I was able to purchase an All-Star CPU28 for a good price. Used it all day today and loved it.
Thanks to all the posters who offered opinions and advice. Anyone interested in purchasing a +POS BB204 "Ultra-Pro" in excellent shape and for a good price, let me know. |
I have the Wilson MLU chest protector and it has been like body armour. I've taken 3 directly to the chest and haven't felt a thing after the fact- maybe a little red mark if anything. It's cheaper than the west vest platinum and offers almost the same protection.
It's a little big, so if you're a smaller guy, it might not feet as nicely on you, but it's still a good buy. http://www.baumssportinggoods.com/it...lson_A3217.jpg Note: Bicep guards are removable (which i do remove mine). |

who was working high school ball with a ribbed Diamond protector. Although the V-Sport has good protection, I don't feel it's nearly as protective as my West Vest Gold. The biggest differences are the thickness of the padding, and the length of your model. |
have used west vest for about 6 years and have always been happy. However, since I have changed to the GD stance and stand more upright and as Tim instructed me, about 3 feet behind the catcher, I wanted alittle more protection in the abdomen area. Just bought the All-Star CPU28Pro. I will use it this Sat for our final baseball tourn. I hope that I like it. Bought it for $109 at bplowestprices.com

You got a great price on that CPU28. I thought I had done well.
I checked out bplowestprices.com, and they are indeed low price. Glad to have that link. |
I use the All-American pro-vest. I love it. Been hit numerous times with it and have got into the habit of bending over and picking up the ball and tossing it back to the pitcher. 90% of the ball I do is at the semi-pro/college level.
I have been hit probably about 20 times in the year that I have had it and have never once even taken a step back to collect myself. |
