Default Shooting strings?

There are many vatiations of shooting strings, and I have always gotten a "V" with 2 straights. Ive seen double "V", 3 straights, and I want to know the difference. Will any different one make the head throw better? Does it matter? Ive always wanted to know.

V's and U's do make the head throw differently..

V's often in my opinion reduce whip while U's gain whip

its really all in how tight you string anything....rolled usually offers less whip as well

yea, U's, since they are not gradual and only take up 2 to 4 diamonds length-wize, have more whip because the width of the acually U is that of the balls causing it to sort of get caught in it. although, Vs are usually much long length-wize and get to a sharp point, causing the ball to be guilded and not slowed down

I've always been a fan of the double V.

I guess I'll do V, 2 straights. The V is susposed to be loose, the 1st straight tighter, and the 3rd the tightest right? I plan on doing weaved hockey laces.

I go 2 straight, 1 V and my boys do the same. That's what works for me. I've used the combo for over a decade.
