At a glance
The FT860 is way more affordable and built tough for beginners, but the HSM Pro Blackout Red Lite is noticeably lighter (119g difference you will feel), comes in a much wider curve selection, and uses a proper carbon layup for better performance. The trade-off is basically durability and price versus responsiveness and options.
