The Tribe7 owner wrote me to ask how I liked the head. That was very cool and unexpected. So if you break it, hey, wow, you really can go all the way to the top. The hole placement is anything but traditional. The topstring holes are set up for mesh – if you string traditionals, you’re going to spend some time looking at this head and considering how to compromise (or come up with something unique). My initial thought was to go with a six-string traditional with the outermost leathers tied into the sidewall for a tighter channel in this universal-legal head. There’s a one-inch gap in the sidewall holes at the top where the flat scoop and sidewalls connect. Engineering-wise, I understand why you wouldn’t want this portion to have any holes. But if your personal preference (or my OCD) requires that the topmost shooter goes through the head so it doesn’t move, that ain’t happening on the Savage7. I opted to use the trapezoid-shaped sidewall holes, as it alternates oval-trapezoid-oval-trapezoid down the head. It’s an insanely stiff head – don’t let that thin scoop fool you.

no idea. I hope so. The head looks bizarre but I’ve seen it in action and it seems to work just fine! want to try those gloves too.
