    What glove would you get for a pitcher?

    I'd do a custom Gloveworks 12-12.25. Their gloves are extremely underrated.

    Gloveworks gloves ?

    Gameday option. We picked it up on sale and shipped was right at $120. I think they put Asian hand stalls in it and tightened the wrist a bit. I cannot even begin to put my hand in this glove and she says the fingers are a little tight. I told them the glove was for a 13 year old for softball...

    Gloveworks gloves ?

    This one is a GO95 12.25". For narrower finger stalls the Asian line is great but my daughter has large hands. The new GA304 is a 12" Asian model that would be perfect for softball. Wider pocket. Just ordered my daughter a welted wingtip she picked out for Christmas which is the last photo...

    Gloveworks gloves ?

    Gloveworks is great as far as baseball gloves. Tons of options. Their softball gloves seem a lot more...limited. Baseball models work just fine for softball. My daughter has been using one now for a few months and wants another with the new 12" model they have GA304 with welted wingtip and...

    Leaping? Or replanting?

    I am just not fully understanding what I am seeing I guess and how it is legal at this level. It is odd to see them go airborne, land with both feet, and then pitch. We had a high school girl do this during this season and was called every time, girl quit the team and went back to travel ball.

    Leaping? Or replanting?

    Japan vs Mexico Girls 15u My daughter was watching highlights, link above. Seems every pitcher in these games is pitching this style. Their replant seems much less pronounced though.

    Kinetic Arm

    OP said they would update it and figured I would ask since it has been about 6 months.

    Kinetic Arm

    Any update on this? Strength and conditioning coach recommended it but I have never seen anyone use one before.

    Vinci Optimus Series JS ?

    I noticed that in the softball ordering there was no option to choose different weltings. Looks like they just come with single welting. I also do not see an option for baseball gloves to have split welting. Also, I have dug through as much information as I could about these gloves and am sad to...

    Vinci Optimus Series JS ?

    All her friends have fancy-colored 44 gloves that looked good for about a month. Most of them are the color of baby poop or mud now with laces that keep breaking.

    Vinci Optimus Series JS ?

    I did not even notice. My daughter is boring. She prefers plain brown gloves. All she cares about it the web and making sure it doesn't have a velcro wrist.

    Vinci Optimus Series JS ?

    Can't afford a custom Rawlings unfortunately. She had her bag stolen right from the dugout a few months ago. We are just now about done replacing everything. Last thing on the list is new glove to replace her super soft Louisville Lxt she has.

    Vinci Optimus Series JS ?

    She is a die hard tip glove user. Anyway to tell if any the GW models would support that? I'm assuming that we should avoid the softball model?

    Vinci Optimus Series JS ?

    She has a 1st base mitt she got a few months ago.

    Vinci Optimus Series JS ?

    Do a little thread hijacking here...my daughter is currently on the hunt for a glove to get her through the next 4 years. She made some money during the wheat harvest and is eager to spend it. Her current favorite is this one...

    Where Have All the Pitchers Gone?

    I know after a year of pitching lessons my daughter's pitching coach finally said she was ready to pitch in games. This was after numerous sessions of her coming in on her own time to pitch to batters for hitting practice. None of the local rec or travel teams would give her the time of day...

    1st base mitt question

    Thank you! Not sure where I heard they were different.

    1st base mitt question

    I have dug through the forums trying to find this answer and failed to do so. Is there a difference between a baseball 1st base mitt and a softball one? My daughter had her gear stolen a few months ago and has been using a borrowed mitt. We went around trying on gloves and she prefers the way...
