Sherwood woody 30 bucks and your golden

thanks but i would prefer a low end composite. every wood i've had the blade has splintered and broke within 3 games. i play on wood floors 3 times a week

I'd suggest a shaft/blade combo if you're going through blades quickly.

The TPS Rubber CSR shafts that hockeygiant is selling for 43 bucks are pretty nice, and lighter than I expected. They're tapered, too. Not long ago, the Monkey had some nice pro stock mission blades for about 15 bucks. It'd be a bit over 50 bucks, but may last you a while. Great combo for the money, IMO.

Agree 100%. A pricepoint composite isnt going to solve anything, most of them are junk. Especially at the $50 range. I responded to your message syko but before i read that you had tried wood blades. Abs blades work perfectly (ccm low end vectors). They look composite but are actually a sort of plastic polymer, just ask your lhs if they have any abs blades and mention there the type you would use for outdoor, anytime i play indoors i wont use anything else, plus if you want to take your stick outdoors to the asphalt or even rocks and gravel, there fine. I use mine in gravel all the time and its great, montreal brand blade.

Mission V-Hex at Philricks - pay the added 15 bucks (65 on sale)...

http://hockey.philbricks.net/browse.cfm/cl...ick/4,9964.html

Or better yet, spend the added 20 and get an TPS XN-10 (70 on sale)...

p://www.hockeyworld.com/prodHome.ihtml?catID=227&pid=3156&shop=0

It will be the best 20 bucks you'll ever spend.

That like the price of 2 pick up games right?

[syko_hockey 0]

thanks rocketking but i just broke a $150 stick i know its soooo cheap but i dont want to spend more than $55-$60 tops

[Rocketking 0]

No problem.

There are a ton of sales out there right now, so you picked a good time to need to find a new stick.

[syko_hockey 0]

i know i couldnt have asked it to break at a better time :D

[Giroux28 0]

if you are left handed hockey monkey has a jr vapor xx max stick'um for $30

http://www.hockeymonkey.com/bauer-hockey-s...stickum-jr.html

also they have a ccm vector 120 for $40 only right handed left

http://www.hockeymonkey.com/vector120jrops.html

and a TPS Response R2 for $40 available in both hands

http://www.hockeymonkey.com/tps-hockey-sti...onse-r2-jr.html

and if you jus need a couple blades hockey giant has some junior blades for 2 bucks cant beat it

[Leafsrule16 5]

Buy a shaft and buy an abs blade. Not only is it a hell of an indoor stick, if you need to use it for outdoor its very do-able. Any of my old broken sticks with enough shaft left get flipped and have an abs blade inserted. They work great and the blades seem to last awhile, there not really ice worthy at my level but since your still in a junior you could probably do it no problem.

is the warrior royale a good stick? also how long is it because i noticed my warrior syko was about a good 2 inches shorter than my rbk 7k although they are both junior sticks.

[Leafsrule16 5]

Go for a closeout, its going to be 100x better then any price point stick. I had a shogun which was garbage, pure trash. It wasnt even fit to be my street hockey stick.

[syko_hockey 0]

whats a good closeout stick under or at $50

[Blueandgold26 1]

Ccm vo8 at monkey for 59

RBK 4k for $45, only bad thing is shipping time. when does your roller seaason end?

[Leafsrule16 5]

http://www.hockeymonkey.com/easton-sfultralitegripjr06.html

I woudlnt go wtih the 4k, its just another low end stick with a nice paintjob. You can get way better for the money if you look around

http://www.hockeymonkey.com/warrior-hockey...lomite2-jr.html another one for 60 , a bit more but its a 08 model

my season ends in august or early september. i hate putting shafts and blades togther

[Ahriman 1]

it requires glue and a heat gun, or a hockey shop, it's not an erector set.

[Giroux28 0]

and if ya dont wanna go to a lhs and you dont have a heat gun you can always use your good ol stove...sometimes the shaft blade combos are better then ops

Or if you have a girlfriend you can steal her hair dryer, its what I do.

I just switched from ops to a two piece and I really don't notice that much of a difference. I'm using a Pro Stock dolomite and Easton Elite blade.
