It is only a starting point if you let it be a starting point, if you stop at 3 yards then its a starting point.
If you continue to 15 yards with a bare shaft and achieve a perfect bullet hole at that distance, I can promise you broadheads and field tips will group at maximum effective range.
The problem with ending your paper tune at 3 yards is that the tear you would have seen at 15 yards, you never get to see so you end up taking your bow out of center to fix that tear that you never saw later in the process as you go to other tuning methods. For a more in depth explanation see "my tuning method overview" article.
Taking a bow out of center makes it less efficient, and less forgiving. Take your time on the front end of the initial set up, and the initial paper tune, and then you have no further work to complete other then to shoot and make a micro adjustment to broadheads of up to 1-2 click. Many people dont realize 1-2 clicks and you are still within 13/16ths.
I have been using this method for a few years now on a couple thousand bows over that time frame and have only had 2 call backs in 4 years ( 1 wasn't even my fault) , mind you over 85% of my business is bows shipped in from all over the country to me. A properly set up bow is forgiving and repeatable across the board even with slight changes in form shooter to shooter.
Tune the bow fix the shooter, bows are machines treat them as such !
