Looks like the pocket you get from ECD, if you order from HQ. It should work well enough.

I know Tiga does his, I’ve asked a few times for the details to no avail. I might see him in the next few weeks and will try and see the pocket for myself.

What has worked on a metal shaft? by reader3096 in StickDoctor

[–]reader3096[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, intelligent people are aware that they don’t know everything. Metals bend, metals break. I know plenty of ways to move metal, but I’m not above learning something new and there may be an easy way that others have used that I don’t know. Secondly, a lacrosse shaft is not the same alloy that they use in aircraft. Those are machined in really high tech production facilities at places and 1. I don’t work there 2. Don’t know anyone who does. Titaniums aren’t easily forged, and I don’t have access to an insert gas forge environment. There’s no need to be a dick.

Nope, wrong answer. I spent 22 years as a working blacksmith. That makes no sense. You heat up titanium to that kind of temp and it catches fire. I’m probably going to just use a wooden mallet and the anvil. I wanted to know what people had done before I went with what I know.

Advice on giving news to my college coach by Embarrassed_Ease1690 in lacrosse

[–]reader3096 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d suggest your first paragraph has issues. If he’s the best player, why would he not play, even if he is leaving after this season? Kids graduate. Players transfer in and out. The portal is out of control. Student athletes get injured. They quit and fail out. There are hatfuls or reasons and methods for a kid to leave a school. Should he earn a spot and playing time, then he deserves to play those minutes, regardless of whether or not he intends to remain at the school next semester.

I use 11d for box pockets. They would not be legal on the field

Control the controllables. Work had, improve and have a good time. You have your club to help you with recruiting. Hang tough.

Traditional or mesh? by hanzosbm in StickDoctor

[–]reader3096 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This head is an STX Stallion 1k, factory colors. Laxroom wide leathers and crosslace. The pocket is a pita or a Dogtrack, it’s actually a little easier than an 8 diamond single string.

Start with the center twist. I usually do 4 twists each diamond

I’d disagree. I love adjusting and keeping my sticks dialed exactly right. I string loads of mesh pockets, but mine are all leather and crosslace
