I am sure someone will get their hands on them and make a side by side comparison with Hongis and UA poly wools. They look rather dark on the pictures.

SportsDepot.com had the MVP 4000sl at one time for 209.99, I bought it earlier this year. You can get the 2500 matte finish via sports depot. -
Looking at new <acronym title='Hockey Style Mask '>HSM</acronym>.
jflores replied to Vegas's topic in Umpire Equipment
yeah sign me up for those going with All Star HSM. Just got it this year and its amazing. -
Thanks guys. It fit coming out the box, just required a bit tightening. This thing is awesome.
-
Just recieved the All Star MVP 4000Sl an upgrade from my previous pro-nine. Never thought of this for some odd apparent reason, is the HSM to be worn tight or lose? BTW this All Star rig is a pretty sweet HSM.

WV Platinum Chest Protector $129.00 Sports Direct w/ Free Shipping. Its where I purchased mine.
-
Have used Honigs, Purchase Officials, Lesters Upstate, Joe's Bat ($134.99 for Diamond Bag/Free Delivery and delivered in three days), Direct Sports (Platinum Chest Protector for $129.99 free delivery). All would get my money again, I use Purchase Officials a lot more due to the quality in Smitty Shirts and the Cost. Will use Gerry Davis for there charcoal pants due to most of the guys in our association use Gerry Davis, I like the smitty charcoal pants.
-
I am going with Gerry Davis for next season hopefully there is a sale in the spring. With that being said I been using the smitty charcoal and there great. Despite the name smitty has some quality products.

I recently upgraded to a Platinum. The MLU is my backup and gets used for everything under 14.

I live in Houston, Texas. How does one start to work his way up into the college ranks whether it be division 1,2,3 or JUCO. Does anyone know a contact person or perhaps what camps to attend that are nearby.

So I loaded up my bag with my 21-month old tonight, all I can say is wow. So much space. One of my best purchase. I spent quite a bit of money this year with new chest protector, new leg guards, new bag, new pants. Bottom Compartment: Wilson Platinum Chest Protector Wilson Hard Shell Chest Protector (For younger kids) Honigs K20 Shin Guards Pro Nine HSM (Hopefully wife gets me the All Star MVP 4000Sl for father's day, only been floating the idea for a month now) New Balance Plate Shoes Top Compartment: 6 shirts 6 undershirts Pair of plate and a pair of base pants Hats Pencils, Pens, Indicators, Brushes Base shoes in the shoe compartment I think my 21-month old wanted to jump into the bag.
-
1. It's there for sundries, like car keys, wallet, or something you need to get your hands on quickly without getting back into the bag. I always put brushes and indicators in it. 2. It's the top zipper on the bag in the back. you can also use it as a wet clothes section. Thank You. The bag looks real slick. Have not had the chance to take all my equipment out the trunk to fill up the new bag. I am sure my 21-month old will give me a hand tonight.
-
Ok so I got my bag from Joes Bats, good service and received in three days. Have not had the chance to transfer all my equipment into the bag but just a couple of observation/question. I hope I make sense. 1. What is up with the pocket on the left side (outside the bag), I mean its a zippered pocket, but what do you put in there cause its small? 2. Was there suppose to be a shoe bag included? Or is that just the top zipper where can slide your shoes in.
-
I did have the right way up, however, maybe it wasnt low enough, I will try again and update. Just felt different, which I expected.
-
wore it for the first time last night, does it take a while to get use to?? For some reason felt at time it was jabbing and was about to fall out. Am i suppose to feel any pressure?
-
Ok so I went ahead and ordered the diamond bag from Joesbats. Hope this bag is all what you guys said it is.

After the first comment, "that us enough", the next word out of his mouth and he would've been gone. Too much leash for a player.

As a father who has dealt with toy recalls, why would you use something for 18 months that's been recalled? Would you believe me if I told you that I did not know until last night. I am new to this board, never been hit before so never really thought of it.
-
Ok so I called Nutty Buddy and spoke to Curtis, my main concern was buying the mongo considering my height. He recommended the Hog, even though I am pass the weight, Anyways hopefully I get mine before my next game. Then I can return the Under Armour one (which was recalled a year and half ago). $20 from UA atleast gets me a shirt.
-
So did you keep the mongo?? can it be worn with the long compression pants. I got hit today wearing one of the under armour, i wanted to die.
-
Gentleman, I have the Under Armour Carbon Cup, I took a hit that had me crying for Christ to come and get me. So much pain. First thing I did when I got home was order the Nutty Buddy. Being 5'8 and 210lbs I ordered the XL (Mongo) hopefully that fits, more importantly can we wear compression pants with these?? Now I need to go out and get a strap. What do you guys think of the nutty buddy, i know there are thread out there but I wanted recent comments.
-
Sounds like Epic Sports, you could get the Wilson bag from Cat-Sports for $100. I am debating on which one I want, its been a month already. Have $80 in amazon gift cards that I am itching to use.

When I first started in 07, I did 91 games, then again I was trying to make money for the honeymoon. In 08 went down to 75, in 09 30 games, and 2010 32 games. However, in 09 & 10 I coached during the summer time which took away weekend tournaments. So far this year 21 high school games. Wont do coaching so may end up with 50. Could do a lot more but with a young family I probably do 2-3 games a week.
-
First game thurs, 3 varsity tourney games on fri, then 3 more vars tourney games on saturday. I expect to be sore on sunday.
