midmoump 41 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 There have been some problems with the mask, contributing to +POS going out of business. Here is an example discussion: http://forum.officiating.com/baseball/51513-pos-mask.html The new owner of +POS gives his account: http://www.umpire.org/vb/showthread.php?t=6888 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nate 14 Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 A guy I know owns this mask and hates it. It blocks all peripherals and it restricts your views from north to south. It also caused a buddy of mine to have 4 concussions in one summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blindumpire99 11 Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 I used one of these for part of one season and then gave it to a youth league umpire who had "salivated" over the light weight... I actually felt bad later for doing it.....But he never complained about taking any youth league shots to it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mstaylor 1,512 Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 I used it for several years with no ill effects. Yes, the vision is less than good but I am less than convinced it led to concussions if worn properly. I took an 85 MPH shot dead in the mask, it popped up and out and fell at my feet. Four concussions in a season meant he was coming back too fast. JMO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
