Medium Heater Punch Shield (23″x 27″ Mini Heater)

Medium Heater Punch Shield – miniheater – 23″x27″ all foam punch shield for dagorhir, belegarth, amtgard – lightweight foam fighting sports equipment.  Bored with round?  Try Square.  Want to throw crazy shots?  Try Heater.  The missing bottom corners increase mobility.  While this is my favorite back shield shape, it’s not a bad punch shield by itself.  Please note, We recommend the 27-in round as the most universal punch shield.  The 24-in round is more economical.  This shape rocks it as a back shield with great shoulder protection.  The medium heater punch is absolutely the most popular shield to add a tarzan upgrade too!!!  Shop Medium Heater Punch TARZAN shields here.

Why fight with a Mini Heater Punch?

According to Lady G, it’s the best big size for a small guy.  However, Collister of the Spar Me Bros is a big strong guy that does good work with this medium shield.  Collister was so excited about the miniheater punch that he bragged to his buddies about his new custom shield.  Lady G was so sad to tell him the custom shield is actually an underappreciated stock foam shield!!!

Why you shouldn’t fight with a MINIHEATER Punch…

The Gorg crew has a lot of respect for knights and squires alike.  This being said, we understand that the heater shield is often used as a symbol of knighthood.  Most squires are not encouraged to use this classic heater shape until knighthood is achieved.  Rarely are knights upset when normal fighters use this shape shield.  However, many foam-fighters opt to save this shape for knight’s that earned its symbolic respect.
