I use TK field hockey sticks. My indoor is a TK Classic 2.2, and I really like it. For outdoor sticks, I would suggest a Grays, a Kookaburra, or a TK. Grays are great all-around sticks, Kookaburras are great looking and good drivers, and TKs are great offensive sticks. Hope this helps! :)
probably be fine, but a lot of defenders these days tend to get sticks with a low and big bow, for aerials, as they can suddenly start a suprise attack and also get you out of danger. i recommend the grays gx7000 jumbow as it has the maximum legal bow, and is dead easy to aerial/drag flick with
no, it just means its shoter than regular sticks. it is just as good as other sticks that arent junior sticks
some good quotes for field hcokey are-- *kiss my kilt *if you cant play nice play field hockey *dont you wish you are girlfriend could play field hcokey like me *we arent just chicks with sticks.. we got balls too .
tape, a puck and sometimes wax.
The length of the stick is important. Make sure your stick of choice reaches your hip bone area while holding the stick upright on the ground, against the side your leg. Hockey sticks that are too long or short are uncomfortable to play with. Also make sure the stick's grip is very firm between the hands, better grip means better control of the ball. Its usually best to ask some field hockey players what kind of sticks they like and then maybe go out and try some to see if it suits you. Sticks are designed differently with many different makes like Grays, Malik, Mercian, TK, Slazenger, Dita, Gryphon and even Adidas now... If you can go to a hockey outlet and try the sticks before you buy them, then that is the best way to go as buying a hockey stick is like buying Trainers or Clothes, it all depends on how comfortable you feel with it.t depends on what you want. If you want a stick for dribbling then any lightweight stick with a good head will do fine. If you want one for flicking, aerials and so forth get a stick with curve. The more the better. However the more you have then it can become less good when dribbling. If you are a big hitter then you want a stick that is strong and durable with a good amount of curve. grays are probily the most durable of all so you might want to go for one of them. Before you buy your stick know what you want. I strongly recommend going on all the major makers: Voodoograysgryphonditamurcial When you choose your stick i very strongly recommend you go to barrington sports (just type it in on Google) As when i got my stick that website saved me a fortune!
You should research the sticks online before buying them. There are several good, strong hockey sticks available online. Also, check Sports Authority and speak with the employees there, They are normally experienced.
stick and safety
The Nike Bauer sticks have good flex for slapshots and ristshots.
It will probably be OK, but if you are a serious field hockey player, you would not use an indoor stick on the turf nor use your turf stick indoors. It is not OK to use an indoor stick outside. When you want to shoot the ball you might break your stick because it is too thin. It is ok cuz there isn't much difference between them.
Be really good ;P
