RussianPlayer 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2010 Hey guys, could anyone advise the difference between them? I got x20 now pm9 works fine, but I want to get another one with 77 flex, so thinking x40 or x50? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyers10 57 Report post Posted May 23, 2010 X40 is good value for $99. You could try to find a X60 prostock for about $100 but might be hard finding that flex. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stick9 896 Report post Posted May 24, 2010 tsr had a ton of 77 flex x60's in there march shipment. I haven't checked out this months selection.I was up there last week looking for the same thing. No luck in RH.I looked at the X40 while I was there. Seems like a decent stick for the price, little heavier then most but nicely balanced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyers10 57 Report post Posted May 24, 2010 Not to hijack but since I'm thinking about calling TSR for 77 flex X60 I had a question first. Trying to improve my wrist shot and snap shot. Using a 87 flex X60 Lombardi now. Sometimes it seems I can't tell it I'm getting enough flex from the stick or not. Would trying a 77 flex help me to improve my technique on these 2 type of shots?

I feel kinda stupid getting a top line stick that I can't get all the benefit out.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RussianPlayer 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2010 Blades shafts, curves etc. Not sure what you mean by "how come these pro sticks get on ebay"Are they different meaning designed for specific players? Then it would not work for me as I prefer stay with standard stuff as at least I know what it looks like. I was saying if they are made for players how come they get on ebay? it's not the players selling them ;D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The extras are not given to the players themselves for the most part. You can get extremely customized prostock sticks that were made for certain players, or you can get a stick that has a retail curve. TSR has a decent amount of bauer sticks with retail curves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
