Mark 2F

# 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.
