I think some of the confusion came in your wording and the fact of what you are describing is exactly what should happen.  No question or surprise. . .    

I get it now- you are relying heavily for "point on" as your sighting mechanism. So question for you: If you are going to use a sight so concretely why not just put a sight on your bow?  It would make sighting in a whole lot easier than adjusting arrows and weights.  Check out the SRF sighting system.

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.

Here is the twist. I don't look at the arrow when shooting. I am just explaining the difference of the gap, and how that arrow comes off the bow. 125's come off the bow high, the 190's are more direct and to the target.

Not sure then what you are describing or think you are observing.. . but you can not defy physical laws.  Re-read Orion.  He explained it well.

I don't look at the arrow either, but when I shoot those heavy Alaskans I can sure tell where they are pointing on the long shots. My problem is that for some reason, my point on is longer than everyone else that anchors with the middle finger in line with the corner of the mouth.

This would be easier if you tried it for yourself.  Watch that, slightly, higher aimed arrow cast out...  If you were comparing 125's to 190's and kept your shots inside 50yds you would see how little that 7fps difference is on the 35yd shots,  and how much less the arrow hit the twigs that were up a little higher then your peripheral vision allowed...
