Best Answer

The type of wood you use in the construction of your cue will determine whether the cue will be softer hitting or harder hitting. For instance, Ebony and Cocobolo produce a similar hitting cue - hard rather than soft. Rosewood makes for a softer hitting cue. A cue made from Bocote will fall somewhere between.

What is the difference in pool cues between fiberglass and wood?

The big differences are cost, lifespan, and workmanship. Fiberglass cues are generally high volume production cues and are therefore very cheap. Fiberglass cues generally will not warp. Fiberglass cues cannot have any intricate designs or workmanship (what you see is what you get), and generally will never be worth as much as their purchase price as a used cue. Wood cues cannot be made as quickly as fiberglass and therefore usually will usually cost more. Well made wood cues can last a lifetime if properly maintained, but require care. Wood cues can have a wide range of workmanship, with the above average cues typically inceasing in value as they get older. The action of the tip and shaft on contact is much different between different wood cue designs, and different again with fiberglass - this requires getting used to the difference for anything other than a straight on shot. The feel and playability is very different between fiberglass and wood and many experienced players will not play with a fiberglass cue.
