At a glance
The CCM Tacks AS-V Pro is way more affordable at $230 with two flex options and curve choices, while the True Catalyst 9X3 is a cheaper pro-stock stick at $160 but locked into one flex and curve. You're paying more for flexibility and availability with the CCM, or saving money and getting genuine NHL spec with the True if that fixed setup works for you.
