At a glance
The Prototype is noticeably lighter at 285g versus 365g, and somehow also cheaper at $120 versus $130, making it the stronger option on paper for most players. Both sticks share the same kick point, flex options, and blade patterns, so the real difference comes down to that 80g weight gap and the higher-grade 24K carbon in the Prototype.
