Thoughs on comparison of 6ft Champro or the 6ft Golme goals. Circular vs. rectangle? U5 now but want them to last. Looking for any feedback?

These Golme goals are not six feet. They are the smaller pop up type of goals. Doubt you'd want to be carting around 6 ft goals in your car. These have held up well for my u10 team.

I have the 4 ft Golme goals and I love them! I coach a U6 team and use them in my backyard often. The kids hang on them and they are holding up very well! They are rounded which is less goal area but they pretty much dribble the ball into goal or "pass" it in so the top corners aren't necessary. Good luck!

I have the T3000 coin op and the Warrior so I can do a direct compare between the two from a Warrior vs Tornado perspective. The Warrior does have counter-balanced men. The table as a whole plays well. The big difference being that the Warrior plays much slower than a Tornado (or in this case the T3000 since that is what I'm familiar with). Of course I'm sure you're aware the ball the Warrior uses is much tackier. I spend about 90% of my time on the Tornado and when I do get on the Warrior, my ball control is leaps and bounds better. The walls on the Warrior also don't seem to be as responsive as on the Tornado ie, when bouncing the ball off of them. Not sure if its the walls or the ball. Overall, the Warrior is good table for the price pt. However, you can also find good used Tornado coin-ops (craigs list) for the same if not less. Surprisingly enough, the Warrior is actually a pretty sturdy table for what it weighs. Rods are nice, grips are practically identical to those on the T3 (just different colors). Playing field is good. I would suggest however that if you plan on playing in local tournaments, or even just out and about and want to be competitive, to look into a descent used Tornado coin-op. If just looking for a home table for friends and family to have fun on, the Warrior will serve that purpose without a doubt. (Edit) Occasionally, balls will get stuck in the goal box on the Warrior. You can just reach in and grab them or knock em around a little til they go down the ball return tube. Also the back plating inside the goals is LOUD!

I wear size 7, it is not too small, any larger would be EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to balance. Personally, I feel it is better to save up your moey and get a Bosun Ball, that is a dome on one side and fla on the other side, it is much easier to use and learn.

Hi Mindy, Unfortunately I do not have access to the UPC, however it is similar to the GW0401, however I believe that style is for a 60 degree with a 10 bounce, this will be a 60 degree with a 6 bounce. Thank You,

No, it should work with most other brand goals as long as it is the correct size. (We have a Franklin goal.) The side panels attach with small bungee cords, so as long as you can get them around the posts on the goal you should be ok. The top panel laces on so there is no issue here.

Definitely go with the larger version. We have two and it will last for a while.

definetly an intuos product than graphire or bamboo. 6x8 should be fine and i would highly suggest getting the special edition available on amazon. Some people argued that 6x11 was far better than 6x8 for some reason. Since intuos special edition 6x8 and 6x11 costs the same on amazon ($369), perhaps it would be better to get the 6x11. but that's up to you Summary: 6x8 = for easier portability and ideal for limited desk space 6x11= more accuracy when drawing circles (according to many 6x11 reviews), wider surface to trace art work on, but takes a chunk out of desk space. smaller than 6x8 just don't cut it for professionals, bigger than 6x8 maybe just too big unless you have the desk space to accomodate it. hope this helps!

It depends on your skill level. I have a few different sizes and like utilizing different sizes for different techniques or various drills to develope different attributes. Bigger bags are slower and are better for burning out the shoulders. Smaller bags require more finesse and more speed, but might not give you the same type of workout. I like to start small and as I start to fatigue I switch to a larger bag to finish out my shoulders. I also prefer rubber bladders over vinyl. They're more durable and retain air pressure better in the cold. Less refilling them, but they're heavier. Which you don't want in your faster bags. Just my thoughts on it. My absolute favorites are the title bags, the red classic and the yellow. I have a couple everlasts and they're good but I love the red classic, I think I went with the five, but I'll spend 7 hours or so out in the garage hitting on a good night. Anyway I hope this helps.

Go with the bigger size. 5x5 to small. My daughter hits into almost every night. 7 x 7 better choice. It only take a few minutes to set up.

I use the 4-foot goals for 5-7 year old kids. This is a good size for all ages...all the way through college.

I think that would depend on your skill level. The goal comes out of the bag, according to the set-up instructions, and unfolds. I have used the 3x5 goals and the instructions are the same. There is a hinge at each rear corner and one in the center. My guess that the only option you would have would be to take out the center hinge point and shorten each of the bottom back cross pieces and shorten them 2", drill them out and bolt them back in place. You would void your warranty for sure, the net would not be as tight as it should be...and I would guess that the results will not be optimal. Your choice.

I would suggest a 6 by 9. I will venture to guess you may be upgrading a starter everyday bag and crave more speed. Even if this is your first bag the 6 by 9 will not be a tiny peanut bag by any standards. Still, if you are getting a nice bag, spend the money on a nice ball bearing swivel. The swivel will make a drastic difference. Avoid the plastic ball and socket swivels, they will ruin your experience. It will be a fast learning curve and the bag will allow you to become quite fast while having the size to give good resistance. Good luck.

Marshall, go with the bigger one. The kids love our parachute and we have found so many fun uses for it. But as they have grown I find myself wishing I had gone with the larger one. It's worth the extra investment.

Daniel, these goals are located at our camp and I am not there at present so I can't give you a height. They are fairly portable...very heavy especially on any incline (we use them on a flat outdoor pavilion) and not the best turning radius. Fantastic goals!

Get 6.5. It can always be cut down. Also make sure you get the right width.

Perfect for a full size goal. Excellent purchase. Great deal and very good quality. We are using it at a High School and at weekend recreational league.

I have to agree with the other response. I originally bought a 9x12 but it was a monster. Gave it to my dad, bought the 6x8, never looked back.
