How do i string a 6 diamond lacrosse head?
I want to learn how to string a lacrosse head, i bought a six diamond and a regular hard mesh stringing kit, to learn. I have no idea what to do on my heads and how to adjust the whip. If you have a website please list it, also any detailed answers are welcomed, thank you.
Looking at a stick that you have that’s already strung is a good guide for the side walls and the top string.
As for whip, there are a couple of things to consider. Higher pockets tend to have more whip. The placement of your shooters will also have some affect on whip.
Your top shooter shoulder probably be straight and is best anchored to the head. This string should be fairly tight and the tightest of all the shooters you string. The bottom shooter should be the loosest and middle strings should be in between.
Vs tend to offer more hold while straight shooters will give less hold, but a quicker release. Us give you something in the middle. Play around with those shooters to find what you like.
