What is taught at the WNG class is that the 5+g friction, as we know, is accepted as necessary for wood parts to strike along a clean line and produce desirable tone. When they're drilled, the tiny bit hits grain lines and gets forced off course. That means one bushing opening will always be shaped/sized differently enough to require more bushing tension between the hole and pin to compensate. Pin it too light, and one side will have slop, and it will wander and wobble on the way to the string.

The composite parts are nice because the material is very consistent. Drilling is done similarly, but the results are such that you only need 1-2g for a consistent strike. Ultimately, use your ears with a given set, and figure out what works best. No sense repinning a whole set because that's what you had to do on the last set, if it's not needed on this one.
