At a glance
The FT8S is a higher-end intermediate stick with more proven construction and a broader player base, while the HSM Pro Blackout is way more affordable and sized for juniors with a much wider curve selection. These two sticks are actually targeting different age groups, so the choice here is mostly about fit and budget.
