Balancing a prop dynamically is like getting the alignment done on
your car. You do it, only way to know if it was out, is if it is
better after you do it.
Anyway, just do it, it will probably help.

Since I purchased my Cherokee, there has been a slight vibration in it
while running and flying. The first mechanic I had went for a ride
with me and immediately said the prop needed a "balance" job. BRBR
A prop shop can static balance the prop out of the plane and most can dynamic
balance it once it is installed.
Second mechanic isn't correct.
However, there are limits to the level of balance to be acheived.
