The two strings in the middle are the shooting strings and the ones on the outside help control the ball when cradling.
Go to ComLax.com and go to stringing supplies
any time you change, remove, or tamper the strings it will change how the head will throw. depending on how your other shooting strings are set it will either create more whip or take some off. but yes you can take the U string off
Replace the mesh,shooting strings,sidewall strings, dye the head.
There really isn't any specific way to string a women's lacrosse head. There are multiple stringing patterns which are to provide each player with a pocket that works best for them and their position.
You use nylon strings called sidewall and tie knots and loops to string the mesh into the head.
Throwing with a goalie stick should be done in an overhand motion. The release point would be just past the shoulder at 11 o'clock. The difficulty comes in when the stick is strung incorrectly. This is the case with most off the shelf sticks. You want a stringing done so that you have a deep pocket (to catch) and a tight top (to throw). The best way to string is for all the sidewall being taught and when you get to the bottom string locate that string through 2-4 diamonds below where the last sidewall string went through. This allows for a deep pocket down low and slowly rises to a taught mesh towards the top, allowing the ball to roll from the pocket to the shooting strings with ease. Lastly the shooting strings. If you feel the ball bump off the last shooting string then it is too close to the pocket side, move it up a diamond, or remove it all together. I find two shooting strings works best and I do not bother with that 3rd U or V string. With a well done string job it is not needed.
