Supreme 70 - Low Bow

The NKD Dream 70 - Pro Bow is a senior field hockey stick built for outdoor play, aimed at intermediate players moving past their first proper stick. It combines a Pro bow with a more conventional mid bow shape, giving a blend of the easier ball-lifting a pro-style bow offers with the familiar feel of a mid bow through hitting and passing. That combination suits players developing their skills who aren't ready for the sharper, more specialised profiles found on advanced sticks. The blend of bow shapes also tends to be more forgiving on mis-hits, which matters more at this stage of a player's development than outright power. Built specifically for outdoor turf rather than indoor boards, it comes in senior lengths of 36.5 inch and 37.5 inch. It's a sensible step for a club-level player at an intermediate stage, wanting a stick that helps with technique without demanding an advanced player's control to get the best from it.

The Gryphon Cobra DII G26 is a senior field hockey stick built around Gryphon's DII bow, the mid-point of the brand's curve range that stays flat enough for an easy first touch while still offering whip lower down towards the head. It sits as one of the more accessible sticks in the Cobra family, better suited to players developing their stick skills than to those chasing the sharpest, most advanced curves in Gryphon's range. The G26 head keeps the working area close to the ground, useful for trapping and quick release in tight areas of the pitch. It's a universal stick, playable outdoors on turf or brought indoors, and comes in two senior lengths, 36.5 and 37.5 inches.

The Gryphon Solo DII is a senior field hockey stick built around Gryphon's DII bow profile, positioned as an accessible entry into their performance range rather than a top-tier pro model. The DII bow sits lower down the shaft than a traditional straight stick, giving players an easier time lifting the ball for flicks and aerials while still holding up for straightforward hitting and passing. G26 marks the specific build within Gryphon's Solo line, keeping the stick consistent with the rest of the range in feel and balance. It's aimed at senior players who want a bow-shaped stick without stepping up to Gryphon's Tour or Pro pricing. Available in 36.5 inch and 37.5 inch lengths, it's built as a universal stick rather than one restricted to indoor or outdoor courts, so it moves between training on turf and general club play without issue. For a senior player choosing their first bow stick, or a club player replacing a straight-shafted one, the Solo DII is a reasonable place to start.

The NKD Supreme Jr (30%) is built for junior field hockey players, with the 30% in its name marking it out as a lighter composite build than NKD's senior Supreme sticks. It's a universal design, meant to work on both indoor courts and outdoor pitches, so a young player doesn't need separate kit while still working out which surface they prefer. NKD supplies it in 32 inch and 34 inch lengths - two sticks at 32" and three at 34" in this batch - covering players from around primary-school age through to early teens depending on height. Parents choosing between the two sizes should go by the child's height rather than age alone, since junior growth varies a lot between players. At 85 EUR it's a training and match stick for juniors still developing technique, not a stick built around one specific bow profile.
