At a glance
The Encrypt Pro is a fully loaded elite stick with balanced kick and multiple flex/curve options, while the Catalyst 9X3 is a genuine pro-spec build locked into one stiff mid-kick setup at half the price. Pick the Encrypt if you want customization and all-around versatility, pick the Catalyst if you're a strong shooter who shoots from the mid-zone and don't mind one fixed flex.
