They are the worst, most vague things I have ever seen..

http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/sm-how-to-string-your-lacrosse-pocket--bg-702312.html

The goalie tutorial pretty much says, "attach mesh to top of head, then do sidewalls" then it tells you to put the shooters on.. thanks, dick[s]

use the sidewalls to attach the mesh to the frame moving straight down the side of the stick.

Man, I've been doing it wrong all along! :banghead:

"First, take the 4 leathers and put them in the stick and pull them tight."

Hahaha, very detailed.

haha, that's horrible....i mean im a bad enough stringer as it is using this thing would just leave me clueless

The looser the pocket the greater the whip.

I think I may know who you were talking about, I think some guy had a Torque and just kind of wrapped the sidewalls around.. if we're thinking of the same gentleman.

once again, dicks pulls through again with another excellent thing,there very own tutorial (sarcasm), when u can get a finalizer there for $30, or titan classic for $50. Dicks is so bad at knowledge of lacrosse, they should take that turorial down be4 some gets hurt when they try to string dicks way n kill some one.

No, the looser the pocket, the more whip it has. But if you have a series of tight shooting strings, your stick may have some whip too.

Wow, seriously. If your going to have a 5 year old do the tutorials, at least plagurize. Don't give us a paragraph long explanation on stringing a pita pocket. Seriously.

In the future, only make posts that apply to the thread. This thread is about the tutorial's on the Dick's website.

i know that all our their tutorials suck, but at least they tried, maybe in the future theyll improve them and get pictures, or just get a more experienced person to write them, but its still a start
