At a glance
The Trigger 7 Pro Stock gives you a genuine NHL-grade build with Makar's exact pattern and flex, but locks you into one setup at a much higher price. The HSM Value Blackout is way more affordable and offers a much wider curve selection, though the 500g weight and carbon construction are a step down in quality.
