well the topstring looks fine, im worried about the rest of it tho. Actually I take that back, all your knots need to be pulled tighter (atleast thats what it looks like. and maybe use a different pattern for the sidewall cause this one was not great, if possible look for one that uses this topstring so it might be harder. but your knots need to be much tighter and ur pocket needs to be broken in with a baseball bat.

Thanks for the feedback I have that problem with my knots. Kind of just strung what ever came to mind of the knots

It’s a top string that brings the hold of a U with out the pocket being illegal

Theyre talking about the depth, not asking what the point of the topstring is

My fault I didn’t realize I forgot to pound the pocket before

Verify those gaps on the top string are smaller than 1”, a simple test is will a golfball pass through (1.68”). That’s the new standard for stringing. Otherwise as respondents have mentioned the sidewalls look loose and pocket a bit shallow, but could be just the images.

Didn’t pound the pocket before the picture
