    Bag buying options?

    I'm looking to buy a second bag. I'm currently learning on a Title 7x10 with SwivelTek LTX Ball Hook Swivel

    Here's the three I'm looking at:

    Ringside Invicto 6x9 $59.99 + $6.95 shipping

    Title Boxeo 6x9 $49.99 - free shipping

    Leone 5.5x8.5 $49.99 - free shipping

    Which of the three do you think I'll like best?

    Down the road I'll get the Fighting Sports, or the Title 5x8

    The only thing that I don't like about the Title bag is how far down the laces go.The Ringside bag, well I'm not equipped to discuss it because the last time I bought a Ringside bag was back in the late 1980's. They are obviously different beasts now. As far as the Leone bag, Ralph probably is the best to discuss that

      Some have had premature failure problems with the Leone. I would like to hear from Ralph what bag with a new bladder best imitates the feel of the Leone?

        I ordered the Ringside Invicto (small) for $57.94 delivered.
        That is a great price on that bag! I subscribed to Ringside's mail list to get a 15% discount of $9.00.

        Hope I like it.

          Tell us how it hits and post a video....

          Ringside bags were always pretty fast, even their banana versions.

            My review if the Invicto 6"x 9" speed bag

            I'm very happy with this bag. Quality is excellent. Size and weight seem perfect.

            Actual dimensions are 6"w X 9 1/2" from top of loop to bottom of bag

            I may try other 6x9's, but I can't see myself moving down to anything smaller anytime soon. This is the perfect size imo.

            The bag moves very fast compared to the Title 7"x 10" I'm used to.
            My observation is that because it is a banana type, with a slightly higher belly, the bag strikes the drum with a shorter arc.

            I'm having very good luck with the bag tracking...again compared to the Title. Very easy on the hands too.

            I did trim off a little bit of the air nipple and removed a white tag at the neck.
            The bag does have a smell at first, but is going away now.

            Again, very happy I bought it.
            Onward and upward!

            Later,

            PS. I'm not quite ready for video of me hitting it just yet. Hopefully I will master this one day.
            My bible is on it's way, should be here tomorrow.

              I have to say, I'm having so much fun with this bag!

              It has made all the difference. I'm developing my side punches, front to rear changes and I can keep this one going for long periods.

              Has anyone here hit this bag? Do you like it too?
