So much for editing that! Hahaha

[@LAXER1315]

started using this shooter set up and i love it

[@jonahschoenike3651]

I hate shooting strings. I also hate whip. I also hate hold.

[@swatchyb6143]

Jonah Schoenike who the hell are you

[@maximofenn8681]

Wtf is wrong with you

[@jackduncan4935]

then u also hate lacrosse

[@knuckleslacrosse7513]

Eww😂

[@bradr472]

where did you get those awesome wall decals

[@pter·o·dac·tyl]

Chris (or Sam), could you cover how and when to use Us/Vs, especially regarding when the pocket is well channeled like the one Sam did for Rabil (I can never combine a pocket with a decent channel with a 6 diamond or smaller U/V (and a straight and a nylon above it, one row in between each) without getting too much catch and/or drag)? Plus, how are 3 diamond Us/Vs even practical since the ball doesn't sit properly in the top of the U/V? Thanks.

[@RuckusLacrosse]

I have that same exact shirt

[@mattandrews586]

What is the best setup for middirs. I usually go a nylon and two straight shooters, but is the double nylon and single shooter better

[@andypoulos8938]

Do you ever use shooters to increase hold in the stick by lowering them? What are your thoughts on this

[@Bobcats4038]

can you explain that stuffed shooter a little more?

[@reecehrycan5325]

I have the exact same shirt :))

[@aaronunroe5267]

Hey thanks for the video - where can a guy get strings and nylon these days? Any recommendations?

[@Panzerkuchen]

Did he put the 2 nylon shooters in the same diamond row?

[@ryanporter4083]

What about a theory on shooting strings tensioning?

[@gavinmcskeane8055]

What is your opinion on a box style shooting setup, like 4 straits. (Disregarding ncaa rules)

[@kingstonherbert1519]

I'm interested in this, too.

[@colebitner8211]

On my sticks I like feeling the ball come off of the scope is that bad? It works for me but idk if I should change it?

[@ericwoodard7005]

if it works for you then it works. a lot of people like the feeling of the ball clicking off the scoop on a shot

[@RuckusLacrosse]

Hey Chris, I Tried a nylon in my stick(because I had the same problem, (wanted to feel it come out more)) but it just added crazy whip and I had to take it out to get the whip I wanted, How do i fix that?

[@carolinastringslax7913]

Ruckus Lacrosse Try loosing it. Or just tighten or loosen the bottom string but if your still having issues than I would try a different sidewall pattern.

[@TrollingSkater]

try rolled shooters or barreled nylons it should have less whip and more feel

[@jm-mb6xc]

Is there whip and hold on your stick because I hate whip but I can't get hold without adding whip

[@brandon_gates7609]

get east coast mesh....it has great hold without adding whip

[@jakecordes5138]

agree with everything you said, but not all shooters want snap. connor buczek uses four stacked straights and hes a freaking sharp shooter

[@glleboy2233]

Is a double braided nylon any different than a double nylon

[@liamgasser8062]

USK-Glleboy yes. It lays flatter so it will provide roughly the same release with a softer feel.

[@hamsandwhich5219]

I have a maverick optik with string king 2s with a mid pocket. What shooter set up would you suggest for an attackman?

[@wyattoliver8226]

Try everything you can think of and use what you like the most

[@samn7667]

2 u's and a nylon

[@morganreese5309]

2 straights and a nylon

[@nickconnolly4051]

chris would you suggest 4 stacked v's???

[@samn7667]

No

[@morganreese5309]

child please no.

[@morganreese5309]

the shot will hook so much it will smash your balls

[@gangshootamars8441]

Lol morgan reese😂

[@davidelliott3090]

"I will be editing that" well.... close

[@qubach]

any thoughts on 4 straights ('box stye')? minus the illegality aspect.

[@samn7667]

I play box in canada and it is the best set up it has hold and a smooth release not much whip but it depends on the pattern you will never go back
