    Any members sell Wilson gloves?

    Finally talked daughter out of Shoeless Jane and into a Wilson SR32. Do any of the members sell them?

    What percent shade cloth makes for a good sunscreen that you can still see through?

    First base mitt for 10 year old

    I don't disagree, but I think it is in her mind that a catchers mitt isn't the way to go. If we haven't already begun to play, I would likely move forward with the Vinci Fortus and play with it. Our current pitcher isn't throwing extremely fast, so I am comfortable with a 1B mitt for now. If...

    First base mitt for 10 year old

    She does both, but as of right now she is mostly behind the plate. I bought her a Mizuno youth catchers mitt and she tried another brand (not sure which), but she didn't like either; she went right back to her fielders glove.

    First base mitt for 10 year old

    I was leaning toward the FP Gold series 12.25, since it is softball specific. I will try to research on each though. I'd like to get something she can be using within a few weeks.

    First base mitt for 10 year old

    Said the 12" may not be big enough for a 12" ball, which she will be using this spring for school ball. Could probably handle the 12.25 if she has good hand and wrist strength.

    First base mitt for 10 year old

    Thanks. I just contacted them for their opinion on which model for a 10 year old.

    Wilson A2000 First Base Mitt

    Thanks. She currently used a 12" Shoeless Jane fielders glove. I was waiting until she could handle a 12.5 1B mitt, but current team needed a catcher. She doesn't like catchers mitt, so I may bite the bullet and get a 12" 1B mitt. Thinking middle of road quality, since we will likely have to...

    Is it for baseball or softball?

    Wilson A2000 First Base Mitt

    What size and age? I have a 10U that I need to get a first base mitt for. I'm thinking about a middle of the road quality 12".

    First base mitt for 10 year old

    After much research for a catchers mitt, I think I’m going to get her a 1B mitt. What are some good mitts for a 10 year old? She currently uses a 12” Shoeless Jane, which she caught with today.

    New to catching - advice on gear needed

    Ended up finding a used Mizuno Prospect Select 32-1/2" on Justballgloves.com for about $35 shipped. I figured it would be in bad shape, but wanted something for her to start practicing with and use in a tournament in a couple weeks, until I decide on the Vinci Fortus. The mitt came in...

    Mitt for 10U

    I see a couple used ones for 180-200 on just gloves, trying to find the differences in the L and W models. Do Nokona’s have deeper webs? Really surprised to see a 32-1/2” model for $400 new.
