Theory: Corner Pockets 

Love Greg at work!

"ive changed... it was a mistake... its over now" lollll gregs ankles

Do a tutorial please

Greg can you do a tutorial on how to use scissors?

I used a corner pocket in high school on an edge aero. Loved that thing! Strung it myself and never let me down. Used leathers to hold the mesh, 2 normal shooters and a V shooter. Kinda crowded, but very accurate for me. 39g and 22a. Only year I used it cuz I went back to goalie my senior year

your song choices are honestly the coolest ones ive heard

I did one of these for my son on his backup stick. There is a lot more ball movement when cradling. The thing I don't like is that I couldn't keep the lateral tension across the top as tight as I would like. Leads to the ball clicking off of the head upon release. And I couldn't get the leathers to work either as the narrow mesh wouldn't lay flat rather it would have a wave pattern following where the leathers went in and out. I used two passes of sidewall on each side with one barreled capturing the edge of the mesh. One tip versus how Greg cut his mesh, use a razor blade and slice right up the middle between the two diamonds. The old piece of hard mesh I had split very nicely using this method. Also, avoid any soft mesh for this, the cross lace has no stiffness, with soft as opposed to hard mesh the shifting of the pocket would be rather extreme. Of the various heads I've dyed and strung up for my son and his teammates, nothing garners half of the attention as his plain white head, white mesh, yellow string corner pocket. Players are always looking at it and asking to throw with it.

on a serious note please make a tutorial on how you strung this.

I play goalie but I sometimes play some middie and switch with my teams LSM because I don't have much stamina. I had a piece of 12D ecd goalie mesh that ripped so I cut a 2D strip and made a shallow corner pocket that releases very very fast so it is good for the snipe feed onto the crease man. I've had the same piece of ECD 12d mesh for over two years and strung up tons of sticks with it. STX eclipse when it was new, cut to 10d when it ripped once, then cut to 6d and put on a cobra, then cut to 4d and put on same cobra, then cut it about a month ago and have it on a evo. Thanks for the amazing mesh yall make. 2 pieces of mesh I got the day you came out with 12d and still using it!

Have you ever seen a "West Genny pocket"? Back when they (we) were winning NYS titles regularly there was one pocket that everyone used because it was very, very consistent and has a quick release. It was maybe a 4 on the lip scale which was where concessions were made because Messere's theory was that you don't need to blow the ball by the goalie, you need to be deceptive. Plus- If you need to shoot the ball hard, that means you're far out, and if you're at distance, you shouldn't be shooting. To this day it is the best pocket I have ever used and many of the guys at UAlbany asked me to string it for them. Love the channel - you do awesome work

so weird yet so awesome. I love how there are so many ways you can string your head.

Nicely done Greg!

My coach in youth would always string up corner pockets for us. I love em

That looks so sick!

Been using a corner pocket for a few months now, I love it but for me it did take a while to adjust it to just the way I like. I used braids instead of leathers, which gave it more of a stiffer feel where I wanted it. I used two straight shooter laces behind one tightly bound thicker string. The release is pretty nice and consistent but what I really love about it is how it feels when catching. It has just the right amount of sway and give that it will allow you to make tougher catches with less effort. Been thinking about cutting down 6 diamond mesh to make one for my d-pole

Greg, you should do a theory Thursday on using/stringing heads that have been pinched.

Song is: Sam Smith - Stay With Me (JayKode Trap Remix) Greg must have taken out the singing at the beginning. It's the song though.

Yours is by far better than my first corner pocket

I played with one as a dpole for the first half of the year my bro strung it for me!

that looks so sweet

Could you make a tutorial of this corner pocket I am looking for new stringing techniques for my sticks.

I've never seen a pocket like that but I would definitely be interested in a tutorial on how to string that up and sort of like a step by step process but a really slick looking design!

I think the topstring is a little off center cause you used a different hole on one side then the other but I do like it

Is it my imagination or is the top row of diamonds asymmetrical? Anyway, beauty pocket. I may do something like this for my son's stick on his seventh birthday. The possibilities are endless. Thanks.

YES! Tutorial

That hawk in the back

Do a stringing video

I had a variation of a corner pocket and we called it flappy because we didn't cut off the sides of the mesh, we left it there for looks, hence the name flappy. It lasted two years until the mesh was breaking down of wear. I might strung one up just for giggles lol

Love the video style

Tried to string one in 3rd grade, It sucked really bad though. a lot more experienced now so thinking bout doing one. Sweet vid

Top string??? You went (looking at the back) tie 1st hole skip 2nd tie 3rd tie 4th tie 5th!! skip 6th....

Wow! Nice ankles!!!

Recently strung a corner pocket. The closest pocket style I can compare it too is a Rock-It Pocket but without all the whip.

That heads pretty nice

No rush. If you have the time, a tutorial would be great!

Yes a tutorial video would be nice I'm thinking about stringing a corner pocket myself 👍

I see that hawk greg... Stop holding out

I say cut the mesh thinner to 4 diamonds and then put leathers next to it. Then the leathers take away the rattle and the diamonds are smaller to get a track that fits the ball better. Just my suggestion

Can you do a tutorial I really want to string one of these but I don't know how

seriously i think the best setup is a mid pocket with 2 or 3 straight shooters. keep it classy. plus it teaches you to learn about channels and drag and become a better stringer, instead of relying on a tight U for hold and whip

I would definitely enjoy a corner pocket tutorial

can u please do a tutorial

Can you do a tutorial please

It takes so much time to get right

Nice greg

Ya, you should do a tutorial for the corner pocket, that would be sick

1D is my favorite

Have always wanted a corner pocket

corner pockets are sick i might rock one when i get a cheape head to hang on the wall just to look good lol

could you make a tutorial on how to do this?

I tried to about 2011 in an old beginner head and it threw great. I was very surprised cause I was horrible at string back then but eventually the mesh broke and snapped since it was so old and I could never get it right again

Could you make a video on shooting with this corner pocket?!?! I would love to see that!!

Wouldn't the pocket shift and become illegal because of the moving sidewall design? Awesome video.

Can you make a tutorial on how to do this?

Stay with me- JayKode remix

I strung a corner pocket back in 07 I think it was the shit back then. It threw like a bag of rags though

I see the Hawks in the background... Anything special coming, Greg?

Nice!

I know one of the Thompsons has their stick strung up similar to this

Yes please make one

yeah the top string goes through different holes, you have it through the second whole, then the two middle holes n then you went through the 6th instead of the 5th top string hole which wouldve made it symmetrical. but no man's perfect!

thx

Do a tutorial on how to make a corner pocket and/or traditional pocket

Those hawks tho

I did one, kinda gimmicky, easy to do, works well if you do it high and only 4 wide, adds hold and is still consistent.

I want this!

YES please make a tutorial.

The top string is uneven you used the middle hole on one side

Can you do a tutorial on a corner pocket? I really want to learn how to do this.
