Never tried a face shield, myself, but I've banged my gloves into my sparring partner's before. I think they ended up frustrated with them and detaching it before long, but I'm interested to hear about your experience with it.

Zero: $55 a month
Centaur: Thanks, and yes, that is the model I got
Brandon: I hate headgear, period. I know I'm going to hate this headgear just as much, and probably more, than my standard headgear.
Still, its very hard to train elbows or anything approximating 50%+ w/ MMA gloves during the last couple weeks before a fight without a face shield, and our gym owner is once again dragging his feet getting us the gear we need.

can we just note that you were hockey fighting at at 6 or 7? i would do anything to avoid a fight in a game because you couldn't really hurt the person and some ahole would always come barreling in swinging his stick around like he was conan the barbarian.

Hockey stick fighting has got to be similar to Scythe fighting. Grip it so the blade is low and forward; one hand center, the other 2/3rd from the end. Jab with the blunt end and sweep the legs/ ankles with the inside of the blade. Jab the throat of the fallen.

And ya, I was 6 or 7, but I liked to fight then. I fought one of my own teammates once for not passing me the puck.

My parents took me out and put me in martial arts classes.
