maybe if you tried a modified trapeze that would eliminate the possibility of the top getting flimsy. I do have the same issue with a mizuno gmp70bk. the strip of leather, the 6th 'finger' can get soft and worn down. can't speak for rawlings though. and those first 2 gloves, you broke those in perfectly
Can you do me a favor if you see this? I know this vid is 3 years old but your 1st 2 pro preferreds, do you know the model #s on those? I'm guessing something like PROS303 or 3039-6C? The trapeze I have no idea. I appreciate it if you see this. Thanks and hope your career keeps progressing!
As a catcher and I am on my second pro elite mitt. The best way to break in a glove believe it is to play catch! Who knew? No oil, no belt, no BS! Just play catch.
Big fan Nick! My son and I love watching your videos. I really like that you are a patriotic guy and seem to be a really good person. We wish you all the best and are pulling for your continued success!
Thanks Nick...great advice!....I was wondering if you ever apply any type of conditioner to the leather to keep from drying out or simply to help with breaking in? Good luck with the Missions this season!
Dave Cyphert Hi Dave, Nick here. I personally have never used anything on the leather itself. A lot of the guys I play with don’t either but one of my teammates (River Stevens) made a video showing how to use Vaseline if you want to check that out. Korrin will leave the link for you. Appreciate the comment!
