Research first. Commerce second.
Some StickDNA pages may include links to retailers, marketplaces or pro-stock sellers. When a link is marked as an affiliate link, StickDNA may earn a commission if you make a qualifying purchase. This does not increase the price you pay.
What never changes
Affiliate relationships do not determine a player's recorded build, curve, flex, confidence level, evidence grade or research conclusion. Commerce links live in a separate data layer from StickDNA evidence.
Retail equivalents are not pro builds
A recommended retail stick or retail curve is a buyable comparison. It should not be read as a claim that the retail product is identical to a player's pro-stock construction. When StickDNA has evidence for an actual pro-stock listing, that evidence is recorded independently in the research system.
Sponsored placements
If StickDNA later accepts a paid placement from a retailer or seller, it will be labelled as sponsored. Sponsored placement cannot purchase a higher research confidence level or alter StickDNA's independent equipment conclusions.
Availability and pricing
Marketplace inventory, retailer availability and prices can change quickly. StickDNA may remove or disable links that are stale, unavailable or no longer useful.
