Patrick,
As you know, I am a proponent of utilizing shaft orientation technology and will not play with any club that has not been "spined". While with some shafts the effect might be negligible, others may be impacted significantly. In essence, I feel that it insures that poor results are swing related and not equipment related. As bbftx states, it's another part of the formula in achieveing uniform behavior throughout your bag. As stated by Tom Wishon, one of golf's leading equipment researchers and developers after being involved in the original pioneering of the technology that led to SST puring,
"I can tell you that most definitely we were able to make the same shaft hit the ball with visible differences in shot dispersion for different installation orientations in the same exact head."
The whole spining, Pureing, floing, orientation debate can get quite technical and I recommend going to the Wishon site for a complete review.
