Weight 3.2,4.0 or unlimited, which do u prefer?
 

Hey my EF/MF brethren
I have been blessed to be exposed to a few things in the hobby as far as figure weight goes, in the first brawl 3.2 was the rule I had fun getting in there and rumbling. When I went to Texas I was exposed to 4.0 and the advantages at playing at that weight, ive dabbled in Anthony Burgess's MPFL style when he first put the system together so I understand the advantages of playing at the unlimited weight, The most astonishing though was my man Bret Johnson my hometown brother who when playing with his good buddy Herb Smith use House Paint dipped players bulked up beyond belief, with bases that could push a Sherman Tank, the question guys is what weight works for you?

Well
 

I have been preparing for the BAM @4.0 and i love the consistency of the ride along the board by my guys. i havent noticed a change in strength of one base to another, speaking ofcourse, pound for pound. i havent found it difficult to get the weight up either. NOW, i have yet to actually play someone else at this weight, but so far, i like this much better than 3.2.
just my take.
i remember this question from the miggle board, so to quote my man Shabby J "Hold on to your hats, this is about to get good:) ".





ps- but i am glad BigLock that you posted this. it will be very interesting to see the public opinion this time around as oppossed to the miggle board debate, now that many more coaches have been exposed or experienced 4.0.

4.0
 

4.0 grams

Varied Weights
 

I prefer a range of weights because after I customize, my players vary in weight. I don’t shave or hollow out any of my players. I also do not add excessive coats of paint on my players. Whatever the weight of a particular player is after it is complete, that is the weight at which it will play. The heaviest player that I have is 4.0g. The lightest player is 3.0g.

We play 3.5 in the M.O.M.F.L. , and are thinking of raising it to 4.0 for the next season.

I am leaning more and more toward 4.0 as a maximum weight for the simple reason that you can run the board at a higher speed and the men are more stable but I do believe that 3.3 has its place also. I would like to see national standards in place that would have leagues classified into different weigth catagories rather then being all over the board with weigths. Trains have HO, O, N scale. Boxers have different weight brackets. We should to. This is what I would recommend.

3.3 maximum and under
4.0 maximum and under
Unlimited

From playing with both 3.2 and 4.0 I really like them both. Until all tourney are under the 4.0 rule, you need to have both ready. Like I said, like them both but would rather it be 4.0.

Even though I'm not in a league and have yet to play in a tournament I agree with Weirdwolf's idea. In youth football you have different weight classes as well. Guys , think about it . Good idea Weirdwolf !
