The position you play will have a lot to do with what "the best" lacrosse shaft/head combo is.

For shafts:
Attack and short-stick midfield:
I recommend any of the composite shafts by Harrow:

These can be used with heads made by any manufacturer.

Defense/long-pole middies:
Harrow makes a good one, but I prefer Warrior's Titanium shafts.

Goalies, I'm of the opinion it doesn't matter too much since you don't do much checking (where a titanium, alloy, or composite shaft is needed), and the odds of a lacrosse ball denting even an aluminum shaft are slim to none.

For heads:
Attack and short-stick middies usually prefer lighter, offset, narrow, flexible heads like the Brine Edge, or the Warrior Razer Pro or Finalizer. Pocket preference varies, though a lot use mesh, traditional stringing is still popular as is the "Rock-It Pocket".

Defense/Long-pole middies usually prefer stiffer, thicker sidewalled, average width heads, with mesh/durable mesh pockets.

Goalies vary in heads some prefer solid sidewalls and others prefer open, 99% use mesh/durable mesh, but once in a very great while you see one with a traditional pocket.


It basically comes down to personal preference. Just because you spend $400 on a stick doesn't make it necessarily the best. How it feels and handles as you cradle and shoot is going to be the best way to figure out what shaft is best for you, so feel free to experiment (i.e. borrow a friend's stick at practice).

As far as websites, there's:

Harrow Lacrosse - http://www.harrowsports.com
Lacrosse International - http://www.laxzilla.com
Great Atlantic Lacrosse - http://www.lacrosse.com
Lacrosse Unlimited - http://www.lulax.com
Lacrosse Monkey - http://www.lacrossemonkey.com
They all have toll-free phone numbers, so call them and talk to their specialists. Tell them your position and playing style (conservative or agressive) and they can make recommendations. Hope this helps you out some.

ok harows suck they are light, ill give them that but they break easilly if your a decent player anyway...

ok i have been playing lacrosse for many years now, and am playing at state leval in the U.S. I also use alot of stx sticks too but my favorite brand is Brine because of the durability, lightness and the look of them. If you want to go for an all around good stick i would go with the brine/ mikey powell swerve. It is my main stick and it has lead me to score many goals with it. It is one of the lightest heads on the market yet it is durable the price ranges but it is usually around 90 or 80 strung up.
The other stick that i really like is the warrior razer 2.0. It is a really sweet head, even better than it previous head the razer. it is a very good head for attackmen and middies, as well as the swerve.
As far as handels go the way to go is with the warrior titan pro or the titan classic. these are two of the strongest yet the lightest heads nown to the game. Oh yeah a good website for cheap sticks is www.lacrosse.com its a really great site.
Good luck with lacrosse, its a sweet sport..
