Shooting form is critical to consistency, most important is a consistent anchor point. After that is full draw length every time and lastly is have a focus point. What length arrow are you shooting? Is your bow a center shot bow? Are you shooting carbon arrows? These are a few basics to know if you what any help from the guys here. A few basic though base on what you explained. Too long of an arrow will show weak spline, especially if your bow is not a center shot bow. Shortening the arrow will stiffen it and help. Also adding weight to the arrow forward of center (foc) helps strengthen the spline, this is easier if you shoot carbon arrows, if your shooting wooden shafts there is a little more involved. You should be shooting a 350-400 spline arrow. Also, I’d lower the string nock, try 1/2” - 5/8” nock high to start with. For recurve shooting your tuning the arrow to the bow. Also, arrows tuned to your compound will probable not work. There are many variables. Don’t give up, but it will take some time. This may help explain a few things https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OYH7nGwOtE&list=WL&index=4&pp=gAQBiAQB

Without seeing you shoot, it's impossible to pin point the issue.

Strong nock high with bare shaft or fletched arrow?
What is your true draw length?
What arrow length, bop, are you using?
Anything stiffer than 500 size, unless you have a really long true draw, is too stiff.
