At a glance
The Pulse gives you a much wider curve selection, noticeably lighter weight, and a hybrid kick point that blends mid and low kick feel, but it costs significantly more. The Tacks XF Ghost is a youth stick with a single flex option, so this comparison only makes sense if the player is shopping for a young kid on a tighter budget.
