Guys,
I need a couple of goalie heads strung up and would prefer not to have to go to middleton. No real reason other than I don't want to drive out there.

PM me for details and prices...

I would say try to do them yourself. Nothing better than being able to string your own(or your sons) heads.

Normally, I would agree but I gotta tell you, the two I did are seriously flawed. For me to do it would retard the kids development...

Well option A is Jace. Option B is string them on your own. My personal experience is a well strung goalie head is created after it's strung. Lots of time forming the pocket and breaking it in. Basically as long as you don't completely eff up stringing it, if you break it in right you'll be fine.

Option A is not Jace unless he wants to mail them to Milwaukee.

That's what I was inferring by he didn't want to drive to Middleton that he was going to send them somewhere. My bad if I was mistaken in assuming that.

i would do it if you had mesh to send them to me in milwaukee, but honestly i would really recommend you trying to string them yourself. it's such a better way to get what you want/don't want by trial and error. there is still plenty of time before the season to perfect it.

the tutorial posted is alright, but i would recommend this one.

as for mesh, i would recommend 12 or 14 D. the hard mesh (17/20) diamonds really are hard to break in/string.
