I like my K1 - HONIG'S PRO ELITE PROTECTOR, however Friday I took a 90mph foul ball off of my collarbone and it hurt! The impact caused my necklace to cut my skin. I also broke the clasp on my necklace. I have to say that if I had my old protector on it would have broken my collarbone. You can check the K1 out at http://www.honigs.com/browse_products.asp?Cat=2&Sub=36
Do you accessorize your necklace with a hand bag or just your ball bag?

Wearing a necklace while umpiring? Good grief.

As I posted to Mr. Houston, I neither saw referenced in any post nor thought of a medical necklace. I have apologized for my error. Feel free to pile on though, I have it coming.
My apologies, too. You could've mentioned that it was a medical alert bracelet -- I have seen umpires wear Mr. T starter kits on the field....and I didn't put the name together with that of one of Carl's new writers.

(Of course, that doesn't mean anything. Carl will let anyone write for him )

Why do I have to tell everybody that I wear Medical necklace? I agree that jewelry should not adorn an offical while he is working. I wear a black sports watch. Most of the schools we have in our chapter do not have lights and due to saftey reason we must know when the sun sets and set a time limit on the game. Have a good evening!

I don't live in a state with a lot of time limits anymore, but when I did the watch was in my back pocket or in the ballbag. I think a watch looks horrible on an umpire's wrist, but I recognize this is a regional thing.
