1. Look:
Shafts are easily stained when made with
ordinary materials.
2. Warping:
Shafts rested against walls will warp due
to heat and humidity and are often not guaranteed.
3.
No standard:
Traditional wood cues do not often achieve an even horizontal weight
distribution. This poor center-of-gravity makes placing accurate
shots more difficult.
4. Low fatigue resistance:
Traditional cues have a low absorption to vibration. Vibration puts
a cue under stress. This makes a cue less resistant to fatigue allowing
fractures to develop next to the ferrule, joint, butt or inlays.
It then has trouble resisting the high impact strength applied when
shooting and loses a lot of its performance and can even break apart.
