Two weeks about I bought a XXXX at 102, and its unreal. Slap shots are way harder, and more feel with the puck.
i find with a 87 stick, my slap shots are harder, but i rarely ever slapshot,
i wrist and snap a lot more, and that's when flexing is a lot more important imo. so a 87 or 102 is WAY too much for me, even though i'm at around 165lbs.

also with the way they made the 2 piece one95's they're 77 flex but they're about 1.5-2" longer than their 1 piece sticks. so when i cut it down it goes to about 82~ flex. but it hasn't gotten here yet, so i'll just wait for now.
