Overview
The Sherwood Code Photon 3 Hockey Stick is built for players looking to step into the fast, versatile feel of the Code stick family at an approachable price point. Designed around Sherwood's hybrid kick point, the Photon 3 delivers a balanced blend of quick-release shooting and powerful loading, making it a great option for players who like to do a little bit of everything on the ice.
The blade features Blackline 6 carbon fiber for a lightweight, responsive feel that helps improve puck control while maintaining durability for everyday play. Sherwood also uses concave sidewalls with grip-friendly corners, creating a shaft shape that feels secure and comfortable in the hands for confident stickhandling, passing, and shooting. Intermediate models of the stick feature Sherwood's I-Shaft geometry, a shaft design specifically sized for smaller hands to promote better control and a more natural grip.
Rounding out the build is a lightly textured blade that helps maintain a consistent puck feel in all game situations. Whether you're developing your game or simply looking for a dependable performance stick with modern technologies, the Sherwood Code Photon 3 delivers the balanced release, comfortable handling, and reliable performance that define the Code lineup.

Sizing Chart
| GENERAL STICK FLEX AND SIZING RECOMMENDATION | |
|---|---|
| We recommend choosing the hockey stick flex that puts your specific height and weight at the middlemost point in both categories. A common rule of thumb is to select a flex rating by dividing your body weight in two and subtracting another 10-15 flex points. See the flex chart and articles below for more detailed information on sizing and selecting hockey sticks. |
