Mission Fuel stick

Recommended Posts

I searched and couldnt find anything on this topic. so have any of you guys tried the mission fuel titanium (the new model). i saw it at my LHS and loved the feel of it. how is the durability of it? im thinking of buying either that or an older '06 macdaddy.

I use the Fuel Ti.

It is a step below the Titanium.

It is very durable. Ive taken plenty of annoying slashes and hacks to the stick and it barely has a scratch.

The titanium mesh inserts really do their job well. And the concave to convex shape really does its job, as well.

I would only assume the Titanium would be even more durable. The blade on the Titanium has titanium mesh in the blade as well as the shaft.

The Ti does not. It is still very durable.

I've got a Irmen Prostock Ti Pro... the stick has taken some beatings, but stil holding up well. Slapshots really zing as well, rang one off the goalie's cage the other day, shock her up really nice.

I'd pick up more if I had a chance.

The other nice thing is that the Ti is available in a 75 flex senior.

That is exactly what I had. It lasted a good 90 days before the blade broke of all things. A great shooting stick with good durability. Great $150 stick. Personally loved the 75 flex Sundin model.

what does the VDS (vibration dampening system) actully do?

It dampens vibrations. Helps make a softer feeling blade that is still really stiff, doesn't have a pingy feel like Easton, CCM, RBK and lower Bauer sticks I've used.

Fuel Ti > Fuel Ti Pro.

Why do you feel that the Ti is better than the Ti Pro?

The Ti's that I used had much better feel than the Ti Pros. I also felt like the blade torqued-out a bit more on the Pro, and there were no real durablity advantages/disadvantages between the two.

Does anyone know anything about the Mission Fuel SE? Saw them at National Sports here in Canada and have not heard much about them.

At one point the Fuel SE was a repainted Toxic12K. I can't remember reading on here if it was changed or not.

That's odd because they don't play alike at all.

Shaft shape and feel is different on each of those sticks. I personally can't stand the XXXX, the One95 precision tactile was a letdown and I'd need a U+ in T shape. I like the Fuel, but I'm not sold on the soft touch, and shaft feels taller and skinnier than most for me.
