What do you find better cut past center or cut before center for when you are tuning bows you build?

I think
The faster the bow the more of a center shot you need

The wright arrow spine means the most
I would rather fail at something above my means, than to succeed at something  beneath my means

I don't find much difference in terms of ease of tuning either way as long as I'm within maybe +/- 3/32" of center.

I usually don't measure honestly, I just get it pretty close to center.
