Hockey Sticks

   Did you know, a "top notch" hockey sticks these days range from $200-300?  Also, young players as little as 3 years old are using these, and in my opinion this is a waste of money.  Of course, if you are in the big leagues, you could greatly benefit from these professionally engineered sticks, but, as young children, there is no benefit.  This is because they do not play many times per week, and they are not strong enough to use the flex of the stick.
   How do you think it feels ripping a $300 check in half?  That is what it is like breaking a good stick these days. This also happens too often.  For $300, I, and many others, would expect everything you could want in that stick.  This includes the quality of the stick.  With our modern day technology we can make better sticks that do not break, rather than the ones now that, yes, they are good, but break way too often.  For example, I have broke 3 sticks in 4 months.  I have wasted my money on this.
On average, NHL players go through 24-36 sticks per year.  That is spending as much as $10 800 each year. This is for one player only.
   These need to be made better, the problem needs to be fixed, or, they need to cost less.  Many people have this problem and it is very inconvenient.

These are top of the line hockey sticks, ranging from $250-300.
