“The flex rating may have also been changed. Again, with a 100 flex it offers a great deal of give, which in turn helps power through your shots. Even though I didn’t notice the stick flexing as much, it was definitely apparent in the photos my teammate had taken.”

It seemed like you were saying that you expected a 100 flex stick to give a lot, but 100 is very stiff stick and won’t give very much. You have to really lean into it to get it to give. That’s the only part I was referring to. Anyway it sounds like a great stick. I cracked my Mission composite last night. Maybe I’ll buy one of those. They’re probably upwards of $200 so maybe not.

My comparison was more of what I felt between the two different Easton models and nothing more. I have sticks that had a lower flex rating and I felt they whipped too much and forced shots high. Not to mention if you put too much into a shot, you will snap a shaft.

If the way I wrote this up misrepresented that, it was not my intention. I thought that because I mentioned the stick used previously earlier in the article, it would be enough to make my point.

Turns out, the engineer did say that they changed the shaft slightly and it could have been what I felt. Let’s not forget that each and every stick will not be the same as the next either, which he also points out.
