I bought one of each. The Bocote color and grain was easier to see but other then that they both play great.Both my boys are in college starting next week and they use these cues at a small pool room on campus. good luck with the ne cue and let me know if you like it.

I bought two of these cues for my boys last Dec. The cues hit fantastic and are super straight. I ordered one Bocote and one Rosewood. The Bocote cue looks much better imho.
It might just be the piece of wood that was used on mine but it was very dark and hard to see the color and grain. The guys at Schmelke are easy to work with, if you should want to change wood types there is probably time. Either way you made a good decision with Schmelke. I hope this helps.
