I balance every prop, no matter the size, type or brand! Engines run smoother and produce more power with a balanced prop. It's also easier on the engine, radio and airframe.
The downside of wood props, most require a higher degree of balancing. Wood grain varies a lot more then synthetic materials.

Thank You Rod, you said it better than me.
