What about a good fiber glass stick thats around $30 to 50?
Not sure if anyone has played with it or not, but Eagle's Talon 90 is a top of the line stick for only $150. It only weighs 5 grams more than the RS. I've never used an Eagle stick before though, so I can't comment on how it plays. But feeling it in store, damn, that thing feels great.
Then again, my RS feels pretty good too.
No one does that, kid.
The One95s are tank. Most Sportcheks are clean out, though you should ask an associate to check the computer for you.
Nope. Flex and stick length should be your main concerns.
Agreed, when I see guys buying a pro stock stick I laugh. Those sticks are way too stiff for the average beer leaguer!
...lots of pros use whippy sticks.
lots of pros use selectively whippy sticks, and why i mean is part of the stick is whippy and the rest is stiff

I have to comment on my intermediate Easton ST (09 model for 70$).
I've had it for 3 months now and it's taken a beating in spring league and s&p like I've never put a stick through before. The "shox technology" does create a slight rubbery vibration I had to get used to, but the stick overall has the same performance as my last elite grip. The most important factor going forward for me is durability, and this stick seems indestructible.
For those of you that are saying the AI5 I have a question for you. How are the blades holding up on your stick? I remember Reebok sticks have a problem with the blades chipping pretty easy, even if you taped over them.
