Finesse 75

The NKD Extreme 50 is an outdoor field hockey stick built for senior players who want to hit hard rather than finesse the ball around midfield. It carries an X-Late Bow profile - the curve sits low on the shaft, closer to the head, which loads power into drag-flicks and hard hits instead of prioritising early touch. That kind of bow suits intermediate players who already have a technical base and are looking to add power, rather than complete beginners still learning basic stick control. It rewards a full, committed swing more than a delicate touch. It comes in 36.5 inch and 37.5 inch lengths, sized for senior outdoor hockey. Choose the length that matches your height and grip rather than automatically taking the longer option - extra reach only helps if you can still control the head through contact.

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 Gryphon Striker DII Indoor brings the DII bow profile into Gryphon's indoor range, aimed at senior players who spend their season on the boards rather than outdoor turf. Indoor field hockey rewards quick stick work and close control more than raw hitting power, and the lower DII bow helps with lifting the ball off tight touches near the boards without sacrificing too much flat-stick passing. G26 places this stick within Gryphon's Striker build, keeping it in line with the rest of that range's balance and feel. It's built specifically for indoor use rather than as a universal stick, so it isn't intended for regular outdoor turf sessions. Two lengths are available, 36.5 inch and 37.5 inch, covering most senior heights, and the extra option makes it easier to match to a taller or shorter frame than a single-size indoor stick would allow. A fair choice for a senior indoor player wanting a bow stick without moving up to Gryphon's Tour or Pro indoor models.

The NKD Supreme 30 is the entry point into NKD's Supreme range, a low bow field hockey stick priced for senior players who are still building their game at an intermediate level. Low bow sticks like this one sit the curve further up the shaft than a mid bow, giving a flatter face for straightforward hitting and passing while still helping with drag flicks. At 115 EUR it's the most affordable stick in the Supreme family, a sensible option for a club player who doesn't need the extra construction of the 50 or 70 models yet. NKD supplies it in 36.5 inch and 37.5 inch pairs, two of each size per batch. It's built for outdoor pitches - grass surfaces - rather than indoor hockey, so it suits players training and competing on a full-size pitch.
