Default RE: Pinwheel, et al, tune for high left tear?

Ok, so now I'm confused... I thought the whole deal with drop aways was in addition to allowing total fletch clearance, it made spine less of an issue, not moreso... Muzzy even shows several different spined arrows being shot on their video, and I think they do at their demonstration booths as well.

Is this really an issue to consider on a true hunting set up where shots are limited to 30 yards? Assuming arrows are properly matched, say Accs for instance, and a drop away is shooting bullet holes, would you expect acceptable groupings at 30 yards?

Also, what is so magical about the 11 o'clock tear if all you are trying to do is give the arrow something to recover from. Wouldn't any slightly out of perfect setting do the same?

I guess I'm having trouble understanding why spine, straightness and weight matched arrows wouldn't fly to the same spot from a bullet hole tuned bow...
