Shut up Bigd, and stop being so post naziish. You could try a few things: Tighten or loosen the shooters, tighten the sidewalls or bottom string, or add in a really tight nylon shooter 1 row of diamonds below the plastic.

yeah id adjust the shooting strings or just re-string it all together. also i believe hard mesh throws harder than softmesh, but its a bit harder to catch with, because it doesnt have as much give.

One problem minght be that you are trying to pinch your stick. With a pinched stick it is harder to catch.

hey guys im just going to post my question here instead of starting a new post. I would like to know what a realy realy durable stick is, besides f10, but a realy durable stick that wont break or Bend. i dont care bout weight too much, but something alil lighter then the f10.

I am currently using an f22. f15 is basically the same priciple, but the f22 is c405 and is a lot lighter. Mine is an extralight c405, I believe there are a couple different types. If you need better catching, work on it. If you just started playing d, it might take a little while to be able to use such a longer pole in catching effectively. I was started with mine a year ago at the beggining of my first season. As for throwing and catching, I've found the best pocket to be mid-moster mesh. It's pretty much right in the middle of every aspect.
