AI Breakdown

At a glance

The FlyPro is noticeably lighter at 400g and costs $30 more, while the HZRDUS 5X5 is way more affordable and offers a much wider flex selection across both senior and intermediate sizes. Both run low kick with similar curve options, so the real decision comes down to budget, shaft feel, and how much that 16g weight difference matters to you.
