I probably play field hockey 50 out of the 52 weeks of the year and the main part of field hockey is the type of stick you have. Today I am doing my review on Osaka field hockey sticks. I personally love the osaka stick ever since I saw one I always wanted to try them out, go to demos with them, and just look at them. Osaka is a very hard intermediate skill level stick, if you're a beginner then that stick is not for you and you should switch to a crappy beginner stick like STX. I used to be a Byte owner and they are from Pakistan. I really loved Byte but I realized it was a very heavy stick, and this previous summer my coach recommended an Osaka and then ordered it. Osaka comes from japan and suorosinly doesn't take that long, it took about 2 weeks to get here and what I really like about the stick is that it comes with a really cool star grip. The Osaka stick I got has 55% carbon in it which makes it very light, and so it makes it easier when you hit the ball. Although the stick is very expensive, it's very worth the buy because it could last you a very long time. This stick is not able to break whatsoever it's very stable and has 40% firbre glass in it. Grips on field hockey sticks tend to wear out very quickly, therefore our hands are always on the grip. I have had my stick for a little over 5 months and my grip has not even had a tear or ripped off or anything else! This is why the Osaka Field Hockey stick is the way to go and I will always support it!
