The Nexus E3 is way more affordable at $130 and gives you a much wider curve selection, but it carries a hybrid kick and a heavier feel. The HZRDUS 9X4 Pro Stock is a genuine NHL-spec low-kick stick built for shooters who want a fast release and pro-grade construction, at the cost of zero flexibility in curve or flex choice.
