I see so much Hockey style helmet hate, I love mine, its pads absorb sweat and maje it feel like I have an AC in there! It protects me better I feel safe in it, I can get up near the catchers shoulder without fearing a harty cut will kill me. Plus it protects from sun burn! I dont get why it hasn't spread quicker, my old staff had 10 guys, 7 used the bucket, 2 used the old mask and one guy used this http://www.anthem-sports.com/Rawlings-Ai2OS-One-Size-YOUTH-Catchers-Helmet_p_610.html Also odd to me is how the bubble still is used, half of my co-workers used it what is the appeal of this old out of date saftey gear? I used a bucket and a CP that is heavy duty armor cant feel a thing, why do so many guys wear old helmets? And why is the bubble ever used?

How does the rawlings compare to the Wilson shock 2.0. That's going for $74 on eBay free shipping.

I'm sorry I don't know I just put the link as the image was similar to what an umpire I was talking about wore, if I were you dont but anything looking like that image, looks like something a bear wrestler uses, even more so when using a bubble protector, looker weird when that ump had the plate, odd gear

YOU'VE SAID WHAT I'VE STRUGGLED TO FOR TWO YEARS NOW.

What that people need to use the bucket, I love my HSM never going back might do a game this week with my backup mask I just bought, just a test drive but my HSM is my primary for the forseeable future
