I go thru spells where my groups are 2 inches tall and 10 inches wide, say for eight arrows at twenty yards. Then they will mysteriously tighten up and look good without me consciously changing anything. After a while they widen back out. Distributed both sides of the mark evenly....any ideas? I definitely miss left/right more than up down. Have had others watch and nobody sees anything obvious, so I figure must be one hand or the other?

No, no idea. Based on the information you gave, anyone venturing an answer should go on your ignore list. Just sayin'

I thought there might be common culprits that cause left/right inconsistency.

Hi Oak,
2 things I have found cause this issue. I am left handed. When I pluck the string on release I tend to group to the left. Then when I am moving my bow arm I have the exact same issue but to the right. If I do this a few times I consciously stop myself, slow down my shot process and I get back to center. It is a pretty easy issue to identify and correct.
The reason you are stringing right to left is inconsistencies in your shot process. You just don't see it so pronounced. That is why you are getting left right shots and you are consistent on your elevation.

Jimmy Blackmon told me that if your bow arm is solid you can get away with a lot

As Fred Asbell said "for every action there's a reaction".Make sure you keep pushing with your bow arm straight at the spot you're trying to hit.

He's right.

I agree with Anthony aka Viper. The most important factor is how long you have been shooting. It took me about 8 years to be consistent. We live in an age of unrealistic expectations.

To be a little clearer. It's most likely form error(s). But exactly which one, or a combination of which can't be determined by your post. If you wear glasses, another issue enters the mix.
Viper out.

I think part of what Jimmy was saying that works for me is that if you are thinking about too many things, you'll be flinching/not focusing.
If I focus on bow arm, everything else falls into line. I don't have to think about extension, follow through etc.

From the video you posted it's a simple answer, you have the bow upside down. LOL.
Agreeing with Viper, we have no idea with out seeing you shoot.
