STX Exult 500 Stick

The 10-degree tilt naturally pushes the ball higher into the pocket, which helps with ball retention while running and allows for a quicker release when passing or shooting.

The Exult 500 is specifically engineered for advanced midfielders. Beginners may find the specialized head shape and aggressive offset challenging to control compared to a more forgiving, entry-level stick.

The oval shape provides a more ergonomic grip than a standard round handle, helping you feel exactly where your stick face is positioned without needing to look down. This is particularly helpful for maintaining control during quick transitions.

Like any grip finish, the rubberized coating will experience natural wear with heavy use. However, it is designed to maintain its tackiness throughout a season, though you may eventually want to apply athletic tape if you prefer a different texture.

Yes, the wider scoop design is optimized for draw control, making it a strong choice for midfielders who take the draw and need to quickly secure the ball or direct it to teammates.

While it is designed primarily for the advanced midfielder, its offensive capabilities make it an excellent choice for attackers who prioritize quick releases and precise feeding.
