      mine should be in any day now. just a thought since folks are stocking up on bags. i treat all my bags with http://www.lexol.com/lexol.html. it's not expensive and will prevent cracks especially if you live in the colder climates.

          Cp:XS

          Cp:XS is marked on the more recent of these Xtra Small bags. But can anyone say what the Cp stands for?

                I just ordered one from the full contact store online today. Its a Candian site but ther in stock. I almost got the reyes but they only had 9-6 and claimed the everlast 6-4 was faster. I think I got talked into it. ill probly end up with them both. the everlast will probly hav a longer life span then the cleto. I tried to get a cleto a while back but my dang card was denied. But seeing how happy u guys r with the everlast mabey i made a good choice. I should hav it Wed. or thur.

                    Having seen many Everlast metal ball hooks in varying states of wear, I can say the Watkins will probably wear out over time, but I bet it will take YEARS.

                      Forgot to mention, I have some Everlast ball hooks that are over 4 years old, I've not worn one out yet.

                        ok thats a pretty long life. Not that im concerned about it just was wondering because of all the metal on metal ball action. I think i might hav to get that chainlink swivel. Next cheque of course. I Amost got it instead. but like Iv mention i havnt been impressed with the new chainlinks Iv tried. Has anyone tried those ballhook dish things ? I have one and i really hated it at first because it was so slow. but when i put the grant bag on it just flew. But was crapy for every other bag i have.

                          It takes more effort to go fast on a B/H.... you will likely find that to be the case going from either u-bolt or chain to B/H of any type (metal, cup, or plastic). It's not that the B/H isn't capable of going fast, it just takes more effort I think. The upside is the way it handles side punches much better.

                          At the end of the day, a swivel is just a swivel and they all have their strengths and weaknesses.

                          I've not used the cup style B/H for any huge amount of time but many people say they wear out very, very quickly.
