it seems like all coaches like sticks with no pocket. (at least all of the ones I've had do)

looks good and I like the color combo

omg...

Is it even possible to play with that shallow of a pocket? Especially in a shotgun like that...

Pew pew... It looks good, the depth just kills me.

I use the term Shotgun loosely... As in simply a "non-off-set" head... So, it's used as a term for a straight head...

Excuse the mix-up.

Maybe your coach should pick up girls lax! LOL! I have seemed to notice that coaches like shallow pocket because back in "the day" there was more emphasis on good cradling, and you had to if you wanted to control the ball. Now days kids are learning to play lax with a head and pocket that literately hold the ball for you even when the sloppiest cradling is being done. Good pita laxkid.

Solid string job. My coach plays with his old excalibur with a shallow pocket too. And as you said, he snipes corners man.

I agree... But when I think shallow, I think maybe... 2/3-1/2 of the ball deep...

I for one use a 2/3 pocket, and it's much shallower then everyone else I know...

That's just a ridiculously small pocket.

yea my coach has a redic pocket too, its almost like he's playing with a tennis rarquet but he can destroy our goalie with it. but back to the point nice string job, i wish it was deeper lol.

Not to highjack the thread but my coach's stick is a illegally pinched edge with a bag. Hes not your average coach. More dip spit comes out of his mouth than words. But when he does talk the team listens.

haha my coach is the extreme opposite of that, he uses an illegally short CS10 with an illegally pinched kannon with a two ball deep bag. anyways, your stringing is really clean- me gusto
