Your PRO-T is nice, what my 17 year old daughter uses. That's a compliment.

I'm drooling on my keyboard looking at that pro t. I've been on an outfield glove kick lately.

How big is that Pro T? I have one that Doc said should be 12.75" (1990) but it seems a little smaller. I have the HOH lining on mine. What do you prefer. I can't decide but think that HOH holds up to sweat a little better. I have a Pro 2 from 1985 that has the SofTan lining and it is really soft but extremely dark.

Nice pickups!

I have the PRO-TB which has held up great. And other than the leather softning up the leather has held up great. I just had it relaced last year. The lining is also HOH and there is no sign of cracking or drying at all. I did always keep it pretty well cleaned up.

I would say its a 12.75 for sure. I like the hoh linings, most of the gloves i have have the deer tanned. they crack, i try to wear a batting glove to save some of the sweat from getting on the liner and cracking it and stuff.
thanks

Here are a couple of pictures of my PRO-TB. My USA HOH seems a little smaller compared to the newer 12 3/4 Pro Preferred models I have but I have used it for baseball as well as softball for years. I do remember when I bought it I thought it would never break in. It was hard as a rock and even after using mink oil on it a few times and using it for catch and games I was still woried using it in a game that due the fact that it was so damn hard it would cause a miscue but thankfully that was never an issue and once it was broken in it was like an extesion of my hand. These new gloves including the Morton Horween HOH models take no where near the time of the old USA HOH gloves and my HOH palm area still thankfully has not started to crack even after all these years.

I would any of them. But you will have to take an offer at a discount for me to get my hands on one of them.

My PRO-T (made in USA) is absolutely smaller than my Morton PRO-24 (and 2 ounces lighter), but the PRO-T is larger than my TG-12. The PRO-T is also smaller than a black Trapeze HOH glove I have, but I bought that one used and never could make out its model number.

I don't know if it is Tanners lace or not I had the glove relaced by Rawlings last year. I had never relaced a trap before and this was my gamer at the time and I didn't want to take a chance screwing it up.
