Okay, so as a few of you may know, I recently got an order from Jimalax, and it had some Silver Cata in it. When I went to string it up, I did interlocking knots, going for a low pocket. As I got lower, I doubled up on a few of the holes, but.....since the top is tighter than the bottom, the mesh gets pulled together to form a channel (sp); and that channel is too thin, to the point where the ball won't roll out. I'm stringing it on a Blade, if that has anything to do with it.

So...how do I keep that from happening? I want a Pocket 34 style pocket (tight up top, low pocket for a quick release), but the channel is too thin.

And, then when I double up near the bottom, the mesh gets pulled in and traps the ball so it can't move. Obviously, I can't play with it then.

Soo...I know I asked quite a few questions, but I would appreciate it if any of you mesh stringers out there could help me out, cause I'm gettin pretty PO'ed :hot: .

Thanks!

(I did do a search on this, didn't find anything useful)

Okay, start to double up higher and higher up in the head each time to widen the channel up.

Yes but...I'm going for a low pocket here.

start doubling near the middle. i'm guessing you don't want a bag like mine?

It was actually a problem with the second to last interlocking knot, I got it figured out. Thanks guys!
