Polo mallets, tips and how to

If you leave the end of the head (the part that you strike the ball with) as a tube cross section, you introduce quite a few unneeded glancing angles that make the strike less predictable - if you really want to get your professional bike polo ass on this (and become some kind of Brick Lane sex hero) it might help to cap these two open ends to give you a single flat (although I recommend a slight convex) striking surface on each end.

Although you might not really give a shit, in which case carry on.

Nice job by the way.

What would you use to cap the ends? After watching Polo overseas I've started it up here in Auckland (NZ) just made a bunch of sticks, had 15 people turn up this weekend, which I'm pretty happy with. Still, could do with a bit more advice on making sticks though..
