Hey guys, this was my first ever custom stick and I have been playing with it for about 1 month now. It seems to throw great and the ball seems to sit in the pocket well. any ideas to make it better?
thanks

Tighten up the channel a little, and interlock your knots. That will make it more consistent.

Between the 2 leathers, where the lace looks kind of loose. That's what they're talking about.

Everyone is saying the following, "don't change if it works."
But, it will change itself with loose crosslace... Loose crosslace is just as bad as loose sidewalls/top strings, they will make a difference over time...
Tighten up the crosslace and you'll be A-OK.

well Wubbie, if he is uses it and does ok with it he shouldnt change it because he will have to get used to it again.
