What are the advantages of a graphite or titanium cue?

You can buy them at Walmart. =D I had a graphite cue, the inner core was so phuckin cheap it broke when I hit a break shot with it. As for "top of the line" graphite and titanium cues I couldn't tell ya, cuz I will never touch one again. Seems to me you couldn't possibly attain a lower deflection with graphite or tit as opposed to pure wood. I guess the advantages would be "different looking" and you can drop them wherever you want, maybe even stick them in the local bar's ceiling fan, and if it gets stolen, no big loss. I'm referring to shafts of course, but it might be different for the butts...Maybe someone else will tell you more. IMO stay away from them. The best players in the world have been using wood for years and years, never have I seen a pro use anything else. Just my 2 cents.
