At a glance
The Pro Blackout is way more affordable at $180 and slightly lighter at 350g, but gives you only two flex options and nine curve choices. The Sherwood Code is pricier at $220-260 USD but offers eight flex options, a round shaft for better power transfer, and blade tech designed specifically for playmakers who value puck feel over raw shot power.
