The GD vest pictured looks like a lot of foam. Is that true, and how does it protect compared to the shells like the West Vest? Pain I can deal with; injury I really can't.

For HS ball, don't skimp on the mask and chest protector. You are dealing with a missle coming at you at +70 mph (almost double that if you take a direct foul ball). I recommend only a hard shell chest protector (I use a West Vest Platinum) and a metal mask.
