The Proline rookie strong bases are having some quality issues right now. You want to find first run bases of this type. The current crop they are offering are not good. The first runs are really nice.

I like the orange, yellow and polo green TTCs, they are good, tweak pretty easy and can be surprisingly fast. If you wish to get good strength out of the TTCs, toss the white dial out in favor of Proline strong dials then tweak for brute strength.

The repro frosty rookies are pretty darn fast, as well as the polo green rookies.

I could go on and on, these are a few "go to" bases for me, I will let someone else chime in and give their opinion.

Make sure you let some other guys answer, don't rush to order based on just one opinion.

Let's see what the other coaches say first.

Your in good hands here, you will not be sent in the wrong direction.

Hi durham football,

Greetings to you my friend. I hope you are doing well.

No do NOT get the Patriotic ones. As Shabby J said your best bet would be to get the 2004 Polo Green, Orange, and Teal Bases. My favorites are the Polo Green next would be the Orange. If nothing else leave the Patriotic bases alone. Hope this helps.

Coach J

I own some of the Patriotic bases and I was not impressed. Then I aksed one of the better tweakers in the hobby and he also verified what I experienced in that they were not that good. A few years ago I purchased some of the Polo Green bases and some of them had great speed right out of the box WITHOUT being tweaked. I also had one of the better tweakers in the hobby to tweak some of the polo green and teal TTC bases for strength and was pleased with the results. I would give the nod to the polo green bases. Hope this helps.

Coach J
