If the arrow is kicking left and up, I think you are underspined and nock point is low. Adjust one thing at a time. I would work on the nock point a little first, and see what happens. If it just looks wrong but flies better, work on the shaft length, and reset the nock where it was. Easier yet, add a much lighter broadhead and see what happens, does the kick to the left go away? If so, then you know you were weak and need to trim.
As far as arrow tuning, I have found starting with a fletched shaft and the broadhead you intend to shoot is easier for me than going the other way. As long as you are close to where you need to be on shaft spine and length, leave it a little long and add the broadhead. If it's weak, as expected, trim and do it again. Once you get it close play a bit with the nock, although after some experience, this is usually pretty consistent. Sometimes just a little adjustment and they shoot great, sometimes trim a touch more and it will come in perfect. With Hill bows, nocking above the nock will often help get rid of some of the arrow flight issues as they seem to fly better and be less sensitive of spine when nocked above the nock point.
If you already are close with field points, add the broadhead and play with length from there. If you are pulling the head to the bow already, you might have problems if the shafts are weak, and just need a lighter head. If you left room, you can usually get it right in there.
Also, try cock feather in.
