I've mastered the mesh, but now I need help stringing traditional. My pockets work great, but only on STX stuff because of the high pocket. Everything else (particularly my nitrous) I can't do it because I always do it too short. When I'm doing the zig-zagin part, I never go past the bottom of the plastic because I can't figure out how/what to attach it to. If you get what I'm saying, could you please help by leaving detailed idiot-proof instructions on how to do this, or PREFERABLY, show a PIC of a newly strung trad job with the leathers still pulled tight. I learned how to string from a STX stringin kit instruction booklet, but their little pics never even included the bottom of the head. Thanks again.

I know what you mean. I'll post pics when I get a chance but what you need to do it run the leathers down to the end of the stick, throught where you put the shaft, out one of the side areas which are usually open and then through the bottom holes so the end of the leathers are points towards the top. This lets you farther down on the pocket.
I don't know if that helped, but I'll post pics soon so you can see what I mean.
