2010 bowman chrome or bowman draft??? Which is a better pick

[bscook86]

Im looking to do a little busting. not looking for anything in particular, just to have a little fun. i like the refractors from these products as most of us do. however, i am the furthest thing from a prospector that is possible. Im just looking for some fun colorful pulls. any input?

making money back on boxes is always the best way to bust a box, im just trying to figure out which box would be the more solid pick... thanks

Bowman Draft is a much better pick hands down.
It has a better prospect crop, and some of the top picks autos from the 2010 Draft.
The boxes usually yield about 2-3 refractors each, odd wise.

Also Bowman Chrome was over produced so the odds to pull a refractor are lesser than that of Draft.

Oh ok cool. Do the draft fall one auto per box as well? Also does draft have the aflac autos? USA autos?

 

[mancini79]

You want Draft. One auto/box. Also have USA sticker autos and Aflac autos. So some boxes contain two autos.

or three autos

im sure 3 autos is a pretty rare thing to see in a draft box though, right?

go with bowman sterling, you could get 2 packs for around $83

every pack is loaded

EVERY 5-CARD PACK DELIVERS:
- 2 Autograph Cards
- NEW! 1 Team USA Star Autograph Relic or Relic Card
- 1 Rookie Card
- 1 MLB Future Star Card


lots of color, gold/ black/ purple/ red refractors

BC has been good to me... supplying me with a handful of gold and purple refractors, and I love the 18u cards, but I would say stick with Draft... MUCH better player selection.

the bad thing about sterling, at least in the past. that for every good card there seems to be 10 or so worthless cards. i havent had very good luck with it. except one pack i pulled the jason heyward auto refractor. that wasnt too bad. i might try a box just for the heck of it though.

it seems that most people lean towards draft. who is in draft that makes it such a better decision? doesnt 2010 bc have stras auto redemptions?

i think it depends on how much you want to spend. at my LCS, chrome is half the price of draft but in my opinion, you have a higher chance of getting better prospects out of draft. not a big fan of sterling but to each their own. i personally like getting more base cards out of chrome and draft which increases the odds of getting a nice refractor parallel.

Draft is more, but definitely worth it. BC may be a $30 box in the not-too-far-off future. And maybe still iffy at that price.

 

[bscook86]

so is it safe to say i should snag a case of this stuff?
