I have a question regarding the hydro-orientation, if you determine the high point by hydro-orientating and then remove a sizeable amount of wood as you do with a darter or slopeheads, wouldn't that change the orientation even slightly? the grains are not straight, or is the change small enough to be insignificant or off-set with a little weight in the belly? just curious...is the ho just getting you as close as possible to the most favorable orientation even if it is altered slightly through drilling and trimming?
