Traditional Stringing Project for Joe Walters


Pro player, Joe Walters, recently asked if I could string three heads for him this season. He asked for five diamond traditional, pita pocket and a Maryland themed pocket. These first two of three heads for Joe Walters are almost done. The next phase is adding some shooters, trimming all the excess and then making sure they throw right. I’m always interested to see which head the player likes best, and how they like it to throw. If I’ve thrown with all three pockets, and the player can tell me what he likes best about each one, it helps me the next time I’m stringing those pockets for anyone else. As soon as I finish up with a pita pocket to complete the set, I’ll post them all on here, and explain what I did to each to finish them up.
