profile

i think i'm gonna get a profile, but should i get hard mesh or traditional? i've always used mesh but i heard good things about traditional? what has the best hold and fastest shot, etc?

[WestSideLa X eR]

trad=harder shot, more hold

trad=more maintenance, less smooth release

[SheepShank]

Hard mesh = low maintenance, better for beginners (not saying you are)

this is my 3rd year, and i've always liked mesh, but what kind of maintenace is in traditional?

[SheepShank]

Tightening and loosening the leathers on the stick, because they stretch and shrink.

[Tony]

it's not that hard is it? it's kinda like adjusting your mesh pocket after rain right?

I would recommend against getting a profile. They have a defect that makes them break right below the scoop on the sidewall. I have broken 2 in a 6 month perioid like this.

hard mesh i have six of them and the two traditional ones are a ***** to get right
