Default Paper Tuning ?

I just switched from Goldtip XT 5575 to XT 7595's. I have them fletched with4" duravanes on a right helical from a Bitz jig.

With my new arrows at about 5 feet its a good hole, 10 feet slight tail high left tear, (very slight) at 15 feet back to good tear. My groups from 20-40 yards were good. The guy at the pro shop watched my arrow flight several time from behind me and to the side and then he said that he would just leave it. He said he doesnt mind a small tear and actually both of his bows are set up to have the same slight tear. He said he finds he shoots better that way than with a perfect bullet hole.

This somewhat contradicts what I read here in postsand in magazines. But this guy is an excellent archer so I trust him.

Can anyone explain his theory or have their own theory for maybe not having a perfect bullet hole??

Now that I have thought about it maybe he saw something in my form that caused it so he was not concerned?? Thinking as I get better it will fix it??
