The pinch, the weight, the company, the scoop, the sidewall, the throat, the number of stringing hole, the placement of stringing holes, the plastic, the flexibility, the shape, the size...
I can go on.

The Answer is actually a good head for the price. Its also one of Brine's lightest heads (.1 oz heavier than the truth)

Firstly, it has the warrior name on it, so you know it'll cost like 500000000 dollars. I prefer Evo Pro because the Answer has crazy warping problems, or so i hear.

i have both the answer and the evo pro. i recomend the answer. it has a nicer pinch and is lighter. the only fault of it is that it is kinda hard to scoop with. the evo pro is ok it is almost impossible to get no lip and it is known for warping.

Revo Pro. It's basically a stiffer evo pro.
I had an Answer for a full season and it isn't close to warping. Don't listen to people who say, ".. Or so I've heard."

The Evo Pro is by all means NOT a back-up stick. It is commissioned for full-time play only, and does not deserve to sit on the sidelines while a Proton Power gets playtime. If you are looking for a back up, go with the Answer. If you are looking for a head that will evolve your game, go with the Evo Pro.

I have both an my Evo Pro actuall warped sooner than my answer. The Answer has IMO a little bit nicer of a pinch for middle pockets where Evo Pro's are pinched really low for low pockets. Evo Pro is Stiffer than The Answer and the scoop is better than the answer to

Only reason I would not reccomend the Evo is if you take faceoffs. It warps rather quickly. Otherwise, I would go with the Evo, it is a lot stiffer which is pretty much better for all positions.

they both warp. answer is less money. its actually around 1/2 the price. so get the answer, and when it warps, get another one. instead of getting an evo for 2x the price, and then when it warps get another for 2x the price again. yes. i said WHEN it warps. they both WILL warp, especially if you play hard, especially on defense. my friend's answer warped while throwing a poke check when riding a d-pole, and mine warped when i threw a slap check while playing midfield. my same friend warp his evo-pro throwing a pokecheck riding again. and one of the d-middies on our team warped his on defense as well. gigo also warped his evo pro and posted a thread on that.
so the answer is lighter and has a better pinch than the 2nd gen evo pros, makes a middle pocket and is 1/2 the price. get that. or the profile, which is better than both because it combines the goodness of both of them. pinch and weight like evo pro, without the lip or warping. goodness.

I will just say this, since I have posted my advice in a couple of other threads on this exact same subject before- I used to own both. When it was time to sell one, I kept the answer, sold the evo pro...Maybe that will help you some.

i've used both, and i prefer the answer. mine hasn't warped yet and i prefer the shape of the answer (i play with the answer in 90-100 degree weather, it still hasn't warped). the answer is based off the guru trick stick if that makes any difference to you. i have an answer and a revo pro and i think the scoops are pretty much the same.
