It really doesn' t make a difference but fletching can be used to play with spine.You can move the fletching forward and shoot a slightly weaker spine.I don' t do this but have been told by some pros that they have done this to get a shaft to react stiffer.The main reason I said to shoot a fletched arrow was to make double sure there was no contact but you can do that from further back,doesn' t really matter.
Just something I like to do to see what is going on at several distances.

RE: Spine /Center shot
AK,I agree that a weaker spined ARROW will perform best when moved slightly away from center but for me,I don' t perform better when the arrow isn' t being shot at or close to center shot.The arrow comes off straighter but the shooter has to be able to hold the bow on the spot.When the arrow is at an angle coming off the bow you must compensate as the shooter.I feel like I am shooting across my body and can' t get good groups.The results are a lot of lefts and rights.I don' t know if this makes since or not
One of the main reason that we need to group tune is to find out where we like to shoot.
