    Title Pro Mex 8 X 5

    Well I got a Title Pro Mex 8 X 5 today and at first inspection it is much smaller than the Title yellow 8 X 5 I put it on a chainlink swivel to give it a go and I must say it is FAST...lol...after about a minute I had a good run going triplet and I think this will be a good part of my workout. I currently do 5 three minute rounds on the yellow title 8 X5 traditional triplet, then 5 three minute rounds on the tuf wear 9 X 6 traditional triplet followed by at least 5 three minute rounds of front and back punch combinations as I get better at the combinations I add more. I then put on the bag gloves and do my heavy bag, double end bag shadow box and other boxing work.

        It is also a bit smaller than the yellow 8x5. the Pro Mex 8x5 is about the same size and shape as the Title Classic 8x5.

          Here is a bag comparision. Hope it helps. note the Pro Mex is a bit "rounder" than the title bags.

                    Thanks for posting that up. I may have to get my hands on one of those. I like a lot of Title's stuff.

                      Welcome to the club My wife has imposed a speed bag buying moratorium. Maybe she'll lift it for fathers day!

                      I had a neighbor over in the garage just yesterday , he asks "Do you really need that many speed bags" and I had to answer "umm, not really, but I like to collect them!"

                        Tim, I would have said,

                        "What? What kind of question is that? Us Speed Baggers equate speed bags to rock records. Just when you thought you had enough, you forgot that you do not own the entire collection of Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Van Halen, The Who, Pink FLoyd, The Stones, Aerosmith, Hendrix, The Doors,.....,.....,.... Come on!" haha

                        Great pictures! You have the Everlast American flag bag! I saw that one and thought it looked cool. I didn't get it because I thought it was the exact same one that now comes with the 59.99 platform I bought months ago. It's vinyl right? Is it the same one and they just put the flag on it?
                        BAG ON!

                          Yeah, exactly. It's the same old vinyl bag with a flag printed on it. I got it off the clearance table for $10 or so though , so I couldn't resist!
