AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Proto2 is way more affordable and built specifically for junior players, while the QR6 Pro is a senior-only stick with a much wider flex and curve selection but limited stock. The main trade-off is age range and availability: one is purpose-built for younger players, the other is a discounted elite senior option with just one flex left.

Pick the Bauer Proto2 Junior

  • You are shopping for a junior player who needs 30, 40, or 50 flex
  • You want a mid-kick stick that rewards accurate, powerful shooting
  • You want to save $120 CAD and still get elite-level materials

Pick the Warrior Covert QR6 Pro

  • You are a senior player who shoots 85 flex and want a proven low-kick stick at a discount
  • You prefer a round shaft and a wider blade pattern selection
  • You want a 60-day warranty and are okay buying a 2024 model being phased out
