EVERYBODY seems to have a different opinion but here is mine.

I switched to the hockey helmet 2 years ago and I LOVE it!!

It is a Rawlings Cool-Flo that the college players use and is very light and has slots in the top of it to keep it cooler in the summer. I had a HS foul pitch knock my sturdy mask all the way around so I was looking out what would have been the earhole and I switched to the hockey helmet.

I have taken several, several foul balls off the top, side and front of the hockey mask and I never feel a thing. It's amazing how the coaches come out and the catcher stands up and turns around sometimes when I take it flush in the mask and it makes a loud BANG but I don't feel a thing.
