    Wilson A2k 1721 vs Wilson A2k David Wright

    Thats interesting. Thank you. I will get all this to her and see what the result is. I am going to wait for her custom HOH to come in and see if that gets her excited about Rawlings. That may help with the infield glove. Thanks all for your contributions to this effort :).

    She is 5'4" with decent size hands for her height I think, she uses TIP. We were at the FSU Monday night camp tonight and I got to ask our amazing starting 3rd Jaysoni Beachum what she used and she uses a DW5, so that was interesting.

    Her Rawlings Liberty with all white basically, has held up well. Not as white as it was when new obviously but zero issue with how it looks now. Just looks white but used :). Has held up well, 2 years old.

    Haha. Well thanks for the try. The snakeskin does not really fade and bleed which is one good thing for that material. I agree. We both like what we put together for the Wilson Top Gun glove but could not really get a similar result for the Rawlings 206. Did you like what we made for the HOH...

    Thank you. Yes. Joe and Bob seem awesome. She will be on Joe’s team and is really looking forward to it. So much so she wants at least one glove to be in their colors :P.

    Wilson A2k 1721 vs Wilson A2k David Wright

    Ok. So. Her new team is Top Gun National. I am including their logo. Its Navy, Orange and White. So for one of her new gloves she wanted to go with those colors. We went with reddish browns for her catchers mitt. Will send a pic of that as well. Will also send a pic of the Wilson custom catching...

    I will send a pic of what we were looking at in the Wilson color scheme wise later. Will also send a pic of what we ordered for the catching mitt. Yeah would love to see what you came up with. Awesome!

    Also if consensus was the DW5 or 1721 was basically the same as a Rawlings 206 pattern, which I know was kinda said, then it might have been easier to pull the trigger on that. Instead everyone kinda seems to like the 206 a littel or a lot better than the DW5/1721 so it makes me want to convince...

    Wilson A2k 1721 vs Wilson A2k David Wright

    Haha. Yes same. My daughter does not like tan. We were on Wilson because she like the colored custom builds, the way they look, much better than Rawlings. You cant even tell diff between navy blue and black on rawlings custom builder. So its a matter of getting my daughter to agree to a Rawlings...

    Wilson A2k 1721 vs Wilson A2k David Wright

    Agreed. I just have to get my daughter to agree.

    Wilson A2k 1721 vs Wilson A2k David Wright

    Yes. A very good breakdown. I think I will wait for her to get the new HOH custom catching mitt then see if she loves that get her to make a HOH 206 since it seems most agree that is the best glove for this purpose. Thanks for all the input though. The catching mitt was easy, this infielding...

    LOL Right? They do look so much better.

    Wilson A2k 1721 vs Wilson A2k David Wright

    Thank you for your input. Yeah for 3rd we were trying to find something 12" with a H web. The Rawlings 206 would be a great example but we were looking for a Wilson version of that. It's my understanding a H web will be cushier and deeper for back hands and such than an I web would be. If she...

    Thank you. Once we figure out A2000 vs. A2K and the pattern I will message you if thats ok and see what you can offer. Sounds great. I think the custom 2000 was $400 and the A2K was $580 :(.

    Wilson A2k 1721 vs Wilson A2k David Wright

    Just because all her infield gloves have been Wilson. Sentimentality mostly I guess you would say. She also likes how the Wilson customs look better than the Rawlings. What you can control color wise and the availability of colors. She also likes the snakeskin synthetic for the back and how it...

    My first post here. I have been lurking and taking advantage of you guys knowledge for years though :). I know this thread is from 2020 but I am about to custom order my DD a 3rd base glove. She just started high school. Its between the A2000 DW5 or the A2K DW5 or A2K 1721. Have you guys figured...
