Gait Draw Middie

While it was designed with input from elite athletes, the stick is accessible for any player looking to improve their draw mechanics. Its specialized sidewall technology provides a level of control that can actually help developing players learn proper face-off techniques more effectively.

Yes, the Gait Draw Middie comes factory strung with a mesh pocket. It is ready for game use immediately upon arrival, though some players may prefer to break in the mesh slightly before their first match.

The expanded double sidewall is engineered to provide extra stiffness and stability during the draw. This design helps the head maintain its shape under pressure, giving you more consistent control and a more reliable response when fighting for the ball.

This stick is specifically engineered for the draw, which is a midfield-centric skill. While you can technically use it elsewhere, the pocket and sidewall geometry are optimized for face-off mechanics rather than the shooting or defensive needs of attack or defense positions.

Like most factory-strung sticks, the pocket is set to standard specifications. While you can make minor adjustments to the shooting strings or sidewall tension, the mesh configuration is specifically tuned for draw performance, so significant changes might alter how the stick handles.
