I have a kid (7) who just started playing lax. I pulled out my old sticks to throw with him, and the traditional pocket in my favorite old D stick was destroyed by age - it’s about 35. I bought a StringKing mesh kit to restring it, but apparently a lot has happened to head geometry in 35 years. Modern mesh doesn’t stretch across the top of the head.

Anyone have suggestions on how to bridge the gap? It’s been a few decades since I’ve strung a head, so hoping to avoid getting back up to speed on a traditional pocket. Thanks.
