Wood, Can shave it down. I like a smaller handle and something not so square.

would a wood handle affect the balance of the stick?

For the little amount that most people have after they put a plug in {after cutting}, I can't see it making too much of a difference in stick performance. i don't know too many people that use the entire plug though, most only have a few inches left when done.

Mod, yeah it affects the balance and the flex a little bit, too. I've gotten so used to it that even if I'm using a stick that's the right length, I'll cut it down a bit and put the wood plug in. All personal preference.

They are tapered down, so they are skinnier in your hand. People have been doing it for years, before it was shaving down the handle of your wood stick, then it was shaving down the wooden extension, and now companies are making composite ones already shaven and tapered.What's the deal with tapered composites?
Plz explain

I should start making some in my composites class. Seems like they would be cool.

probably yes, but maybe no.
There is a lot of stuff that goes into the production of a composite part. A lot of materials to buy.
