Flex

[Action Jackson 0]

I'm not sure what flex to use on my sticks. Currently using a 100 on my s17 and i'm pretty sure thats much to stiff.

Height: 6'1"

Weight: 175lbs

Stick Length: 60.5"

I shoot mostly snap shots, but with the ocasional one timer that comes my way. Any and all help is much appreciated.

85-90 might work

you think a 77 might be a little too whippy?

The general consensus on this forum is that those who bought an S17 went up a flex rating when they bought it. Lets say you usually use an 85, then you'd buy a 100 flex S17 because their ratings are after you cut a couple of inches off. Bauers run quite stiff, so maybe a 77 would work for you.

The One95s are definitely more whippy than listed. I'm 6'4 150lbs and i do NOT reccomend a 77 flex for you. But you never know until you try it. Most companies' flexes are different so it would probably help us if you told us what stick you were planning on getting.

You need to cut quite a bit off of a 100 flex S17 to get it to rate at a 100. I promised a third party that I wouldn't divulge the details but the s17 wasn't even close to what was marked on the shaft.

more than likely will be using the easton stealth and synergy series

If the 100 flex S17 is too stiff at close to full length, I would look at the 77 in any other stick.

I dont think the s17 and the upcoming s19 are going to have a 75 flex.

Then you should probably look for another stick
