At a glance
The Trigger 7 Pro Stock locks you into Makar's exact NHL setup with a low kick and fast release, while the HSM Pro Blackout gives you way more curve selection and flex options at a lower price point. If you want customization and intermediate-friendly flex ratings, the Blackout has a clear edge; if you want a proven NHL low-kick build, the Trigger wins.
