STX Fortress 700 Lacrosse Stick

This stick is designed specifically for intermediate to advanced defensive players. Beginners might find the specialized head geometry and performance-focused features more challenging to manage compared to a standard entry-level stick.

The 10-degree head angle naturally pushes the ball toward the sweet spot of the pocket. This creates a quicker release and better ball retention, which is essential for defensive players who need to transition the ball upfield rapidly.

The integrated strike plates are reinforced sections on the shoulders of the head. They add durability and impact resistance, allowing you to deliver harder defensive checks without worrying about the head warping or breaking.

Not at all. While the reduced sidewall height is designed to create a deeper pocket for better ball control, STX engineered the head to maintain its structural integrity, ensuring it remains stiff and reliable during aggressive play.

Yes, this is a complete setup, meaning it comes with the head and composite shaft already assembled. It is ready for game use as soon as you receive it.

As a defender, you are often fighting for ground balls in traffic. The Speed Scoop design minimizes drag on the turf, allowing you to scoop up loose balls cleanly from almost any angle without needing to perfectly center the ball.
