Pick the CCM Ribcor 96K

  • •You want flex options below 85, since the QR6 Pro only has 85 left in stock
  • •Budget matters and you want a capable low-kick stick at nearly half the price
  • •You want P28 or P29 curves, which are more widely used than Warrior's pattern lineup

Pick the Warrior Covert QR6 Pro

  • •You shoot 85 flex and weight is a top priority, since 85g lighter is genuinely noticeable
  • •You want elite-level carbon construction and are okay buying a clearance 2024 model
  • •You want a longer 60-day warranty versus the Ribcor's 30-day coverage
