Hey pingskills!

What is a better wood when it comes to good control and speed? Is it hard wood or soft wood? Thanks in advance! :)

Hi Jethro,

For more control I find softer wood better.  For more speed the harder wood is often better.  However, you can get a faster rubber on a softer blame and still get a lot of speed.
