Default Why Do You Buy What You Buy

COACHES,

What factors in the choice of the equipment you buy /

1) Why do you buy certain bases and not others ?

2) Why do you buy certain figures and not others ?

3) Why do you have the size field that you have ?

4) Why do you play the style that you play ?


I for one buy figures according to their look, i just happen to love reggies, itz's, bill porches fig's. I buy for the look where as others may buy for performance or that paticular fig would fit nicely on their team. If i buy fig's due to the look, i want that player on my team, even if it's above the old standard weight. Alot of coaches say that the haiti repro's are the best performing fig's in electric football, i dont like the way they look so i dont want them on my team, that's just my personal pref ! We know reggies fig's are heavier than the haiti repro's. when i said put on the field what you like, both coaches know the weight diff between the 2. If your team is full of haiti's because they perform the best and mine full of reggies because i like the look, why cant we just get it on (WE BOTH KNOW THE WEIGHT DIFF, IT'S NO SECRET) It's just 2 coaches liking different fig's and that's their team. Would'nt you want to coach and try to out perform the reggie figs if you had the haiti's. SO HOW DO WE HAVE THIS GAME ON COMMON GROUND.


BASES- Why do you guy's choose your bases, i like the polo green bases (miggle) because you dont have to do much tweaking, they are pretty decent right off the sprue. "that's just me"

Fields- Why do you play on a regular superbowl field or 620 as opposed to a scale size board, a ff.com 308 board etc etc, vice versa also. I have the 308 and love it, i like the openess (size) to do certain things. I also want a scale size board also. I have a regular miggle superbowl field for praticing. I love watching sweeps develop and it's hard if the board is not wide enough

I WOULD LOVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS !!!!!!!!!!! I WANT TO HEAR FROM SOME WEST COAST COACHES ALSO.
