Damned-if-he-wouldn't 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2007 I've only been playing as an adult for 6 months or so now but I've become pretty comfortable with the CCM Joe Thornton pattern, I bought my first one for the length but have grown quite accustomed to the blade curve now.The problem is I've been breaking them lately, two in the last month.I'm serious enough now to pony up the cash and grow out of wood sticks to composites, can anyone recommend something in another brand that is pretty much the same curve/pattern?-lloyd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Remman 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2007 Wood patterns don't always exactly match their composite partner. But, the Easton Yzerman is similar but they are few and far between now. Try the pattern database on here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
