Pick the True Catalyst 9X3 Pro Stock Tomas Lavoie

  • You shoot hard enough to handle 105 flex and want the exact build Tomas Lavoie uses in games
  • You prefer a pure mid-kick feel for heavy, accurate shots over versatile performance
  • You want the lightest, stiffest pro-grade layup available

Pick the Warrior Alpha LX3 Comp

  • You need flex choices because you're not sure what works for you yet or want to dial in your exact preference
  • You want two blade curve options instead of being locked into one pattern
  • You're willing to accept slightly heavier construction to get way more customization at the same price point
