The Nexus Tracer is a senior elite stick with a noticeably lighter build and a premium price, while the Blackout Gold Lite is way more affordable and offers a much wider curve selection but is built for junior players only. If you are a senior-level player, the Blackout Gold Lite is simply not the right fit regardless of anything else.
