At a glance

The Pro Blackout is way more affordable and noticeably lighter at 400g, giving you a budget option with low-kick feel and two flex choices. The Catalyst 9X3 is a genuine pro stock stick built for mid-kick power and stronger shooters, but locked into one stiff flex with no curve options.
