This same vid but with Bauer sticks like the ag5nt,sync and hyper lite would be awesome since they don’t do supreme anymore. Would be interesting to see how the mid kick does against the standard vapor and the advanced vapor
That is if your only metric is shot speed. A lot of people get a better release with their shots given a different kick point. I personally have a better shot with a supreme than a nexus ( better release and more contol) I think that If you tried all the sticks you would find one you prefer, especially if you left the radar gun out of it
Id really like it if you guys did a vid describing how the different kickpoints feel in comparison to each other. This would be a great help to those who haven't gone through an arsenal of hockey sticks and figured out how each kick point feels and what they like best. As someone who's likely going to be looking at new sticks for the next season, Id really like to be able to figure out if I want to try a new kickpoint, or stick with what I've been using.
If I could give this video two thumbs up, I would. Great to see a comparison of the sticks by category of the three different shot types. Moreover, adding the radar gun to it just makes the video so much better. I still value Tommy's opinion, but it is nice to get a scientific read out. The biggest takeaway I got from this video is that the sticks perform pretty much within range of each other. All else being equal, you might eke out a couple mph depending on stick and shot type. But overall, it's not like the ASV Pro is blowing the Trigger 7 out of the water in terms of slap shots. I look forward to seeing you guys do the same test on Bauer and maybe Sherwood sticks. What would be really great is if you can do a comparison between the budget friendly sticks vs the higher end sticks. I want to know how much double to triple the price is buying me! Don't know if you are planning to do this, but it would be wonderful to see a comparison video between the sticks for stick handling. After watching so many stick reviews from various UA-camrs, stick handling seems like an afterthought in many of them. Maybe Tommy can go through a simple obstacle course and rank the sticks by puck feel, control, passing, pass receiving, sauce passing etc. In any case, great job on the video. Keep it up!
Broke my stick. I’m a right winger who loves to take snap shots from the top of the circle and at the red dot. Should I get a trigger 7 pro or AS V pro?
@@calvinilkay1067 in this video it's in MPH not KMH though. I have the same as them and in KMH I got 126kmh or 78 mph. Impossible this guy has just 60.
Buy a bushnell radar gun and try again, those cheap radar guns give really inconsistent results and is trash if you actually want to know how hard you shoot.
Whilst you compared the 3 top of the line sticks I seem to miss a bit of info here. Player metrics (weight and height) and stick flex. Did you mention that? Of course I assume all three sticks were same flex. and curve - say 85 flex P28
I like the idea of the video concept however, I am not entirely confident in the results. The radar gun being used is known to produce unreliable data. A buddy of mine tested it and similar results to what you found were witnessed however, when testing using a bushnell radar the results were vastly different. ~15 mph difference between clappers and wristers. Again I really like the concept of the video however, I’m a bit concerned that the results don’t reflect ground truth.
So as fun as this vid is.. it’s a flawed test. There are so many of the test parameters have too many variables. Not to mention that the radar that they are using really is not a reliable radar and the fluctuation point between readings are crazy. Also by soli using the highest speed clocked instead of a accumulation of all five shots, removing the highest and lowest numbers and finding the accurate average speed. Would be a better way to run this test … also blacking out the stick so there is no category biased and also maintaining a designated shot point would further more add real value to this type of testing ..but with all that bull shit being said … great video boys loads of fun …
It wouldn't be since that radar gun is basically trash, you could see it from the fact that the closer the shot was to the radar the harder it counted, they should get a proper radar like the bushnell or pocket radar.
@@AlanenJ that's unfortunately true of most consumer-available radar guns. Depending on how the gun is designed, one object coming at "angle A" will read differently than another object coming at "angle B" ... even though they are traveling at the same speed. Other than insuring that every puck moves relative to the radar position the same way on each shot ... the only other way to mitigate that is by averaging the shots (with the assumption that over the course of the shots the same variances of angles will be recorded). Of course ... the over all point is that 5 shots taking the highest reading is a poor test.
Can't trust the radar as it often registers the actual swing speed of the stick as opposed to the puck. I've got one and it's easy to fool it just by swinging your stick (i.e. without hitting a puck).

I don’t think you can grade which is best at what off of one shot personal bests. It would probably be more accurate to calculate the averages, then you also have to account for him starting to fatigue as it goes on

What I take from this is….Basically it actually doesn’t matter what stick you buy when you’re not a pro.
Exactly

Even if you are a pro it doesn't really mean much and it's all about preference and how you like the feel to be in terms of kick point
@@Chanmantroop10100% Ovi would still score a bunch of goals no matter what stick

The 68mph on the wrist shot was almost directly at the radar. That will make it read higher.
ye they aren’t accurate i hit 65 when i was 10 lol
@@Colbyw74maybe km/h, but I call cap
Great idea, this radar gun is too sketchy to get anything accurate & repeatable
one thing crazy is that an NHL player's wrist shot is an average 80-90, Bedard hit an 87 mph
Do you have a video of where he shot 87?

I think one reason the slapshots weren't as crazy were because of the curve. Something like a P29, W05, W01, etc. do much better with slapshots.
What curve was it? And the p29 and w01 are like complete opposites no?
@@SEAL7471 No, the P88 is closer, but they're all neutral curves. They don't create much lift and are gradual curves with large sweet spots.
@@TheGreatChrisB the curve doesn’t matter as long as you’re good with it

I have a question
Is trigger 7 pro good for defensman ?
Just a video Idea, you should try spray painting the bottom of your stick white, test it out and tell us how Tommy feels about it
Great video cab you do this with warrior as well please

I'd think the average speed of each would be more informative than the 1 shot max.

Do it with Bauer now
you need to release from the heal and not the toe
what feels most consistent after shooting all those in a row tho, which felt best and why
It's the shooter, not the stick. Although the right stick helps.
So...basically you can buy any of these sticks and get pretty much the same results
Ya that’s why it’s better to get something cheaper
It’s not the stick it’s the player
