I have a Reach 3 1/2, one of those lucky eBay finds. No bladder when I got it but it appeared that it had never been used. Put a Title Quik Tek large double end bladder in it. Hits really nice, although I don't put it up on the swivel often.

Mine was an ebay find too but mine was used by the sellers grandpa, it also didn't have a bladder in it but it came with the box, to bad the label on the box was not there, My guess was he couldn't find the correct bladder for it so it was put back in the box, i used an everlast 4232 large bladder for it, it's a fast bag and ready fun to hit, Just like the Draper-Maynard bag i have, it will get hit once in awhile for fun
