The Bauer Supreme 3S Pro SR Composite Goalie Stick is Bauer’s new performance level Supreme stick. Sporting a new lightweight Expandcel paddle core, a Carbon Glass shaft and a thin, and durable Textreme blade, the Bauer 3S Pro goal stick delivers exceptional performance you expect, at a reasonable price point.
Shaft Construction
The Bauer 3S Pro senior goal stick uses a lightweight Carbon Glass shaft construction increasing durability while saving weight.
Paddle Construction
The paddle of the Supreme 3S Pro goal stick is made of a durable silver carbon weave paddle wrapping around their new Expandcel Core. Bauer uses their Ergo + paddle geometry which refers to a slight concave on the front of the paddle reducing the chance of pucks skipping over compared to traditional paddle dimensions. The back of the paddle is slightly rounded, which allows the stick to easily be brought tight to the body when making saves in close.
Blade Construction/Stiffness
The blade of the 3S Pro goalie stick features a Textreme construction similar to that seen on higher end Bauer sticks. Using Textreme allowed Bauer to thin out the blade of the 3S Pro goal stick while giving it a much stiffer feel and more pop when playing the puck.
Graphics
The 3S Pro senior goal stick has a variety of colour options on top of a silver base. These colours include Silver/Black, Silver/Red, Silver/Blue, and Silver/Navy.
Grip
The 3S Pro stick features the same textured grip zone as seen on the Ultrasonic stick, giving good control when holding the stick at the paddle while remaining slick enough for goalies to quickly slide their blockers to the top of the shaft when playing the puck.

Goalie Stick Sizing Information
Unlike other pieces of gear, Goalie Sticks are sized mostly to the goaltender’s preference and playing style rather than their height. The most important measurement, when purchasing a new goal stick, is the paddle height (the wide portion of the stick), which is usually taken from the heel of the stick to the shaft/paddle interface. The reason for the paddle height’s significance is because it sets up the goaltender’s depth in the ready stance and (if properly sized) positions the blocker in an optimal position.
Sizing Your Goalie Stick
To start analyzing the size of your goalie stick, put on your goalie skates to get an accurate height of where you will be in your stance. If you’re looking to be even more accurate, strap on your goalie pads and blocker as well. Once that is done, get comfortable in your natural stance (the one you’d be in during a majority of gameplay) and look for the following:
1. The entire blade of the stick is flush with the ground while being 1’ - 2’ in front of your feet
2. After getting your stick into the flush position, check that the inside edge of the blocker hand sits on the outside edge of the goal pad (this is while holding just above the paddle).
Goalie Stick Sizing Considerations
Goalie Stick sizing can be very subjective compared to other pieces of equipment. The reason for this is the ambiguity of each goaltenders ‘natural stance’, especially with younger goaltenders. It is rather common for children to use taller sticks in comparison to their height, as their stance depth isn’t usually as aggressive as a seasoned goalie.
The shaft length of a goalie stick is usually best left at its stock length, as it serves to counteract the weight of the blade and ideally place the center of gravity at the top of the paddle. The one exception to this rule is for advanced puck handlers, cutting the shaft will allow more power transfer when shooting as a result of being able to keep the blade flush to the ice while near the goaltender’s feet.
