i have done a pita before, but this is my first go at a "custom" pocket

no the leathers are not crooked..its my lack of picture taking skills :crazy:

and the kinda ugly knot things in the middle is where i ran out of string, and added more. it looks better in real life, and doesnt effect the way it throws at all.

it has absolutely no whip, is barely legal, but i still cant find a way to get more hold. i added a shooter and it helped a little, but still not as much as i'd like. oh and also, i know i have posted this head numerous times before, but its basically a mess around head.

:thumbsup: C+C APPRECIATED :thumbsup:

Looks real good. Once it gets broken in the hold might get better.

i regret to inform you that your general pocket idea is done by a store. i have to find the store, but if you take away the saddle and coil, and fix the twists on teh sidewalls, its a pocket strung by a company. lemme dig through my history and find it.

not bad though, but fix those sidewall twists.
