AI Breakdown

At a glance

The FlyLite is noticeably lighter and way more affordable in USD, while the HZRDUS 9X4 brings a double concave shaft and a reinforced hosel that give it an edge in puck feel and durability. Both are low-kick elite sticks, so the real decision comes down to weight savings versus build features.

Pick the True Hzrdus 9X4

  • You shoot in higher flex ranges since the 95 flex option is not available on the FlyLite
