I was wondering if you prefer a light weight bow or heavier weight bow for you viola or cello playing.

I always tend to lean heavier on both. I find them easier for me to produce sound and also to control. I am thunking that when I get better (thinking positive here) that maybe I can go lighter. But I need to feel the bow in my hand and the weight lets me know somewhat what is doing. Does that make sense?
