Which stick is best for me? (part 1 of 3)

Okay, this is a burning question to most of you I believe when you are choosing a stick. However, do take note of this...

Do not choose left or right (blade) depending on whether you are left-handed or right-handed

Yup, that's right. It doesn't mean that if you are a right handed person, you HAVE to choose a right curved blade.

Making the wrong choice will disadvantage your play enormously. So please, before you make any purchase, do speak to us first.

Being right-handed, shooting on the left will generally give you better stick handling. 
There is a good reason why blades are produced for both left and right shooters. However, players who are right-handed, more generally shoot on the left. The reason is that the right hand is on the top, and thus allows you better control over the stick. Conversely, being left-handed, shooting on the right allows better stick control. 

Hope this give you a better idea! :)
