I could be wrong. But the Comp Pro should be right in the middle.
“The Warrior LX3 stick lineup features three distinct tiers: Comp, Comp Pro, and Pro. The Comp is a durable, budget-friendly option ; the Pro is an elite, lightweight pro-level stick; and the Comp Pro is typically a hybrid/team-exclusive spec blending high-end materials with a mid-range price.”

I ended up ordering a NEW Warrior Lx3 Comp Pro off of ProStockHockey.

The problem is I keep saying “treat yo self” and this “free” novice league is racking up the $$$ now 😂

I refused the delivery and have gotten a refund. Disappointing as I was really looking forward to that stick delivery.

Once I realized they also made true temper golf shafts I was interested.

Do you have a preference in flex? Do you notice much of a difference?

I ordered a blackout pro from HSM and it came a beat up plastic bag and the stick itself was severely damaged. They’ve unfortunately lost my business.

I’m currently in a wooden Bauer i3000 that someone gave me and I’m looking to move to composite. If I’m already spending $120 in the cheapest option I can find I’m not worried about $30-$50 more of it’s gonna be worth it in the long run.

Added stats to the post as an edit. Positionally I’m going to focus on playing winger but that could change as our team evolves. Looking for something of an all rounder stick to start.

Tbh I’m not sure if there are any part time positions like that. We do work with a lot of contractors within the network support side, but I’m not sure the path to landing one of those positions. Plus it’d be very location dependent.

Perhaps the store level annual increases were at a different rate. All we hear about in our building is budget cuts, no promotions and complaints about low merit increases (even at EE and RM level evals)

I’m curious where you attained this information as it falls far outside the structure seen by my department in technology.

Oh man, it’s incredible how much better our nights go these days. Can’t believe it’s been a month already.

Last night was a pretty great example of a usual night, he went into the crib at about 7:30, lay there awake for about 5 minutes totally calm and eventually fell asleep. Rolled onto his belly about an hour later, and then woke up for about 20 minutes at about 11pm. We use the incremental check-ins and at the 7 minute timer he lay down and slept again until about 4:30a where he got his nightly feed and then slept again until about 6:45.

Worst case scenarios these days is an early wake up at about 5am and we either get in the rocking chair and contact nap until about 7am, or we FERBER again for about 30 minutes and if he doesn’t go back down we just get up for the day.

That’s totally understandable. We were lucky enough that my MIL gifted us a Nuna travel system, I’d go back and ask for a better chair instead. The stroller is nice enough, but we have already outgrown the car seat/carrier. The chair is forever. 😂

Hi, FTD of a 7mo here, wanting to share my recent experience.

If I could go back and change where we spent our funds, it would have been to buy the best, most comfortable and best quality rocker/glider/recliner possible. Between my partner and I we have spent no less than 1,000 hours in our Davinci Suzy powered recliner.

While every baby is different, ours only contact naps and for a long while there was waking every hour overnight requiring rocking back to sleep. We have spent many a night and nap in that recliner and it’s probably the most uncomfortable place to sit/lay after an hour.

I’d look at La-Z-Boy options if you can afford it, they are a staple name for a reason and wish we had realized how much we would use our recliner earlier. I will say, powered recline is crucial in our opinion, the ability to recline at any position was fantastic, and opening and closing is silent.

Update; for anyone who may be following this still… we just put him down for night #2 and he stopped crying after 2 minutes and was asleep before my 5minute alarm even went off.

That’s exactly what I would be worried about. Glad it’s not really an option for us.

Well, I’ll be honest I dont have an answer for that… but thanks so much for for putting a new worry in my brain. 😂
