I bought a Rawlings GG series for my DD and it has really been a nice glove so far. I kept an eye out and Dicks dropped the price to $90 for like 2 weeks from $140 so got what I feel is the best glove for the money I could have gotten. She was 12 at the time so I wasn't ready to go the A2000 price range yet not due to her commitment but wanted to make sure she would take good care of the glove. Next glove will be the top end. Personally, I can recommend this glove especially for the money, break in time and it is holding up well. She plays ALOT of softball too. Great "step up" glove.
