You should get the Hull for sure, if you like whippy sticks. If I wasn't left handed I would use Hull's sticks(OPS)

Only get it if you want the curve in an INT flex. Sounds like it's a senior stick in the normal Bauer INT(77) flex.

That stick is definitely buyer beware. As good as the TFG ops is, if the retail 87 is incredibly flexy I could only imagine what Hull's is like.... Unless you are small or have great technique it will probably be overkill.

my last cupple of sticks have been:

true one- 260 flex

true one 300 flex

1100 ops- 260 flex

Synergy grip-100 flex

do you think it will be a huge change in flexes? i liked the inno 300 flex....

im not scared that the flex is said to be whippy but i wanted t see what you

guys think

If you cut your sticks then there shoudn't be that huge a difference. Be prepared to fan a lot until you get used to the blade tho. I speak from experience :P .

Didn`t Lego buy one of the Hull TFG? Ask him how whippy it is, he`s use alot of differnt flexes adn curves and should be able to help. Also, if he cuts his sticks or not it won`t affect him gettng used to the flex because his othere sticks would be stiffer too. However, I see the logic if he cuts it it will feel less whippy.

I haven't gotten mine yet, which is why I haven't replied. With my pro TPS sticks, I usually don't have to cut them at all. Actually, they're perfect... I just take out the plug. I'm hoping to get mine tomorrow or friday, but don't play until after the holiday weekend, so I might not post anything about it until next week.

well, i got the stick today and i must say im impressed :D . the

curve is insane looking but i love it. the flex is intersting as well.

it feels like a 75-83ish flex. i wont get a chance to use it on ice for

a while but do you think it would be fine if i used the stick

for roller hockey tonite? ill give the stick a good workout for the

next cupple of weeks then ill put up a review!

No whip is more like 70-75. A stiff-whip (pro stock) would be your best bet if you could find one for TPS if you want it like Bauer 87. Otherwise, retail's closest would be the TPS regular.

If that's going off the OPS and not the shaft, I'm going to say that's because OPS tend to feel flexier than what's labeled on there.

The Bauer number are very comparable to the Easton numbers. Keep in mind that each stick may vary a bit and be a couple of points high or low. It also seems like every Easton I've picked up lately has been higher than rated. I tried an 85 flex ultralight that I couldn't flex at all.
