At a glance
The Nexus E4 gives you a much wider curve selection and a hybrid kick point at a lower price, while the HZRDUS 9X4 Pro Stock is built around one specific low-kick, fast-release setup straight from an NHL locker room. If release speed is your top priority and the Mid Max pattern works for you, the True is worth the extra $20, but most players will appreciate the flexibility the Nexus offers.
