At a glance

The Pro Blackout is way more affordable and gives you a full range of flex options and curves to experiment with, while the True HZRDUS is a locked-in pro-spec stick built for one specific flex that costs more but matches what NHL players actually use. Pick the Blackout if you want flexibility and budget room, pick the True if you know you want that exact NHL low-kick feel and have the strength to handle 90 flex.
