Okay, I agree with piaa_ump, but another thing about the gear is safety. If you are not a good catcher you don't know how to block properly which the pros do almost every time. Just be honest with yourself for a minute are you pro quality, can you block a ball perfectly almost on command. I have worn a skull and mask during a legion game and i got side wiped on my temple, my mask got thrown off and it hurt real bad. Not ragging on your ability because I have never seen you play, so just take my advice don't even try
