These are the four bags I hit regularly: (Measurements are mine, not mfg, and not including the height of the loop)
1. Jim Bradley 12" by 9"
2. Everlast 4200 8" by 7"
3. Jim Bradley 9" by 6.5"
4. Lonsdale Peanut 8.5" by 5.5"
The big Jim Bradley is a cannon. Like hitting a watermelon. Fun sometimes but I don't use it much anymore. The fat little Everlast is nice to hit. It's soft but kind of wobbly and it doesn't always have a consistent rebound. The red Jim Bradley was my favorite until I got the Peanut. The leather and craftsmanship on it is beautiful and it's soft on the hands. But it always felt kind of light to me. Now I'm into the Peanut. It was tricky for the first few minutes but now I love the speed of it. Always nice consistent rebounds, and goes as fast as I can hit it. I thought the narrowness might be a problem but now I like it better than the more pear-shaped bags. I've never tried to hit a smaller bag, but now I might go for one. Any suggestions?
