I just purchased from **** a used (in very good shape) 1st POG OS model the one with one stripe and without grommets. I believe it is a heavier version of POG in weight but with more headlight points than recent versions.

Anyway, just wanted to share my enthusiasm since it is my first POG and I´m excited to hit with it.

Thank you for reading

Without grommets (1st generation), or with INDIVIDUAL grommets(2nd generation)?

You will notice the handle is kind of short, if you have big hands and use a 2hbh, you may have some trouble.

It is not really heavier than its next generation (the 3rd genration: the 1stripe with bumperguards). I have both and both weights close to 13 oz with original leather. The one in your hand should be slightly more HL and is a pleasure to hit with.

Thank you for your answer. It is the 1st generation, without grommets. I knew the grip was shorter but I use one hand Backhand and usually a L3 grip, so my hands are not big.
Indeed, I can´t wait for this baby to arrive;)

I think they are selling very cheap. I bought mine for 39€ which I believe, even if in very good conditions, was kind of expensive but since they are so hard to find in Europe it was worthed for me.
