dabeechman 0 Report post Posted April 13, 2011 Their shipping was always the thing that killed their deals. So buying multiple shafts and blades were a good way to make it worth your money as they rarely added much (if any) to your final bill. They were good about combining shipping.One of Harrows best qualities are their durability, so you may keep those blades for awhile. Haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think I am going to give a couple 2 pieces from them a try. If anyone has a current coupon code it would be much appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lappy 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2011 I played around 30 games with my Harrow shaft at D before it snaped.. But it got stuck between me, the boards and a 200 pounder skating/falling into it, so it didnt have much chance of survival!Luckily I had an extra shaft (110) at home but i find it too stiff for me. It did soften up after 5 games and my last couple games it felt much better and my slapper gained much needed momentum... Maybe it was me getting used to the stifness of the shaft or it losing some.I'd still go for a 100 flex if I could get a new order in. I'm a 6'2'' 180 lbs Defense btwI'm using a new blade aswell, which probably didn't help the feel at first with a 110 shaft. But my blade was still poppy into 30+ games.FYI I prefer my 2 piece setup to my easton OPS Synergy ST 100 Zetterberg. I find the easton to have much less puck feel than the harrow. And both are tanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coryroth24 15 Report post Posted April 19, 2011 Alright, needs to get their shit together with labeling the 300 blades. Website says Pattern #8 matches the Bauer Lindros/Kane pattern. Look in the catalog, #8 matches the Bauer Clark/Peca patterns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jarick 5 Report post Posted April 20, 2011 All my Harrow stuff has held up extremely well. Never broke a shaft or cracked/softened a blade. Only problem was a 60 flex shaft that whipped out after several months. I personally went away from their shafts because I couldn't get a flex between intermediate and senior whip but would use their blades in the future if I can find something that works with them.A teammate has been using the same two 300 2-piece sticks for two seasons and summer league and I believe he's still on his first blades. He plays center and went through several Dolomite and Mission pro stock blades as well as a few Dolomite shafts the previous couple years. He won't use anything else now.

skyscrape 5 Report post Posted April 20, 2011 I am using a pattern 11 300 blade in a new Easton Eq50 shaft. This shaft is amazing! Especially the weight system. Matching the feel of this blade with three weights makes for one of the most balances sticks I have ever held! The blades are great. To whomever said they need to get their act together, just pick up the phone and call them. That is what I did and two days later my blades arrived! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stoop 1 Report post Posted April 21, 2011 Alright, needs to get their shit together with labeling the 300 blades. Website says Pattern #8 matches the Bauer Lindros/Kane pattern. Look in the catalog, #8 matches the Bauer Clark/Peca patterns. I visited their retail store recently, and was looking at that pattern. The clerk compared it to a Nash, but reading around here it seems like the definition of a Nash has been pretty fluid. Anyway, the #8 was marked a mid, and was slightly open, with a moderate curve. I was looking at the #8 and their Iginla curve, and the main difference to my untrained eye was that the #8 was more open (their Iginla being definitively closed). However I'm guessing, based on your question, that the exact details are important. You could try calling the store. The guy was nice and the store is in a very quiet shopping center. He could at least tell you the specs that are printed right on the blade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kovalchuk71 212 Report post Posted April 22, 2011 Used another 20% off code that worked.Great service from Harrow on my order, Ordered 3 Pattern#10 300 Series Blades (Ovechkin Pro Curve)Ordered 1 Pattern#5 300 Series BladesPlaced the order on Sunday, arrived in Canada by Wednesday with a reasonable shipping costCan't wait to give them a try tonight!Does anyone have a picture of the Ovi patterned blade (#10)? Also what is the approximate lie?What is the lie on the Pattern 11? 5.5? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyscrape 5 Report post Posted April 22, 2011 Does anyone have a picture of the Ovi patterned blade (#10)? Also what is the approximate lie?What is the lie on the Pattern 11? 5.5?I have both! The ovi really doesnt have a lie. The rocker is intense! I love it but it would be dangerous for me to really use in a game position. The 11 plays really flat to me, but it is due to heel shape and rocker.I will work on getting on a photo site and putting up a few pictures. A picture does nothing for the pattern 10. You have to see it in hand. I have the 11 in a 11k shaft it it feels good I will use it for a while. The ten is in an EQ-50 shaft and it is nice as well. For anyone who has used Harrow shafts in 100-110 flex in both Easton Shafts and EG50 shafts, how would they compare to the Harrow shafts? I want to order one soon but want to know how they would perform? Weaker softer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dudegolong 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2011 I like Easton's 85 flex and I don't cut it down at all (retail length) so it's probably in the low 80's. With these harrow shafts it sounds like I'd have to cut it down. Would you guys recommend that I get the 75 flex since I'm gonna have to cut it down 2 inches Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With these harrow shafts it sounds like I'd have to cut it down. Would you guys recommend that I get the 75 flex since I'm gonna have to cut it down 2 inchesMy experience is limited, but I have a couple 85 flex Easton shafts converted from broken OPS (not my sticks originally), and one each of the 75 and 85 flex Harrow shafts. I find both of the 85 Eastons to be stiffer than the Harrow 85. Slight variation in length due to the broken blade removal may explain some of that, but I'd still think that if you're used to 85 Easton, you'd probably find the Harrow 75 pretty flaccid by comparison.

Jarick 5 Report post Posted August 8, 2011 Honestly to me the 75 flex felt closer to an 80 with the 85 flex being a true 85. They didn't feel much different. If you use an 85 flex, go with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dudegolong 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2011 Ok thanks guys, but my main concern is how much am I going to have to cut this Blade/Shaft Combo down? Is it about the same length as a retail One piece when you first combine the blade and shaft? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
