U+ CL problem

[Kezetto 0]

Hello, I bought a U+ CL few weeks back now along with a One95 and for some reason I can rarely raise the puck when taking slap shots. Everything is fine with snap shots, I just point where I want it to go and it does it. When I take slappers with the One95 everything is fine the problem is just with the CL. The curve on it is a Tavares and on the One95 a Malkin, so nothing massively different. Only thing maybe I can think is the blade on the CL is really long? So maybe that's causing a problem ?

So does anybody have an idea what I'm doing wrong ? Thanks :)

I'm currently trying to use an S17 coming from Dolomites (pretty similar pro-stock curves) and I'm having trouble getting a decent shot with the S17 which has a good rep for being a shooters stick. All's I can think of that is that I'm not so good with a mid-kick point, maybe you're the same. I'm pretty sure the U+ is low and the One95 is mid? Like everything I'm sure it'll just take some getting used to, I'm sure I'll have to tweak my technique a little.

Follow through. You might be in the habit of stopping your slapshot after contact with the puck. This is the thing I love the most about the U+ CL. If I cut down on the follow through....my slapper stays low. If I follow through and bring the stick up with the shot...it goes high.

the tavares curve is more mid than the malkin, so make sure you're rolling the puck off the toe of your stick.
