The Proto2 is a fully customizable retail stick with way more curve and flex options, while the Hutton Pro Stock is a single-configuration NHL-spec low-kick stick that's noticeably more affordable. The main trade-off is flexibility versus price: you get more choices with the Proto2, but the Hzrdus 9X4 gets you a proven pro-stock build for less than half the cost.
