In order to get the balance and weight right, is it easier to do it with a wrapped or wrapless cue?

Thanks.

It doesn't matter, as long as you cut the Q above the handle. That way you can either core it or add a connecting screw to adjust the weight & balance...JER

When you core a cue do you core do you core the forearm, handle, butt or does it depend on the cue? Also, does coring prevent warping?

You can core both or either, depending on what your goal is. Some think that it does HELP, to resist warping. I personally use a PARTIAL CORING ( 3-5 " on each end, but not all of the way through). I use it for weight & balance control only...JER

It doesn't matter, for both styles of cues there are techniques for balance and weight control. But as for price, my wrap less cue are more expensive than cues that have a wrap. This because of the extra expense of materials involved, the more Nicely figured wood used the more the finished product cost.

Take Care

As Jerry said, you can core front, back or both. As far as preventing warping? I believe it helps but nothing will prevent it.
