STX Exult 500

The 10 Degree technology creates a natural forward cant in the head, which drives the ball toward the sweet spot. This design helps you achieve a quicker release on passes and shots while keeping the ball secure in the pocket while you run.

No, because this head uses 10 Degree technology, it is specifically designed to be paired with a 10 Degree shaft. Using a standard straight shaft will not allow the head to sit at the correct angle, which can negatively impact your ball control and release.

Yes, the elastomer overmold is integrated into the head to dampen the vibration of the ball against the plastic. It significantly reduces the 'rattle' sound and feel, providing a smoother, more consistent experience when cradling.

The Exult 500 is engineered for intermediate to advanced players who have developed consistent stick skills. Beginners might find the specialized features, like the Runway Pocket and 10 Degree offset, more effective once they have mastered basic cradling and throwing mechanics.

String Lock technology is designed to keep your pocket tension consistent over time. It prevents the mesh from stretching or 'bagging out' during intense play, meaning you won't have to constantly adjust your strings to maintain a legal and effective pocket.

The scoop is designed with a specific flex profile that allows it to contour to the ground when you go for a loose ball. This makes it easier to get under the ball quickly, helping you secure possession without needing to perfectly angle your stick.
