Just bought this off of ebay.

I'm not sure whether or not this is what i wanted. It's probably not the high end glove they sell on baseballexp.com, but I'm hoping it's still considered a pro stock glove. doing a google search I can't find it.

Does anyone know if this is equivalent to say a heart of the hide or a gold glove.

ps I'll give a follow up when this arrives at my house.

I just got the glove today as I've been out of town.

Pro's.
-extremely soft leather
-I've owned a lot of gloves but this one has by far the best palm I've ever felt.
-at 11" it's smaller than i would have expected.

Con's
- Not thick at all
- thumb and pinky aren't stiff
- Fingers bend way too easily.

overall I'd give this glove a 7 out of 10. Great pattern, made pretty well, but it may end up being too soft for everyday play.
