What's your take? Help me out here.
I realize that Vater sticks are not as comfortable as Pro-mark sticks, and Vater has a very small variety, most of their sticks being damn big. I kinda like small sticks. Vater's specialty is probably durability, at the expense of variety of sticks to choose from and player's comfort.
Pro-mark, on the other hand, though not as durable, are much more comfortable, have a much wider variety. I can't use any stick thicker than 0.570", otherwise I'll die.
Its easy because here in Singapore, I can get Vater and Pro-mark sticks at exactly the same place. I need to take into account durability, comfort, consistency, feel, weight, etc.
So what's your take? Should I stick to Vater sticks, or switch to Pro-mark?
