I have also switched to the GD System. (it’s not just a stance)

Getting hit in the cage is the last thing I worry about, and actually hope for it I have to get hit, because I wear a helmet. Getting hit on the button is kind of like having a mosquito land on your nose.

But man are your hands, forearms and inner thighs exposed !

I have not been hit YET, but balls have been whizzing by in places they never used to. I am going to stick with it until I get beat up so bad I can’t stand still. I’m finishing up HS playoffs this week and next, where I rarely get hit anyway, and also finished up the BR 13 YRO PREP leagues this week. PREP was not a problem because they don’t throw hard. This week I start BR 14 – 15 YRO Juniors and 16 – 18 YRO Seniors. The seniors aren’t a big deal because it is basically HS Varsity, best of the best. The juniors have me a bit worried because the pitchers can throw hard and the catchers aren’t much better than the 13 YRO’s. This may be it for the GD !

Maybe I could switch to Hockey Goalie gear ?
