Currently, daughter has two pairs......
These for regular fields
These for turf games
Loves them both. Very comfortable....true to size....and they last
Just received my daughters custom Gloveworks glove yesterday (12.25"). Very impressed. Quality is top-notch and the price was right. Older daughter is using a 12.5" All-Star Vela...another great glove.
We've recently hit a plateau with my 14 year old DD. She's dedicated to getting better, I just don't have the knowledge myself to get her there. I've read through a ton of posts here, including the stickies. Some makes sense to me, some doesn't. She throws 47-50...but has been for the last...
John...as far as I know, the two closest are WI and IA
Softball Pitching Coach - Fluid Dynamics - Tincher Pitching
Also....give me a heads up next time Pauly is back in the area.

Daughter is the same....likes them tight. She is 5'6" and 130lbs. The cheap Champro's are her favorites. I get them from softball.com for $15 a pair. She has tried Mizuno, Under Armour, Wilson and Intensity...still prefers the cheap Champros.
Same thing here in MN. I wish they would front-load our schedule with non-conference games. Only 2 of our first 6 games are non-conference. We are supposed to start next Tuesday...but the forecast isn't looking too good right now.

Had a promo code to get it for $20 last year. Great video....sound sucks.

I've seen mostly 33" or 34" for high school level catchers. I can't say enough good things about the All-Star CMW3000 (http://amzn.to/2FT6ZrK) that my daughter uses.
