So, I honestly couldn’t tell any significant weight difference between my daughter’s current CMW3000 and the Liberty Advanced we’re trying to break in...even though SHE said the Liberty is heavier. I am not catching like she is, though, so what do I know??? 🤣
I know :( I did as well. No luck.
She turned 15 end of June and plays 18U. She said the Liberty is heavier than her CMW3000, so I was curious about the Vinci. The weight of the Liberty isn't a deal-breaker, I was just curious how the Vinci might compare :)
Okay, so here are some pics of her AS CMW-3000 and a non-broken-in Rawlings Liberty Advanced
Do you think I should work on trying to pound out the heel area of her AS??
That's why I am asking now because if I am going to get her a new mitt I'd like to have it well on its way by spring tournament season.
I will fully admit, though, that we ARE NOT good at breaking in mitts. We SUCK at it (which is why the CMW3000 sat around for 12-18 months while she continued...
My daughter’s head coach is a female with small hands.
The other coaches didn’t use it, just looked at it.
I will definitely take a look at pounding it out more and potentially loosening the laces!!
Hey!! I was hoping you’d reply! We love her custom HOH fielding glove you recommended, so that is definitely an option!
Think that has a deeper pocket than the CMW3000?
She has been using her CMW3000 consistently in games for about a year now. We had it for a good year before that. We sent it...
Hi All!
I think my daughter (15yo/18U tournament) may need a new catcher's mitt. She currently has a Vela All-Star CMW3000 33.5 which isn't that old and is still in good condition, HOWEVER, balls tend to pop out of it.
I truly THOUGHT it was my daughter just dropping balls (as did her coach)...
