Reducing the Lie of a composite

Recommended Posts

Is this possible without damaging the integrity of the stick? In my research I haven't been able to find a composite toe curve with a 5 lie. The Bauer P10 through the ID program is the best I have found.

Harrow #4 pattern too -- but I'm very hesitant to spend $160 bucks + shipping on anything from Harrow.

I'm not familiar with Bauer blades but you'd have to imagine it would become more fragile. You're lucky enough to find a retail toe-curve as is.

So put their blades in a tapered shaft, you get an acceptable level of performance and the blade/lie that you like. The only 5 lie retail curves are modano clones.

I have a custom Statsny RM19 blade in RH if you're interested?

The Harrow #4 isn't exactly a toe curve. I have one, and it's more like a regular mid curve. The only way it's a toe curve is if you rotate the shaft a bit, but you can say that with any mid curve.

Here's a pic.

I've yet to actually see a true toe curve at retail. I think your just going to have to search through a tonne of pro stock sticks for one or go custom.

Everyone game up on them, Bauer had at least two or three wood blades with toe curves but most of them got dropped when they started doing composite blades and the P10 hung on for a couple more years before going by the wayside.

What P# did the Tverdovsky become? A few years ago I saw a bunch of 3030s with the pattern and they looked sort of like the Prospal. Kind of like the old Christian Jagr/Pittsburgh.

That curve looks really nice, like a modano with a slight toe-hook!

And this is a true 5 lie? Could you post a profile-view pic of the blade?
