At a glance
The Trigger 9 is a senior stick built around a fast low-kick release, while the Blackout Gold Lite is a way more affordable junior stick with a much wider curve selection and a hybrid kick point. If you are a senior player, the Blackout Gold Lite is not even in the conversation since it only comes in junior flexes.
