Heres what was my try at a pita variation using a shooting string for the center. Then I took the 2 outside leathers out and got this thing that actually has good hold and with a few more shooters will throw perfect.

What did I do with those leathers? I made a makeshift corner pocket. I had no sidewall string so I used a shoelace for both sidewalls and top string. Throw in some mesh from my mini razer and it actually throws really good. If theres anything I should fix let me know because I just did this off of what I remembered a corner pocket looked like.

Pita is not good...


The corner's not bad.


Seriously, the channel should be lace the outer shootng string it gives you hold... the channed has to be stiff.

NOt a corner pocket. You need to cut the mesh skinnier maybe 6d or even 5. I do 5

edited cause what i said was mean


but the pita check out the tutorials here on the site.. and on the corner pocket cut the mesh skinnier and also your leather is backwards the part that goes into the scoop should be onthe under side of the head

dude, the first one isnt a pita even if the shooters were leathers, i have no clue what it is and its really sloppy,
And the corner isn't that bad if you work on it a lot it could be pretty good.

I know its not a pita, I tried to make it one but something went wrong between the the start and end of it. BTW, I don't think they are amazing, I just wanted to see what you guys thought of 'em

Wow. Those are nice. I can't really find anything wrong with them. They are perfectly symmetrical, and the colors are nice too. I like how you used the shooters. Maybe you could make a tut for those.

the corner looks nice and clean. but you either put the leathers in backwards or didnt use both holes in the leather

that pita is dreadful man. the corner looks alright, but not really like a corner pocket...if you know what i mean. you should cut the mesh skinnier.
