Hello everyone,
New member here doing the required anti-spammer post.
I used to have a cheap speed bag 20 years ago. I used it a lot back then, so much that I broke the drum on it and had to make a new one. I decided recently that I wanted to get back into it, so here I am. I just bought an Everlast adjustable. I went the low cost route for now to make sure that I will be doing this on a consistent basis. Maybe if I do this a lot, I will upgrade to a higher end unit. I felt that the wood mounts that came with the kit would not be up to the task of holding this unit up with 30-40 pounds of sand on top. So I went to Home Depot and bought some nice oak and made my own mounting points. I bought a larger bag for now and hope that I can move up to a smaller one if and as my skills return. So far I have read a lot on this forum and know that all of this information is going to help me really up my game on the speed bag.
