# Maverik Optik 3 Head

The Maverik Optik 3.0 Lacrosse Head builds upon the legacy of its predecessors as a high-performance head designed for offensive players. It features an increased offset for a deeper pocket, a shortened throat for an improved top-hand feel, and a dual-strut sidewall for stiffness and reduced weight. The 20 sidewall holes offer stringing customization for personalized pocket preference.

This head fits within Maverik's ongoing commitment to innovation and player-centric design. The Optik line has a strong track record, favored by elite attackmen like Team USA's Jordan Wolf. The 3.0 iteration refines this legacy, focusing on the specific needs of dodging, feeding, and finishing offensive players. 


 **Perfect head for:** attackmen


### Key Features Include



* XRAIL Technology for distributing stress to the opposite rail creating a lightweight and stiff design.
* Tension Lock enables stringers to locate a defined shooting channel for increased accuracy.
* Duratough Material increases stiffness and provides consistency in all weather conditions.
* Optimal release points increase control with added hold and have extreme energy offset when shooting.


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [STX Surgeon 900](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/surgeon-900/l65241) and the [StringKing Mark 2A](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/string-king/mark-2a/l758)

Carving its niche in the offensive realm, the Maverik Optik 3.0 squares off against the STX Surgeon 900 and StringKing Mark 2A, each catering to distinct offensive styles. The Optik prioritizes pure power, boasting a deep pocket and a wide face shape ideal for powerful shots, tight holds for aggressive dodges, and maintaining possession in the attacking zone. The STX Surgeon 900 takes a more traditional approach with a medium-depth pocket and a balanced face shape, offering versatility for strong throws, accurate passing, and decent ground ball pick-up. However, the Surgeon also allows for greater customization to match individual preferences. The StringKing Mark 2A, designed specifically for left-handed players, features a similar deep pocket but with a stiffer construction, prioritizing power and hold for forceful shots and dominant offensive plays.


### Progression:

The Maverik Optik lacrosse head series features three models: Optik, Optik 2.0, and Optik 3.0. Here's a breakdown of their progression:


**[Maverik Optik](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/maverik/optik/l751) (Original)**

### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* The best head on the market for advanced attack men. Accurate feeding and control.
* Perfect head for dodging inside and making precision passes.
* Good attack head. Lightweight. Lots of stringing options.

CONS



* The pocket was a little shallower than I was expecting.
* Feels like a slight weight increase compared to the previous Optik model.
* Takes a while to break this head in. Stiff. 


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 


Building off the previous 2 generations, this head is the most advanced model of Maverik’s offensive heads. It has a shorter throat on the head, which reduces the distance between the player's top hand and the ball so you have more control. This head was designed with the inside finisher in mind, with an increased feel and face shape for passing and shooting. With 20 sidewall holes, this head allows you to string the head any way you like.
