nutters 218 Report post Posted November 14, 2019 Seeing the promotion for the upcoming trigger 4 pro it looks like only the top of the line stick is being advertised. Normally, the whole line gets teased, but in this case it is only the one stick. Are they only releasing one stick, or will the rest will be announced later?

Only replace the top of the line stick and change the rest every two years. At least thats waht i heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are moving to a 2 year cycle so sticks don't depreciate as fast and it also allows them to cut down on production costs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Read more You should of been more clear that is the direction they are moving to. Based on your wording in your OP it sounded like that 2-year cycles are the way it's always been.

Read more I bought a couple of these, pro stock ones form the ASU D1 team. The kick point seemed the same to me. I did like how light and balanced the stick felt. They definitely took a lot of weight out of the blade. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
