    Pump with pressure gage.

    Does anyone have a suggestion of a pump that has a pressure gage?

    I don't know of any pumps except for bicycle type pumps that have a pressure gauge built in. The gauges in those pumps are really inaccurate anyway.

    Your best bet is to learn by feel as to how much air you want in the bag. You want just enough to take the creases out of the deflated bag, but enough to get a decent rebound. More is not better, besides, I've noticed the exterior finish on my bag's leather is aging and cracking prematurely on bags that I have overinflated in the past.

        i work at a local sports authority and they do make hand pumps with a gauge that goes to 6 psi. i think most bags require 4 psi. i think its more of a feel thing more than anything, just dont over inflate. i think the hand pump could be used as a guide line.
