AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Sherwood gives you a balanced hybrid kick with elite carbon construction and two blade options, but costs $65 more and locks you into 85 flex. The True is way more affordable, delivers a low kick built to NHL specs, and suits fast-release shooters, but you get one fixed 100 flex and one curve with no alternatives.

Pick the Sherwood Encrypt Pro Willy Styles

  • You want a middle-ground kick point that handles both snap and load without committing to pure low-kick release timing
  • You value having two blade patterns to match your shooting style and preference
  • You're willing to pay the premium for elite carbon layup and proven Encrypt Pro performance
  • You prefer lighter weight (385g confirmed versus unknown on the True)

Pick the True HZRDUS 9X4 Pro Stock Mark Scheifele

  • You're a quick-release shooter who benefits from low-kick snap and already know 100 flex works for your strength
  • You want genuine NHL-pattern gear at a significant discount
  • You don't need curve options and are fine locking into one build
  • You shoot harder and need the pro-spec stiffness to load properly
