backup ball gloves

[soonerfan1966]

does anyone in the know have an opinion on the ls omaha pro ball glove or the nike mvp prospect ball glove. academy has them on sale for $39 and the granddaughter needs a backup as she is currently using her fathers high school glove(12in mizuno). second year 8u age group.

not familiar with those. we keep a A800 in the bag as a backup to her A2000. in the 200-300 price range there are many good gloves, imho, not soo much in the lower price range, hard to beat the A800.

Omaha Pro -Currently a primary glove for my kiddo.
For the money (under $50 on sale) I'd buy again and again. When she moves up to a 12" ball I'll buy her any glove she wants although I'd hope she just uses a basically new Rawlings we have laying around.
The Rawlings glove while bigger weighs about 50% more. She says its heavy and it is compared to the OP glove being used.

The Jenny Finch glove is in this price range and DD used it as her primary glove. It is pink though.

new Rawlings we have laying around.

Need to ask, why do you have new gloves laying around?

I love nice things a collector of sorts. I still have several gloves I'd like to add to my collection (rawlings prmo series). I like my whiskey collection and cigars.
