At a glance
The Tacks XF 70 is way more affordable and gives you a wider curve selection, but the Project X is noticeably lighter by a massive 145g and loads faster for quick-release shots. If you are newer to hockey or on a budget, the XF 70 makes sense, but the Project X is a legitimate performance stick at a higher price.
