Took a

Near direct hit with a racquetball tonight - it’s not unusual to get hit usually in the back during a game but I’ve never been hit in the chest !

it was just below the device ..... makes me wonder if I need some type of little pad to protect it ? 

Anyone know of anything like that ?

Catchers chest protector ???

I did find online a shirt that competive shooters wear to protect against recoil from a gun that could work .

thanks for the suggestion

I puchased protection from vitalbeat.   I have not used it yet but it is specific for those who want to play sports.  seems comfortable enough.   It is a shirt with removable pad(s) to cober the PM

The protection is for us, not the device. It's titanium. I've taken few hard direct hits, most of us have if we are at all active. Me, I would find the protection cumbersome and not worth the trouble. Personal choice.

I was looking at the shirts - the one mentione on here is expensive...I think.... not sure but looks like 98 euros? is that alot?

the shooter shirt I saw is $27 and is made by Evo Shield who I know from baseball protective gear - they make most of those elbow guards MLB hitters wear.... now at $32.99 I see but normally $55

on evoshield.com its called "Mens Protective Recoil Shoulder Guard Shooting Shirt" if someone wants to google it

I would like to try before I buy! And point about being cumbersome is well taken -

I have seen these in person. They were developed by a patient who used to be a member here. They are expensive but extremely well made. However, I was not tempted to get one lol. It would bug me. But if I were to get one, this is the one I'd get.

I have a well tuned pacer. I hardly know I have it. I am 76 year old, hike and camp alone in the desert. I have more energy than I have had in a long time. The only problem is my wife wants to have a knob installed so she can turn the pacer down.
