That's the post I remember.
But with this bow its straight unstrung, but strung its twisting towards the thicker side, not the 'weaker' thinner side.
I suppose I could lose some of the hickory back as well, but my gut is telling me to even out the thicker side it is bending towards.....

Have you tried pushing the string across to each side of the nock to see if it makes any difference?
just take a little tension off the string as if you were going to unstring it, and push the string sideways at the nock. Friction will hold it off centre when you put the full tension back on it..
