Hockey Sticks - Which is best?

Wood vs Composite, Big Curve or Little Curve, Square or Round tip?
My question is more about performance and stick handling than cost but of course cost does factor in, which stick is the best for younger players - Pee Wee and below?
Pros and Cons????

First of all it is preference. If you like the big curve or straight blade it's all preference and it's different for everyone. Second, in mites and squirts the type of stick doesn't matter as much but when you move into Bantams and Highschool you have to pay attention to flex and other details.

The NikeBauer One95. Naslund curve is very nice. Before peewees the stick won't make much of a difference though. I'd go with grip but it's personal preference.

I think it all depends on what you like. It's different for every player. I personally like a big curve on a Sherwood RM 19.

Anybody know anything about the new O-stick? How about the S-17, is the only thing they changed the color? What are the new improvements on the Warrior Kronik 2?

I have a high school player and a peewee player and we have gone through a number of different composite sticks. If you are a higher end player and looking to spend $150+ you cannot beat the Bauer 190/195's. Best stick on the market hands down. You will go through 3 S-17's to one 195.

The best stick is the one held by the kid that works out/lifts weights/shoots pucks all summer.
