# Warrior Evo QX-O Head
The Warrior Evo QX-O lacrosse head marked a significant evolution in Warrior's offensive lineup. Designed for the elusive ball carrier, the QX-O boasts an unmatched lightness at 20 grams lighter than its predecessor, a redesigned bottom rail and mid-low pocket, and a Therma Lock resin for ensuring the head maintains its shape and stiffness even in high temps.

The QX-O integrates into Warrior's history of offensive innovation. Following the success of the iconic Warrior Krypto Pro shaft, the QX-O prioritizes control and power, aligning with Warrior's dedication to crafting high-performance tools for offensive dominance. The QX-O balances weight (it’s the lightest offensive lacrosse head from Warrior) and stiffness, appealing to players seeking a versatile head for all aspects of the offensive game.


**Perfect head for:** attackmen


### Key Features Include



* Therma-Loc resin boosts performance in high-heat
* Improved scoop for effortless ground ball pickups.
* Redesigned bottom rail and mid-low pocket profile to facilitate ball control
* Sym-Rail eliminates excess weight and provides improved stiffness.
* Optional LOC-THROAT feature for better head-to-handle attachment or leave out for lightweight performance.


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [Maverik Optik 3.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/maverik/optik-3-0/l165698) and the [STX Surgeon 900](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/maverik/optik-3-0/l165698)

The Warrior Evo QX-O carves a niche in the offensive space, battling it out with the Maverik Optik 3.0 and STX Surgeon 900 for the title of top offensive weapon. All three prioritize a balance of power and control, but cater to slightly different playing styles. The Evo QX-O boasts a mid-pocket depth and a pinched face shape, offering a sweet spot for powerful shots and maintaining a good feel for dodges and passing. The Maverik Optik 3.0 features a slightly deeper pocket and a wider face, leaning towards maximizing power in shots and holds for aggressive offensive plays. Conversely, the STX Surgeon 900 takes a more traditional approach with a medium-depth pocket and a balanced face shape, excelling in versatility for strong throws, accurate passing, and decent ground ball pick-up. 


### Progression:

The Warrior Evo lacrosse head is a popular choice for players of all levels, and it has seen several iterations over the years. Here's the progression:

Evo (1999-2000): The original Evo was designed to be lightweight and featured a refined offset patent for improved release points.

[Evo 2](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evolution-2-0/strung/l320960): Built upon the original's success, the Evo 2 was about trying to increase ball control in the pocket and accuracy out of the pocket. It has a redesigned throat and the amount of offset in the head increased. 

[Evo 3](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evolution-3x/l9138): Saw significant changes including custom color heads, increased sidewall string holes from ten to 13, and a shortened throat. 

[Evo 4](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-4/l7007): Introduced the SYM-RAILTM technology, which aimed to reduce weight strategically while maintaining overall stiffness.

[Evo 5](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-5/l7064): Further refinements, including the Tilt Tech string hole setup for a lower pocket and improved control. It also boasts a Throat Lock for a secure fit on the shaft and a stiffer design overall.

[Evo QX-O](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-qx-o/l164309): Designed for offensive players, it’s approximately 20 grams lighter than the Evo 5. Has an Improved scoop for better ground ball control and a new Therma-Loc resin for increased stiffness and face shape retention in hot weather. 


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* I quickly grew to love the QX-O. It’s durable and capable of taking the biggest of stick checks.
* This is my favorite of the Warrior’s—very lightweight, durable, and great face shape.
* The optional throat plug is the best feature.

CONS



* It felt a little stiff and less forgiving than other Warrior heads I've used.
* The QX-O offers fewer sidewall stringing holes compared to other heads. 
* I prefer a more responsive head. This one is stiff. 


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

 
The Warriors started making up some crazy names for their heads. This model is made for an offensive player who’s looking for more ball control with a quick release on passing and shooting. The big selling point is that it's 20 grams lighter than the previous model and has an upgraded rail system. The material makes it a stiffer head, and it helps the head retain its shape in high-heat environments. It has an updated scoop to make ground balls that much easier.

# Warrior Evo 5 Lacrosse Heads
The Warrior Evo 5 Lacrosse Head is a force to be reckoned with for offensive midfielders and attackmen seeking power, control, and pinpoint accuracy. Its selling points are undeniable: the Tilt-Tech stringing holes facilitate a low-mid pocket placement, while the Sym-Rail technology shaves weight without sacrificing stiffness.

The Evo 5 seamlessly integrates into Warrior's rich lacrosse history, marked by consistent advancements in equipment and technology. Established in Warren, Michigan, Warrior quickly made a name for itself with its innovative gloves and pads. However, the Evo series specifically targeted the offensive end of the field. The Evo 5 is a testament to Warrior's dedication to refining and perfecting offensive offerings. 


### Perfect head for: offensive midfielders and attackmen


### Key Features Include



* Tilt-Tech string hole design
* TruOffset® Technology deepens the pocket for enhanced ball control and shot power
* Bottom Rail Designed for mid to low-pocket placement
* Sym-Rail gets rid of excess weight while providing greater stiffness in the design


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [ECD Rebel Offense](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/east-coast-dyes/rebel/l8819) and the [STX Hyper Power](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/hyper-power/l168596)

When compared to its competitors, the Warrior Evo 5 sits in a sweet spot for offensive players seeking a balance between hold and power. It boasts a stiffer pocket than the ECD Rebel Offense, making it ideal for low-pocket setups and powerful shots, while still offering enough flexibility for a good feel on the ball. The STX Hyper Power leans even further towards stiffness and power, but at the expense of some of the Evo 5's versatility in terms of pocket formation and overall feel. Ultimately, the choice between these three comes down to individual preference and playing style, with the Evo 5 offering a compelling blend of power, hold, and feel for offensive players.


### Progression: 

The Warrior Evo lacrosse head is a popular choice for players of all levels, and it has seen several iterations over the years. Here's the progression:



* **[Evo](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-74/l10506) (1999-2000):** The original Evo was designed to be lightweight and featured a refined offset patent for improved release points.

It also boasts a Throat Lock for a secure fit on the shaft and a stiffer design overall.


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* The Evo 5 is probably my favorite head ever. It has a little flex but is great for middies and attacks.
* It works best with a mid-high pocket.
*  The lock mechanism is great, with zero wobble. 

CONS



* Not many string holes, but if strung well it doesn't matter.
* The throat lock was tough. I needed sandpaper to make it work.
* The ball stop has fallen off all three Warrior EVO 5 heads I have.


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

The Warrior Evo 5 was the head of choice by players such as UVA attackman Xander Dickson. It's made to be light and accurate with a ton of ball control. It's got a lot of sidewall holes that would allow for multiple sidewall patterns, so you have a ton of different stringing options. Some players like to do a high pocket with a little bit more whip, and some like a mid to low pocket for less whip and more control. This head is for players who'd like to have the ball lower in the pocket, but it's also versatile in what you can do with it.

### Expert Notes 

The Warrior Evo lacrosse head was made for offensive midfielders and attackmen. This elite level head is designed to have a lower pocket, giving players the power to have more control of the ball and allowing for more whip in the head of your stick. The neck of the head has two screw holes to anchor the Evo down to reduce the risk of breaking or rattling. The rail system of the head is stiffer and stronger, while reducing the weight to give you a faster shot. It also gives you the option to have a bunch of string holes to create your perfect pocket.

Torque

### Product Description 

The Gait Torque is a throwback offensive head designed for the sport’s top midfielders. It’s legal at the NFHS and youth levels too, so it’s also a great choice for beginner players looking for a strong and durable offensive head. The head is the first from Gait to feature Gait Canted Technology, specifically designed to maximize offset by gradually lowering the bottom rail. The bottom rail is also flattened to optimize pocket customization near the throat and top of the head. The head also features a flat, stiff scoop to provide great stiffness and durability on ground balls. The head also features inside rib support to create unmatched strength and stiffness by adding more plastic to the piece in between the upper and lower sidewall. 

### Expert Notes

One of Gait’s best known heads to date is the Torque. It's also one of the most advanced heads of its time, featuring "Gait Canted Technology." This head has one of the most curved scoops in the game. Ground balls with the Torque are a breeze, thanks to the deep angle of the scoop. The Torque also features a super narrow face shape, making it an all around great fit for elite middies. With its innovative sidewall and face shape design, stringing this head to your preference is not difficult. You can create a super solid mid pocket with a beautiful channel that will perform amazingly!

Burn X

### Product Description 

The Warrior Burn X lacrosse head is designed for the offensive-minded player looking for a quick release, maximum shot power and faster ground ball pick-ups. This sleek head is re-engineered with a slim profile and narrower scoop at the throat for more ball control and an enhanced feel. The Sym-Rail Twist technology reduces weight in the sidewalls without sacrificing overall stiffness or strength. The Warrior Burn X also features max stringing holes for a completely customizable pocket to match any playing style and pocket preference. The Warrior Burn X is an extremely lightweight and durable lacrosse head perfect for offensive-minded players.


### Expert Notes

The Warrior Burn X is a head designed with a narrower throat and a wide scoop, making it a weapon of choice for long-stick midfielders and defensive middies alike. Basically, the head is a cross-breed of an Evo 4 and a Clutch 3, combining both offensive and defensive elements to make it great for ground balls, shooting, and landing hard checks. Players love the wide, rounded scoop because it helps them pluck ground balls out of a scrum, and then quickly funnels the ball to the center of the pocket. Once in the channel, the tighter pinch helps players retain possession of the ball; upon release, the Burn X provides pinpoint accuracy on passes. The head is also engineered from some of the lightest, sturdiest material you’ll find. The head only weighs 4.7 ounces, which helps players increase their shot speed. Despite its lightweight nature, the Burn X is still highly resistant to cracks, breaks, and bends. Overall, the Warrior Burn X is a universally legal head perfect for elite LSMs and defensive midfielders who also want to make their presence felt at the offensive end of the field.

Evo 2.0

### Product Description

The Warrior Evolution 2.0 lacrosse head is one of the longest running models in the Warrior line and has stood the test of time. Recommended for offensive attack and midfielders, this head features a pinched design at the throat that is a must-have for those who end up with one-hand carries up the field. The open sidewall design makes this head extremely lightweight and the patented TruOffset technology creates a lowered pocket for increased ball control and extra power on shots. The Warrior Evolution 2.0 utilizes EZ Scoop technology, which is a rounded scoop that makes it easier to pick up ground balls while on the run. The Warrior Evo 2.0 includes everything you love about the original design, but just revamped and re-styled.

### Expert Notes

The Warrior Evo 2.0 comes from one of the most trusted brands with a reputation of designing the next great product. The tightly pinched throat is perfect for players who often cradle one-handed and desire a lot of whip. Players love that the head itself has a softer feel than other new heads, and this helps create more hold and ball control while shooting and distributing the ball. This head is great for beginners, as it has a wide face and a Warrior EZ Scoop, which helps youth players who are still developing their technique pick up ground balls more easily. The head also has an open sidewall design that helps maintain a lightweight, sturdy core. Overall, the Warrior Evo 2.0 is a great head to help newer players develop their skills, and the head is legal at the NFHS and Youth levels of play.
