The Best Lacrosse Heads

There are tons of great lacrosse heads out there!  These are my favorites for each position.  

Attack

Midfield

Defense

Face Off

Goalie

Attack | Midfield | Defense | Face Off | Goalie | Budget

Attack  – String King Mark 2A 

Wide face shape makes for easy catching and finishing inside.

Low offset creates the perfect frame for a low pocket. 

Easy vertical cradling with a quick release for passing and shooting.

Midfield – East Coast Dyes Mirage 2.0

Narrow face shape and midpoint off-set allow easy mid pocket installation.

Durable construction.

My favorite ground ball head.

Goalie – STX Eclipse 3

The Eclipse line of goalie heads has been a favorite for almost 25 years.

Very durable and won’t break easily or bend out of shape when it gets hot.

Make sure to get it strung by a professional.
