Lacrosse at Top of Heart Danger Sports List

John Weaver — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 15:17:23 +0000

A lacrosse ball hurled at 30-100 mph can kill a man. It’s been proven, unfortunately, 19 times since 1980. Sometimes the tragic but rare incidents make the national news, like when Cornell University defenseman George Boiardi stepped into a shot during a 2004 game against Binghamton. He stopped the shot with his body like any [...]

Peter Kohn Passes Away

John Weaver — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 16:55:56 +0000

I got this in the mail from Skip Lichtfuss today: Anybody who ever had the privilege of meeting or spending any time with Peter Kohn will understand that today is a very sad day for the lacrosse world. I have many fond memories of Pete dating back to the great club days in the 70’s and [...]

Stick Tech: Camo Lady

John Weaver — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 17:15:36 +0000

I have been playing for about 2 years and have strung about 6 heads for me and my brother. I only did mesh but one custom for me. My Girlfriend just started playing and she bought a beginner stick and thought it was too plain. She is a country girl and loves camo and pink, [...]

Stick Tech: Re-use your strings

John Weaver — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 16:58:03 +0000

Hey I just dyed and strung for my first time and it looks great. I used old strings from my brothers broken stick but it turned out great. Thanks for all the tips on stick tech. They really helped! Submitted by Oliver.

Stick Tech: Home made shaft

John Weaver — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 16:47:38 +0000

I’ve attached a few pics of a stick I built. I made the shaft out of hickory and dyed and strung the head (Gait Chaos). The shaft has a hollow core. It’s light and durable. The shaft in the picture was used by my son last season. I sanded it, put on a new coat [...]

Stick Tech: Lose the nylon shooter

John Weaver — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 16:42:33 +0000

I have a great tip for lacrosse stringing. Instead of stringing in a nylon shooting string as one of your shooters, put in an extra hockey lace or no string at all. It will give the head less hold but that can be fixed by tightening the shooting strings. It makes the head throw like [...]

Stick Tech: String won’t fit through holes

John Weaver — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 16:40:53 +0000

Some heads have holes that are so small it is hard to fit the sidewall string through them. When you are faced with this predicament, melt about an inch of the end of the sidewall string with a lighter (ask your parents), then cut the tip off in the middle of the hardened end so [...]

Reader Tip: Working in your mesh

John Weaver — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 16:38:15 +0000

A lot of people break mesh in too much or can’t find a way to break it in. Some people say patience is the way to break in your mesh. I say that’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. When you get mesh, stretch it out a little, just big enough to be able string it [...]
