Everybody has their favorites. I see Softball.com is pushing the Force 3 you mentioned. Slugger also made a good set in series 5 & 7. That was our 1st set.
I’m more concerned with cushioning and shock absorption than how mask is mounted. I guess looks count especially with girls but I’ll take substance over style in terms of protection.
Cage mounting point locations are not about style and ALL about substance. Cage mounts at the forehead transmit impact energy from hits to the cage directly to the forehead area. All-Star/UA, Wilson Pro Stock, and Easton Pro-X eliminate the forehead mounts which moves those forces away from the forehead. Yes, padding is also very important, and some is better than others. The Easton Prowess/M-series is not good - too much rigid EPS, not enough absorption. The Easton Pro-X is a massive improvement in this area.
Personally, I think the LS stuff has always been sub-par.
