Awesome. The kid just gets gifted an A2000 for being in the right place at the right time.
@CloranM
That Rawlings is an AWESOME glove for kids… the notch REALLY helps. It’s not made for adults.
@tylerjb3
Played catcher since I can remember. I’m not sure how it is now but the all star pro elite was hands down the best glove I ever used behind the dish.

As a catcher the only glove that comes with a deep pocket brand new are Japanese catchers mitts all other brands you have to deepen the pocket on your on by break in and just pure use of the mitt

I’v used the renegade during two season. I was 13 and 14. And it worked perfectly for me. Hardest pitch I caught was like 70 mph though.

My two gamers for college are my old Easton Flagship, had it for 4 years now, still rocking, then my “backup” is the Easton Professional Kip, still debating which I’ll end up gaming, but both were under $200 and blow away any Rawlings or Wilson mitt I’ve used
@KnuxCardDad
Excellent premise. If you can dig up a NOS Rawlings with the metal eyelets. My 8 year old used a crap a360 this past year. He has a nokona, and I bought a NOS $23 piazza 32 for him, and there is nothing like those late 90’s Rawlings mitts. Built like tanks.

I have a 34 inch under armour catchers glove and i love that thing. Super durable feels great and was an easy break in, aswell as being only 200 australian dollars(not sure what that is in usd)

I just bought my 8 year, old, a 2nd year player the cheaper Rawlings glove you started with. I gave it to him for Christmas today. I thought it was excellent when trying it in the store. It was easy enough to close and I knew we could break it in easy. I played catch with him for two hours today. I used the new catchers mitt to expedite break in because my hand is stronger. The pop on it was amazing at times! I mean, I felt the "pop" in my soul....so clean. Loved it. I was feeling bad during your review that I made the wrong decision. However, I think it will work for us for at least one season. However, one fact I took from this was that I shouldn't try and break it in too much that it becomes floppy. Thanks for your review.

Picked up this Rawlings renegade for my son (8) after watching this video and couldn't be happier with it. Great first catcher's mitt for him that we gave a box break in with the Ball Glove King method. Thanks!

Hola! Disfruto y aprendo mucho viendo sus videos, me alegro y emociono escucharlo hablar español, hace unos meses comencé con mi propia marca de guantes de béisbol para jóvenes en Puerto Rico, y seguido imagino con mucho entusiasmo que algún día usted tenga en sus videos mi guantes, sería genial
@kevinkennett7474
The $60 glive, passed your test, but it seems you were determined to not like it. It wasnt falling apart, it surprised you, so you tossed it.
@Vexvex28
13:25 at this part the ball he caught went into the other glove
@Sl33pyOnVr
GREAT VIDEO! For the budget gloves, could you please try the Wilson A500. I am a 13u AA catcher and it was 120$ (I think). I have it broke in with a box break in. If you need I can send a picture or video of the glove. I think you could be impressed by this glove. Thanks for being such a great guy!
@caseysorensen6562
i got a 44 c2 with code for $140 its was still and very well made. I think it would have came in second behind the A2000
@STLG8GT
BGK - gotta tell you, after your gamer xle review for the IF glove, we bought one, and the red/black gamer xle catchers mitt (different colorway, same mitt). Noticed the same performance as you, felt great quality but a shallow pocket and a lot of pop outs. Breaking it in has helped. BUT a HUGE problem - the soft side of the velcro failed before it ever saw game use! Now, i warned my 13yo about NOT pulling and placing the strap alot to avoid wear, and he really left it alone. Didnt matter, the soft side is CHEAP and THIN. I ended up stitching in a replacement panel on a four month old glove. So disappointed. I think this is a deal breaker for an otherwise quality mitt.

My dad used to catch, he’s is obsessed with catchers mitts. I have a Wilson 360, and a team nokona. But he gets old gloves off eBay that are like brand new, maybe just have sharpie on it. I got a terry steinbach wilson I am moving to now. But we are breaking in a rcm 32.5 Piazza that was new old stock too. Wilson’s pockets aren’t as deep as Rawlings. But they’re a lot more broken in when new. The Rawlings takes real work. The Wilson’s take 15 mins.
