That's really impressive fingers! Would you say it moves quicker than the Everlast plastic ball hook? Lucky find to get such a perfect fit<)Y

Great skills on the bag too!


By the way, are you taking any orders on the doorknob hook??? Me first!:D:D

Great sounding swiv Fingers. Is that knob smaller than the plastic ball or is it about the same size?

Great sounding swiv Fingers. Is that knob smaller than the plastic ball or is it about the same size?Thanks Baggist! i think it may be a fraction bigger than the plastic ball it mesures 25mm it is a nice fit in the plastic housing not too much free play i just put a smear of silicone grease now and again! ive been using it for a few weeks and it just gets better as it wears in.:D

I'm always impressed by how much my equipment improves the more I practice ;) . I think you're getting into the groove of the ball hook as well.

Great Job Bro (on baggin' and the swiv modification). You don't seem to have any problems with the ball hook. As you can tell, the great thing about it, is being able to hit from "any" angle and get a true rebound. You have to hit the bag square and in the sweet spot to really control it. With the ball/hook, the bag never lies! Haha!
Anyway, Great Vid!

True. Moving to a ball -hook won't do wonder for your ego, but it will make you a better bagger.

I'm sure you won't have any problems! Great thing about baggin', you'll never know too much or get too good. So you'll never get bored or get to a point where you can't improve! I think I'll go hit the bag! Take it cool Fingers.
