At a glance
The Code Encrypt Pro is noticeably lighter and has a wider curve selection, but the HZRDUS 5X5 is way more affordable and offers a much wider flex range. If weight and puck feel at an elite level matter most, you're paying a $50 premium for the Sherwood, but the True covers more player types at a lower price point.
