its not as tight as i could of been, but in a way kind of better, it throws smooth, and holds amazing, it really conforms to the ball, better than mesh i think, i've used candian mesh, soft, hard, and 6D. and the only close to this hold is the candian mesh.

I would have used more coils. Things are going to get real inconsistent with that pocket.
Tighten everything up if you aren't going to restring it. Your leathers are bunched up too.

Its pretty nice. But it is pretty sloppy, it could definitely be cleaned up, and the leathers are really bunched up. It also looks like the pocket is off center, but that could be the pictures.
But all that matters is that it performs well, and you said it works fine so I wouldn't worry too much about it.
The only problems I see is that since the leathers are bunched up and it is sloppy it could become inconsistent down the road which could really mess up your game. I personally would redo it but thats just me.
Decent job overall.

Here's mine, which isn't that great ('twas my second custom ever), but it should help you out a bit.

Try coiling more on each individual coil.
EDIT: Also, it looks like your double interlocks are wrong.

Looks very sloppy, definately look at an interlocking tutorial and your head looks way warped. Maybe it's just the pics though.
