It has been a few years, but I used to get all my shit from lax.com Prices and selection were always the best, even compared to a great atlantic membership.

I used a Gait Torque with an old STX c405 that outlasted everyone's new warrior Ti's. It worked well for me, but I have no idea what is the good shit these days though. I always focused more on the mechanic then the tool set.

Really there are no BAD heads/ shafts. If you are beginning, you may want something a LITTLE wider, but still pinched, as you are playing offence. You just don't want anything too beefy, and if you will be doing face-offs, find a wide, VERY flexible head. Hope this helps

if you live near a sling it lacrosse, they have everything you need and they will tell you what to get. other wise if you are on a tight budget, get a worrior shaft because they are releativly cheap but not too bad. the head is basically prefrence and budget so there are good ones for most price ranges

whatever you do don't get it pre strung. bring it to a local shop, or have a friend do it. or learn to do it yourself, it isn't that hard, and you can string it exactly how you want it
