Identical Prop Change Question

Hello, Bought a flying homebuilt with a wood core composite propeller from a major prop maker. It was flow off of grass for over 200 hours and is a little beat up. IA in next hangar says ok to fly but keep an eye on it. If I purchase the exact same prop. Same model number, same dia and pitch, and same material, is it necessary to do a dynamic balance on the kit with the new prop installed. The plane is very smooth with the existing setup. - Thanks in advance. Walt
 
I would recommend a dynamic balance. No two props are "exactly" alike.
