# StringKing Mark 2F Lacrosse Heads

The StringKing Mark 2F Lacrosse Head is a weapon for face-off specialists, meticulously crafted for domination at the X. Its selling points are a hybrid plastic construction, an angled scoop, and a shortened throat, which grants leverage for quicker reactions. Moreover, the high flare and straighter sidewall enhances ball control, which is crucial for winning the battle and securing possession.

The Mark 2F marks a pivotal moment in StringKing's history. Founded by two former college lacrosse players in Medfield, Mass., they initially focused on high-performance mesh, becoming synonymous with innovative stringing solutions. However, the release of the Mark 2F marked an ambitious foray into the competitive head market, explicitly targeting the face-off position. Its immediate success, embraced by elite face-off athletes, solidified StringKing's reputation as a significant player across the entire lacrosse equipment landscape.


### **Perfect head for:** face-offs 


### Key Features Include



* Hybrid plastic for the perfect balance of flex and stiffness 
* Shortened Throat for more leverage
* Higher flare and straighter sidewall for more control 
* Angled scoop for attacking a loose ball from any angle 
* Locking bolt installation
* Self-tapping screw installation


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [ECD Weapon X](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/east-coast-dyes/weapon-x/l10504) and the [Nike CEO 2](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/nike/ceo-2-2/l11445) 


 Designed specifically for face-offs, the StringKing Mark 2F prioritizes control and ground ball dominance over the more versatile options like the Weapon X and Nike CEO 2. While the Weapon X and CEO 2 cater to various offensive midfield positions, the Mark 2F's stiffer construction and angled scoop excel at securing ground balls and winning face-offs. The Mark 2F's shorter throat also allows for increased leverage and better control during face-off battles. However, this specialization comes at the cost of versatility, as the Mark 2F's stiff pocket and design may not be ideal for other playing styles that require a wider range of motion and pocket flexibility.

### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* Love this head. Got back into coaching and its bend (and return to shape) is way better than the heads I had back when I was playing in the early 2010s. Makes it easy when I’m working with guys on plungers and reverse clamps.
* Great faceoff head. Good flex and maintains its shape well. Scoop hoovers up ground balls.
* This head has an awesome flex point that lets me control my exits.

CONS



* The first time I played with it, the head snapped the first faceoff. The second head warped quickly and cracked again in 2 spots.
* Much more suitable for offensive players, not a good head for defensive use. 


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

This is the face-off specialist of the Mark 2 family. This head is designed for players wanting the best control and durability. The Mark 2F has a shorter throat to make clamping faster and create a quicker reaction time. StringKing’s new material blends stiffness and flex. The Mark 2F also comes in a stiff version (15% stiffer). The shape retention is significantly better.

Carving its space as the jack-of-all-trades in the StringKing lineup, the Mark 2V Lacrosse Head caters to the multi-dimensional player who craves a balanced approach to the game. Its selling points include an aggressively angled scoop, a meticulously designed pocket, and a lightweight, stiff construction. This versatility makes it perfect for transitioning between offense, defense, and ground ball battles. 

The Mark 2V sits at the heart of StringKing's strategic expansion into the head market. Following their initial success with high-performance mesh, the Mark 2V marked their commitment to offering complete lacrosse solutions. The Mark 2V's immediate traction amongst midfielders solidified StringKing's reputation as a brand catering to various playing styles, not just offensive specialists. 


### **Perfect head for:** a midfielder


### Key Features Include

* Rounded front edges prevent your head from digging into the ground
* An aggressive forward angle helps guide loose balls in your pocket
* Ultra-still construction gives more power, accuracy, and consistency. 
* 29 stringing holes on each sidewall allows for customization and fine-tuning

### Top Competitor Comparisons: [STX Stallion 1K](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/stallion-1k/l316969) and the [Maverik Kinetik 2.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/maverik/kinetik-2-0/l164266) 

While all aiming to equip well-rounded midfielders, the StringKing Mark 2V, Maverik Tactik 3.0, and STX Stallion 1K each cater to slightly different styles. The StringKing Mark 2V boasts exceptional versatility, offering a mid-pocket that balances powerful shots with controlled passing. Its stiff construction enhances ground ball control and allows for strong holds on the ball during powerful throws. The Maverik Tactik 3.0 prioritizes a blend of power and control through its mid-pocket design and diverse stringing options. It features a slightly less aggressive scoop compared to the Mark 2V, potentially impacting ground ball collection in contested situations. The STX Stallion 1K leans towards a more offensive-focused approach with its aggressive mid-high pocket designed to maximize power in shots. While it excels in generating raw power, it might offer less control on finesse plays compared to the Mark 2V and Tactik 3.0.

### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* This head has stood up to extensive play.
* With 29 holes, the stringing possibilities are endless. If you're a stringer, it truly allows you to hone in on what you seek to get out of the head.
* I am a 2-way middie, and this head has held up for a whole season and summer ball. Has not warped at all and is still very stiff.

CONS



* Spend some time ensuring front and back holes line up or you're in for a headache getting a good lock.
* Not a big fan of the of the proprietary string king head screw.


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

The Mark 2V is perfect for the all-around player, making it extremely versatile on the feild. It has a classic face shape, similar to the Mark 1, for increased ball control. It’s super balanced due to the blend of stiffness and weight of the head.

The StringKing Mark 2A stands out for its stiff construction and focus on power, making it a great choice for offensive players who value powerful shots and hard throws.

CONS

Clutch 4X

### Product Description

The Brine Clutch 4X lacrosse head continues to be one of the most diverse heads on the market for any offensive player and is stiffer than previous models. The head shape is the same dynamic offset design that has been patented and loved by offensive players since it was originally released. The new patented Vari-Flex technology utilizes a material in the head that flexes optimally for speed, stiffness, and durability and incorporates strategically placed heat resistant nylon in high stress areas. The Vari-Flex Core technology helps maintain the head’s stiffness in hotter weather conditions and helps avoid warping and damage to the head. The Strategic Core-Tech eliminates excess weight in the head for more accuracy and control while the TruOffset design gives the ability to maximize pocket depth for more shot power. The Brine Clutch 4X lacrosse head is both NCAA and NFHS legal.

### Expert Notes

The Brine Clutch 4X comes from one of the highest regarded brand lines in all of lacrosse, and continues to develop technological improvements to make this one of the top-rated offensive heads. This head was made stiffer with Variflex technology to help make a sturdier, flexible head to adjust to a variety of playing styles. Players love this feature because it helps the head perform better, and more consistently during extreme weather. Offensive players also enjoy this technology because it increases stiffness near the base of the head, which adds more whip and power to their shooting and passing. The head also has great offset and Core-tech features, which decrease weight but still gives the opportunity to string deeper pockets with crisp channels. Attackmen love this aspect because it helps them tear through defenses by increasing ball retention and hold. The head also has a flat and stiff scoop, allowing ground ball gurus to perfect their craft. The Brine Clutch 4X is a universally legal head great for two-way midfielders looking to make an impact at all levels of the game.
