shoot_the_goalie 281 Report post Posted December 10, 2017 Wondering for those who have used both models. What's the differences in terms of balance, flex, flex point, feel, etc? Which do you prefer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darkhors 88 Report post Posted December 12, 2017 See my review of the original here: I own the ACF right now too and the biggest difference between them is the balance is noticeably more even compared to the original and the blade is supposed to be more durable because they're using the BRT in the blades just like in the A series. I've been very happy with both sticks but I definitely prefer the ACF just because of the balance. Both sticks are really nice and it's hard to pass up the original at the current price point. Lastly, both have been really durable too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darkhors 88 Report post Posted December 14, 2017 Yeah, I use(d) 85 flex in both. No difference there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enis750 48 Report post Posted December 15, 2017 I also did a long term review on the XCF. I loved this stick when new, it was actually one of my favourite sticks I've ever used. But it wasn't super durable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
