So I've only played Box lax for a little while but I've already seen numerous shafts snapped, even one of my own. So that I wouldn't have to keep getting new shafts, I decided to do a little looking around and I've narrowed my choices.
I'm deciding between:
A gait Orange Crusher
A gait Gorilla (If I can find one)
A MIL TI (thats Mohawk lacrosse for those of you who don't know)
A Warrior Fatboy
I'd rather go with one of the first three since they are a quite a bit less pricey. Now here's where you guys come in; have any of you used said shafts and how did they handle/feel. Any input is welcomed.
Not many box laxers here bud. The only info I have heard about is the Fatboy. I know a lot of people in my league use Harrow shafts. I think the best thing to do would be to ask your coach. I know my coach uses a RBK shaft right now and used a Harrow one before that.
Well its worth a try asking here since laxforums.com has that weird situation going on. And now I feel stupid because I totally forgot about harrow even though I have several teammates who use them. I'm just a bit skeptical on the RBK's though, only because I haven't heard much about it and the fact that they're new to the sport. Are the RBK's composites like the harrows?
I can ask my coach and get back to you tomorrow evening. The RBK's are composite and have a really nice feel to them. Haven't really held Harrows yet. Again, I'll ask my coach and see what he says.
Weight isn't an issue for me, I can swing whatever's out there. Just as long as it doesn't cost a ton and can withstand a good amount of brutality. Do you know how much those TI's usually run for?
