AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Nexus E4 is way more affordable and gives you three curve options to dial in your shot, while the True HZRDUS is a genuine pro-spec stick locked to one NHL pattern with a low kick for instant release. Pick the Bauer if you want flexibility and value; pick the True if you want exactly what an NHL player uses and don't mind paying for it.
