The Hawk Sequel builds off the great success of the original Hawk released in 2014, with added functionality. For those who aren’t familiar with the lacrosse landscape, a head is everything. Durability, ball control and feel, weight, rigidity, and options for stringing are all important factors that need to be considered when choosing a head – especially when integrating a new head into your setup.

First and foremost – The Sequel is just downright beautiful. Inspired by Italian supercars, The Sequel features clean lines and a sleek face that put it at the top of the pack aesthetically.

Epoch’s proprietary blend of materials make this head tougher than nails while remaining light and having the added flex players enjoy. Regarding options for stringing: the head was designed with creative stringers in mind, integrating added string holes into its bottom rail for pockets of all playing styles, though The Sequel’s design works best for a mid to high pocket. The scoop was designed to turn even the laziest attackman (we all know one) into a ground ball machine – taking ergonomics into account and maximizing its contact with the ground.

The Hawk Sequel integrates technology that only a company filled with lacrosse players would know to pay attention to – one of the many reasons Epoch continues to produce consumed products in the space.
