    Go to Vaughn's website and they have an article on their site that will explain the proper way to bake your trapper. I did this with my V3 and it was perfect. You can do it very easily with the oven in your house. Also like others have said...if your just sitting around the house watching TV...toss it on and open and close it while throwing a softball into it. I also like running the pocket under boiling hot water as well before I toss the ball into it...it helps form the pocket better. I'll also do this same procedure when I'm done for the night as well, but I'll leave the ball in it and wrap it with a skate lace nice and tight. One more further point...I'll only use the trapper in warm-ups until she is good and ready to go. Have your teammates shoot only at your glove for a while too.

    I just got a new Zero G trap yesterday. Had it on my hand for about 5 hours and it seems to be breaking in nice. Tied it up over night and going to use it in shinny here this morning. We'll see how i goes, sore hand by the end methinks.
    Well, I'd rather have em playin with their toys than playin with themselves

    Yeah, those Zero G trappers are pretty easy to break in...

    I don't think you are supposed to use glove oil on goalie stuff... I'm not sure though. I just squeezed my glove while I was watching tv about a MILLION times. Also, I put them in the opposite corner of the shower with me for like 2 weeks. My glove is getting really well broken in for my tastes.
