My stick gives up a lot of rebounds. Any ideas?

deeper pocket.. either that or break the pocket in more if you are using hard mesh.. also try using soft mesh... less bounce to the pocket. just keep it dry.

hey dave.. they need to make some mini mesh for a goalie stick... that would be pretty sick. it would have some killer whip to, and not too much ball control, but it would be very fast and accurate if you make some sort of channel.
anyways, yeah, i meant to mention 10d mesh too, but many people also use 12d. it is has a really good trade off with control/accuracy along with pass speed.

WE COULD INVENT IT! Err...the KatyDave goalie mesh...or something less stupid. :agree :laugh
For a channel you could just use laces. =P
Yeah 12D mesh is nice too, but I love my 10 D.

its not necessarily the stick that is giving up the rebounds. although that is a big part of it, stick movement is also important...
