Default Arrow nocking and fletching

Hello everyone. I am new to this forum and this is my first post. This is my second year as a bowhunter. I recently purchased a Bowtech Tech29. I have been practice shooting with a Whisker Biscuit arrow rest. I haven't been pleased with what it does to my fletching, so I purchased a NAP quicktune drop away 200 last night. The guy at bass pro installed it for me. I brought in an arrow so he could watch me draw it back. I shoot Easton carbon excel arrows, and I always purchase them online. The always come nocked in a way that my odd colored fletch is pointed out. Here is my question. Whenever the guy at bass pro saw my arrow, he immediately turned the nock so that the odd color fletching was pointed down and said that they should always be pointing down. Does it matter if I am shooting a fall away rest? That really confused me, and now it makes me wonder why my arrows were always delivered with the odd color fletching pointed out. Anyway, I am happy to be on this forum, and I look forward to sharing stories and gaining much bowhunting knowledge from fellow members.

Kevin
