This will probably start something, but honest to God, the sign of a smitty around here is a hockey stye helmet.
For some reason, the higher level umpires locally eschew them, but the raw newbies and smitties love them.
As time goes by and the some of the newbies learn the craft and move up, this will change, I'm sure. But as of now, scratch a PU with a HSM and you'll find a BU with ball bags.
