My first pinch job and 2nd time stringing. It has more whip than my friends bionic and throws low so someone help me out. I'm really bad at taking pics but i'll take more if needed. Constructive criticism appreciated.

Nice job on the pinch. But the pocket is small. Pound that sucker and if it has whip then restring it. Can't give anymore info right now because I just woke up and can't really think of anything.

if you want the pocket deeper use this tutorial http://www.lacrosseforums.com/showthread.php?t=22944
if you follow the tutorial it will have a little bit of whip and a lot of hold. Nice pinch though

No, it is really pinched. The first photo is it unpinched the other photos show it pinched.

That is an awesome first time pinch. Probobly the best 1st pinch I've seen in a very long time. As for the string job, the setup is perfect, but your pocket needs some pounding. Overall, great job!

That does look good, but yeah, the pocket could use some help.

Is that stx mesh on the bionic? I think you should change the mesh because stx dura mesh is known to stretch a lot and I don't use it because I tend to get a lot of whip with the mesh.
Get regular hard mesh from jimalax.com
Your topstring looks nice but I'm not sure about the sidewalls. If you follow one of the mesh tutorials, you might be able to get a better pocket

That's a nice pinch. It kinda looks like a duece now but without the black rubber. Pocket is horrible though.
