A used board from somebody reputable is ideal.

Another thought is building your own board.

I know how you feel, when I received my miggle board a couple of Xmas ago I was disappointed to say the least. I wish I had my Cowboy Rams 620 from 1971.

Were it me, I would keep the Miggle 620, you can work on it in your spare time and get it playable. I would not buy the Rosebowl board (you must be a glutton for punishment).

I would spend the money and get a real deal vintage 620 from a well known coach on this forum or hit ebay and pick one up.

Default you could do something like this...

...you could pickup a vintage 620 from me (pm if you want one) I have several of them including the one Crusader talked about.

I also have the same 660 and just recently pulled it off the shelf and used it for tweaking some bases. Still runs great. I am not a big fan of the miggle 620 and they are not quite made the same as the original boards.

If you have never played on a large field, you might check into obtaining one of them.

Rose Bowl field is smaller than the 620, right??

Thanks for the help guys! I'm leaning towards getting a vintage board to either keep for myself or give to my friend.

I have a Rose Bowl board & it is great. I also have a Miggle 620 & mine is not bad at all.

I found it intersting that when I emailed Miggle about the unacceptable quality of my new 620 Christmas present, they never responded.

I'm glad to hear that! You think its worth taking the risk to get a Rose Bowl?
