How do you get a deeper pocket for your lacrosse head.

Question

when I try to use a pocket pounder it doesn't work. I also try to loosen the bottom part of the head but I don't have enought string to do that.

Answer 1

you might want to get a new head...or get some new string and redo it.

Answer 2

Take a baseball if you have one (a lacrosse ball works fine too) and put it in your pocket, then place a s***w driver between it and the bottom of your head.  Leave it there for about a day, then when you take it out work it some.  Test it to see if it is illegal, and if it is just tighten your string.

Answer 3

well depending on the type of mesh. hard mesh takes a bit more effort than soft mesh. What i do to make my pocket bigger is i wet the the mesh. it doesn't damage it. then i take a lacrosse ball and literally pound the pocket for 10 mins non stop. usually that all u need along with playing wal ball but if u still want to make bigger, wet the pocket, place a ball in there , take a knife or ruler and stick through the sidewall strings over the ball which streches the pocket.

  now sometimes the mesh is just not able to strech as far as u want it to so either get new mesh or loosen your sidewall strings where you want the pocket to be.

frankly this should be enough but dont do these steps offened because eventually one of the strings or even stick will give out and snap or rip
