The original Pro Gold Infield Mix of the West Coast. Don't be fooled by a knock off infield mix. Gail's Pro Gold Infield Mix is used by more professional and college facilities than any other available material in Southern California. Gail's Pro Gold is also the number one supplier for the local high schools and city ball fields. Our material is finely screened at a 1.8 mil minus. Silt plus clay content falls within ASTM standards however if desired, we can custom blend additional clay for those field managers that want a stiffer infield mix. The color is deep reddish brown and offers great ball contrast. Our standard mix is stabilized with our exclusive natural organic binder Natricil™. Stabilization offers benefit is moisture control by absorbing excess moisture during periods of heavy rain and reducing rainouts or by contrast, Natricil™ holds onto water on hot and dry days and reduces dust and bad hops.
