Recruiter question

If you are going to switch to contacts make sure you do it well before any showcase so that you are used to them---it takes times adapting to them

TRhit

although mine does wear contacts...I remember once he had an eye that was irritated and he had to wear his glasses...

but due to not having worn them..it affected his vision...so he just went with out them...

this happened at his first actual scrimmage (practice ) where his new summer coach was watching the pitchers...so son told coach right up front that he has a little problem...no glasses, and no contacts that day...

son pitched and did great...got himself first in the pitching rotation based on that outing..coach said just imagine what he could do when he can see....

still changing glasses to contacts does take an adjustment...give yourself time like TR said...

and no one asked us about contacts along the way in recruiting ....that is for college info.

Anyone else have any thoughts or stories on this topic?

I am not a coach so I don't exactly know what they are looking for but...why chance it? If you think about the majors hardly any guys have glasses. It just doesn't seem right. Unless it is a financial thing or he hates them, you might think about changing. I wear them and they aren't bad.

Yea, flat out switch. I noticed that when I wore glasses in a game (onl once, never again) My field of vision was messed up because the glasses only correct the vision directly in front of you; not your peripheral. Contacts are natural, and everyone I know says that I look way more confident when I wear contacts because I can actually see, haha.
