The gold tip tuning chart shared above is correct. You move the rest towards the broadhead for windage and toward the field point for elevation. In your description, that would be moving the rest left.

Like others have said, with tuning, you do the macro adjustment by moving the cams with the top hats and then minor adjustments with the rest.

You went the wrong direction with your rest, so it may be that just a tiny bit of adjustment in the correct direction will get any broadhead flying true. Exodus is a very good broadhead.

Once they all hit the same, then adjust your sight. Once you’ve become more experienced tuning, you can kind of do both at the same time but even then you will want to do final sight adjustments after all tuning adjustment is complete.

Here is a chart for tuning Mathews bows. Very similar to the gold tip chart, but it has additional information about moving the cams and cam timing, twisting cables and strings,etc as well. Where it shows bare shaft poi, that’s the same as saying broadhead poi.

If you do end up back at your pro shop, and are shooting fletched arrow, stand 3 ft from the paper. It will show a truer tear the closer you stand with fletched. Also shoot a couple of your arrows. Don’t rely on just one as the baseline as it might be slightly different than another. They should all be similar and trend the same, but one may show a very slight tear while another shows perfect bullet hole.
