Thanks for the welcome. I tried using the search, but came up with a bunch of stuff not really related.

just below chin on skates

I like it aroud my mouth/nose on skates... which is longer than most people care for, but I'm shorter than most people I play with/against (5'6"-5'7"), and I like the longer reach to keep the puck out of the d-man's reach, so I get get around him easier.

I like mine right at my chin on skates. I used to use a stick that was at my nose and since switching I've found a dramatic increase in my stick handling and snap shot.

I like my stick at my shoulders when I am on skates, an extremely short twig. I am only 5'10" so I have to use a reaalllyyy whippy flex, 77.

yea same with kuazzi, I am around that height, so cutting the senior stick any shorter than up to your nose usually results in ineffective stick with a flex of like 160 which you can't really shoot with properly. a lot of my friends who play also like it extra long too for some reason. I'd still say no more than up to your nose/upper eye is good

to make it easier on preparing a stick, im about 5'9ish and i just use a senior stick uncut. it comes up to about my mouth/nose area on skates.

Yikes, I hope you use a really low lie.

We're getting a ton of repetitive topics again, when I get some time I'll start combining them. In the meantime, here's a search result with a number of topics on stick length.
