I was just thinking how cool it would be if a butt and a shaft were both entirely out of thuya burl, for example.
This may be dumb, but it got me thinking: Why don't they use more types of wood for the shaft (especially playing cues as opposed to designated break cues)? I assume it's because of the weight.
I know purple heart is used for break cues. How is shooting with a purple heart shaft, in general? What are your experiences playing with shafts made "non-conventional" woods?
