Finding the Right Junior Hockey Stick Flex for You

A lower flex number indicates more flexibility, beneficial for quick wrist shots, while a higher number suggests a stiffer stick, suitable for powerful slap shots. Players should consider their playing style and position to determine the flex that best suits their needs.
