I'm a dedicated Easton fan, I've tried the CCM's, the Total Ones, etc. Nothing feels as whippy and precise as an Easton. I prefer to take quick snap shots than slap shots, I currently have a few MAKO 110 flex and they're perfect. I agree that the durability is pretty bad as I go through about 3-4 sticks in a season, I'm on the ice with practice and games about 3-5 times a week. I just buy prostock sticks and cut them to my length to save $$, no real noticeable difference from retail sticks.

I remember 2 or 3 years ago, watching the Canucks play, I would see 5 - 6 broken sticks a game and Don Taylor would make his usual remarks about how they didn't go to Cyclone Taylors to buy their sticks.

I'm pretty rough with my sticks due to the style I play. I had my first Sher-Wood SL825 break on a poke check play, I had someone fall on and break my Simmons 9970. A shot shattered my composite Bauer TotalOne 4 games in, slap shot broke my last Sher-Wood SL825 at the handle, a foot below top of the knob.
Now I'm on a 27" RBK 8K composite, with a Sher-Wood P9950 foam core as a backup.
I'm going poor from all the sticks =(
NOW, Got shot in the throat back on monday. So I got this: http://www.hockeycorner.de/bilder/pr...or-2013-14.jpg
Lots of heat buildup, but feel safer instead.

If I was a pro, I would probably use Easton, TBH

The few times I ventured to RBK and Bauer I couldn't shoot worth a damn and didn't want to re-learn.
