If you are gonna do trad on a goalie stick, you might as well for for the gold.

Bow to it's presence, bask in it's glory.

EDIT: Just realized it's on a Guardian, but still. Drill some extra holes, maybe.

Make sure that all of your leathers stay even with each other because I can imagine that if you pull one too tight towards one direction on a goalie stick, the whole pocket will be very uneven, due to the size of the stick. You can sort of tell if this happens on a players stick (you can REALLY tell if it's very uneven) so I can only imagine it'd be worse on a goalie stick.

you need a head that has an even number of holes along the top: guardian and goalmaster are the 2 i know of off the top of my head.

if you have a leather that runs down the middle of the pocket you are going to have problems with it. there are a number of other threads on goalie trad.

you will need goalie leathers. mine came from jimilax, but i also bought a bunch of uncut leathers at bacharach a few years ago. you might find them at your local store
