FLmiddy, that looks pretty sick, what part of Florida you in? I'd like to maybe let you string me one up... xD

Nice job for first time, looks great.

Looks sick man, nice and neat, it also looks like it throws pretty nicely.

Nice job. That looks like a great high pocket. How's it throw and what's the whip situation like?

i have a question about corners (i've never strung one before) do you have to cut a few rows off the mesh to make it narrower?

im not sure if you HAVE to cut it, but it seems like it would be illegal if you didnt. usually people cut 1 or 2 diamonds off each side, but you can cut more or less to your preference of how wide you want your channel to be

It looks really nice, and i love that high pocket...So hows she throw?

And yea you have to cut it. If you didn't want to ruin mesh i guess you could fold it back? Maybe but i have never tried it, or seen it done...Someone should try it though...

Looks excellent no doubt. However, I have always wondered what the difference is between stringing it like this, and stringing it like Great Atlantic or Lax.com do? Take a look: here (http://www.lacrosse.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Merchant_Id=1&Section_Id=14&pcount=&Product_Id=18379) . See how much extra string they throw in there? Lax.com does a little less dramatic of one, compared to Great Atlantic's, but still more stringing than the way illustrated here. Sorry to totally hi-jack your thread, because your pocket looks A+, but its somewhat of a rarity to see a custom corner on here and it aroused some interesting philosophisizing in me.

EDIT: 600 BABY WOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
