depends what stick you are looking for, www.icewarehouse.com has the one95 and xxxx in the P91 if you want a high end ops. 87 and 102 are both in stock it looks like.

I was pretty sure the only difference between P91 & P91a is .5 lie difference? If you search there's tons of threads that confirm it...

in fact I have 2 XXXX sticks - a pro stoch with P91a curve & a retail P91 - the curve itself is identical!

Yea, you're right. P91A is a Drury clone. P91 is a .5 off on lie.

I think its a huge difference , the curve feels bigger and it just looks and feels mentally different. It is probably all in my head , but when i compare the 2 it is a huge difference.

I have no idea what you're comparing man, but it sounds like apples to oranges ;)

I can post pics if needed as I have 2 sticks side by side in front of me, and P91 vs P91A looks completely identical at least for bauer sticks!

This summer I bought a Vapor XXX lite P91 curve somewhere down in Toronto. With my bad luck with sticks it broke within the 30 days sent it in and got a P91A Staal in return. Well I'm certainly not going to complain, they warrantied my stick but that's not the question. I ordered 2 more XXX Lites online with the P91 curve. Once they arrived I compared both curves and to me there is a big difference in the two. In the description they seem almost identical but they certainly play differently. I found that the P91A was just a straight blade with a heel curve on it. And my P91's had this kink at the heel of the blade something like this / . I'm sure you understand what I mean. But that .5 difference in the lie makes a huge difference in how this curve plays and handles a puck. I know most of you guys will say just find a heel curve with a higher lie. But my first ever heel curve was the P91. And from this day I cant get used to anything else. the closest I found up to this day is my pro stock Stealth CNT. Its a Drury but it looks like they messed up bad on the curve, because it has a curve on it with the Drury added on haha. I know some of this may sound idiotic to some haha but this is the best I could decribe my situation.

I completely understand where you are coming from. This happened to me as well. I just can't seem to get used to the p91A. I feel there is quite a difference. I am also quite picky when it comes to curves so that adds to it too.
