ECD Delta Pocket Placement

I currently have an ECD Delta that I plan to get restrung. I am totally lost on where to place the pocket, and am open to any and all suggestions. I would like this head to be good for GBs, throw well at long distances, and have decent hold. Thank you in advance for any input.

Some nemeses I've strung recently

Happened to string up a few goalie heads recently so I thought I'd post them. Both are for grade 3/4 goalies.

Nemesis 3 was a restring of the factory mesh. I noticed the small mistake on the top string after the fact but it still seems fine.

Decored 550 top string with 275 sides

Nemesis qs. Attempted to dye this grey but either the plastic didn't like the dye or I needed way higher concentration. Despite the failure It did come out cool with a subtle pattern to it. It's also close to the team colors so a happy mistake .

Used 12D disciple rhombus with the latest jedi top string. All 275 paracord except for the bottom. Could probably use a touch more breaking in but it throws amazing so I'm happy with it .

Adjustment

I have an STX Stallion with a low pocket and two shooting strings. Prefer very little whip and being able to feel the ball lightly roll off the top of the head when throwing. I had it dialed in for a while with no changes. It now clunks the top of the head, so I've lost accuracy and have to put more effort into passes.

What adjustments do I need to make for just a light contact?

Shooter set up

strung up an l4. Does anyone have any suggestions for the shooters? I don’t necessarily want whip but I want some feel and snap off the shooters. New to stringing so suggestions appreciated!!

Warrior burn next factory strung complete sticj

Bought the warrior burn next factory strung complete stick for a new kid (link below to see pocket / shooters) and it has a pretty inconsistent throw. Basically brand new but it will throw right at the ground (crazy whip) a lot of the time. any specific tips on how to fix this? was thinking taking out the bottom shooter but wanted to get ideas from here. Wondering if its a shooter fix or if the actual mesh is just junk.

First try at stringing. Looking for feedback

I couldn’t find a solid pattern to replicate, so took a guess on where to build it based on ECD tutorials. Be brutal, I plan to have to restring after my kid gives it a shot tomorrow at practice.

Question on mesh for a truly old head: Brine MD

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.

Why is this giving me such a hard time

I’ve strung goalie heads in the past but is there like a solid top string anyone knows of? I have such a hard time getting the alignment and the tension correct. Working with 12D impact mesh here

STX Prism Click Issue

I just strung the STX Prism with a pattern from ECD Greg, I put in two shooters two diamonds down and when I went to throw there was a clicking sound every time I passed the ball. I have strung many sticks and never had this issue. However I have a friend who has a Prism and his stick clicks too. I suspect that the scoop design on the STX is to blame, is there anything I can do to get rid of the clicking?

It has been properly broken in.
