It throws fine, i didn't even think it was that deep... I think what did the trick was when i put a ball in and piled like 60 pounds of wieghts onto it.

ish? lol the rebounds are nice because when i just leave it without a ball in it the pocket gets slightly smaller, so it has more give to it.

Ever though about clipping the mesh at the bottom, or tying it up?

lol that is alot of extra mesh. By the way nice dye, where did you get it from? (Is that a Yankees hat in the back ground? Boo hiss)

I was thinking of that too, i might try it out if i get more sidewall string.

wait, for the magic wand pocket, for the x's on the side do you use sidewall string or nylon?

That was a rhetorical question about the hat.
And have you tried the weights, because that helps a ton.

work some shampoo into the mesh with some water, and then beat it and weight it. then take the weights out, and rinse the pocket and then store it with the weights, goalieskcickay is right, weights are awesome if you want a bag

when the pocket is 4 balls deep, or the when the crosse is turned at more than 90* and the ball is still able to stay in. i will give someone 20.00 if they could make a pocket 4 balls deep and still throw with it... movies are required.lol
