Does the v3 7500 glove need a pro palm in it or does it already have a pro palm stock

Do you need a pro palm? It's about what you need, not what the glove needs. Do a search, there are million threads about the pros and cons of pro palms.

Let me try again. I like pro palms in my catchers. the stock PII glove was just the right thickness for me and that was 1/2 an inch of padding in palm. What is the thickness of the V3? I am facing top high school and junior A shots. Is the stock V3 glove have enough protection so that i don't get a stinger every other shot?

west, if you go back a few pages in this thread, or even do a search in this thread, there has already been plenty of discussion on the V# glove and pro palms. Please stop being lazy and look a little harder.

Thanks from everyone on this board.

PS - I'm trying to help you and save you from the jackals who will tear you apart for asking this question.

goats, thanks. i didn't know that there was a search bar at the bottom of the page. lol.

[Goats34]

no prob west. Thanks for learning!

And as a reward, I'll give you this... pro palms are entirely personal. Personally, I have the thickest pro palm available on my Brian's Theif - not because I wanted it, but because it's Mike Dunham's old practice glove and I didn't do any research on pro palms before I bought it.

This is what I have found with pro palms - they will always be hard to close. It's the trade-off to not having to deal with stingers.

What you'll read when you do a search is A). NHL goalies use a catcher with a beefed up palm for practice and usually a different stock palm glove for games; B). if you are getting a pile of stingers, your glove hand needs positioning work; and C). you (imagine a finger pointed at you) don't need a pro palm catcher because you (there's that finger again) only play in division X, which sucks compared to me (some jerk wad who thinks he/she is hot poop).

Good luck with your glove hunt. May the Vaughn be with you.
