At a glance

The Sherwood Code Encrypt has a mid kick that loads easier for snap shots, while the True Catalyst sits lower in the stick and delays energy release for bigger slap shot power. The Catalyst costs $60 less and comes in flex 105 versus the Sherwood's fixed 75, giving you a softer option if you're a lighter player.
