I bought the schutt mask (single bar) this year and it is the best. I had a +POS composite before and when I put on the schutt the vision was a lot better. I am sure Larry will post here and tell you how to order one.

That mask is great, one of our fellow board members here sells it.
I can't remember his exact board name but I think it is DNTXUM.
I bought mine from Russ's wife Laura.

This is their website, it is new as they have changed it from what it was.
Russ and Laura offer great service and really quick turnaround time

I've seen the mask, and looked at it, and know a number of folks who use it & love it. If I were in the market for a new mask this year, that's what I'd be getting.

Dave,

Here is the website for Larry, a vendor for Schutt.

http://www.playballsports.net

I too purchased my mask from him last year at the 2004 ASA 18-U Gold nationals. I have enjoyed it very much!

He also had a prototype of the new chest protector that Schutt had designed. When I last talked to him a few months ago, the chest protector was not yet on the market, but may be by now.

Their phone number is (800) 619-6778

Good luck,
Serg

CORRECTION:

The new umpire chest protector is available. It is on the same website I mentioned earlier. It is the one that you can put "ice-packs" in (has pockets).

Rachel and Serg - thanks for the mention. I have plenty of masks, but Schutt is behind on the chest protector. So far, they have only shipped 1 medium chest protector, the other sizes and rest of the mediums will not be shipping until November 5. The mask is wonderful and the new single bar gives an even larger viewing area both up and down and side to side. Call if I can help. (800) 619-6778.

Larry,

Thanks for the update on the chest protector. Please keep me informed on the update to the chest protector. I am sure I will be purchasing one in the beginning of the year (my Christmas present).

Thanks for the help .
I have the cost of the items but need to know the freight costs .
Any ideas of cost for 20 oz from US to NZ .

I can get a mask here in NZ at a cost of $299 NZ which is about$209 US so if the mask and freight is cheaper then a purchase over the net will be done .
