Today we review the STX Stallion 700 lacrosse head
The Stallion 700 is the 3rd iteration on the Stallion line up and it’s by far the most advanced head in the line up
This 2017 offering from STX is NCAA and HS legal
Starting with the face shape it’s very balanced, just like a midfielder head should be. It’s easy to catch with and holds on to ball very well.
SCOOP – The stallion 700 features there new speed scoop. As you can see the top lip is rounded off similar to the Under Armour heads. Even at awkward angles ground balls are basically effortless Also lower back side of the scoop is carved out which protects your topstring from abrasion.
Just like the previous models the head has the classic dual sidewall braces which help keep the head stiff.
The sidewall rail features C- Channel which mimics an I Beam, just like on a steel I Beam this technology reduces weight while maintaining stiffness and strength
The Stallion 700 Features a newly designed throat. It’s now stronger and ergonomically shaped. The head also retains the dual screw holes from the 550 which when both used with help prevent head wobble.
For stringing there are 6 good sized top string holes that will be big enough for the leathers, the center 2 are spaced pretty far apart so a perfectly centered 9 diamond topstring can be tricky to pull off.
There are 14 sidewall holes that go all they down the head, they are also pretty big so you can put multiple strings through each hole. Also there are 4 well sized and spaced bottom string holes that will be big enough for leathers.
I have two Stallion 700’s, the White one is string with Stringers Shack G3 Ultralight Mesh and the Black one is strung with semi hard STX Memory mesh, both have mid pockets.
The Stallion 700 comes in 4.9 Oz which is just lighter than the Stallion U 550 at 5.1 Oz
Overall the head is pretty stiff, I think it is stiff enough for close D, but the Hammer 500 would still be a better choice. The head has held its stiffness during the past months both in cold and warmer weather. The lateral stiffness is pretty good and I don’t think this head will be prone to hourglassing. From top to bottom it’s extremely stiff just like the Hammer 500 which is good for poke checks
The Stallion 700 is to wide and to stiff for faceoffs so I’d go with another head if plan to take faceoffs
The head is catered to mostly 2 Way middies but this head is plenty capable of being used on a long pole. The Stallion 700 is also a good choice for Attackmen that prefer higher pockets or that like to shoot from the outside.
When it comes to the Stallion 700 I really only have good things to say, Overall the Stallion 700 is one of the best heads on the Market, it comes at $90 which is $10 dollars cheaper than the predecessor. This a truly a high end offering, Its stiff, durable, light, and easy to string.
With that said I would absolutely recommend the Stallion 700 Lacrosse head
