Default How to determine prop speed

Guess I was asleep in logic and physics class 65 years ago so I have to ask;
When using a prop meter to determine RPM does it matter where on the prop the meter is aimed.
We find that there is a difference in RPM if the meter is at the tip than if midway from tip to center of prop.
