Cutting your hockey stick?

Hello Folks,

Time to cut your hockey stick.  Is it too long?  Or is it too short?!

The best players in the world use sticks up to their chest.  That's right.  Their chest.  Not their lips, eyebrows, nose or chin.  Of course, players can have their own preferences.  

Today we'll talk about why the greats do it and why you should also consider trying it.  The stick is around chest high because you want the stick blade to be flat and flush on the ice surface.  To do this, simply stand in an upright position with your arms hanging down from the side and grasping your hockey stick.  

Here is an example of Bobby Orr.  

You might say, hey!  That is hockey in the 1970s, but wait let me show you players who have shorter sticks in our generation.

 

One of my favorites.  Alexander Ovechkin.  Hard shot, crazy moves, fast skater.  Did I miss anything?  

Shorter stick gives you better athletic stance to be ready for any puck situation!  Try it out and let us know what you think of it!

Have a try and let me know what you think!

Examples:

 

You the stick to be flush in the middle.
