The Bauer Proto2 is built for elite adult players wanting a premium lightweight mid-kick stick, while the HockeyStickMan Pro Blackout is designed for junior players needing an affordable hybrid kick option.
Verdict: Pick the Proto2 if you're an adult player with the budget for elite performance and want the durability of Boron fiber construction. Pick the HockeyStickMan if you're buying for a junior player and need decent performance at a budget price point. The hybrid kick point also gives younger players more shooting versatility as they develop their technique.
