    bagboy, sorry for hijacking your thread like this. speedbag, so far, so good. I am back home now. Surgeon said the operation went perfectly. I hope to be bagging like mad in a few months, better than ever on the right side (not saying that much, lol)

    Hang in there. It's scary and takes a few days to get bearable. But 4-6 months from now you'll be glad you did.

    I hate it too, dead non-bounce. But I think it might be the synthetic material, not the light weight. My new Bulgarian bag is lighter and larger, and had a ton of bounce.
    You are right, it’s the synthetic material, not the light weight. My Everlast 4200 is very light too and it has a great rebound.

    That was my favorite show as a kid. Always wanted to be a bionic man!

    Your shoulder is going to become better! faster! Stronger than it was before! <-- I got that from the six million dollar man but I say it applies in this case too.

    Didn't they? They call it Boxeo Money Metallic now. I'm sure just as awesome as the orig. Just as versatile. The dogs are gonna love my Boxeo after I put a squeakie inside.

    lol, I hear ya, and I would not buy one either. But I would not give this one up for the world. This was my first speed bag, saved up my allowance money to buy it, I think around '77. I used bag gloves. I think the platform was shittier than the bag, so I didn't notice so much.
    Yep, I had a few old brownie's. Dead as a pancake, but I understand the nostalgia. I'd use if for a non-hitting signature bag if I had them back. Hope your shoulder is doing OK.

    Now I’ve never hit the title black, so I don’t know how they compare. You seem to like the Title bags. PM me if u want to trade or try it out.

    I find it to be heavy and clunky, but admittedly I haven’t hit the small bags much lately. It’s the 8x5 and a tad misshapen but that may be because I haven’t punched it out enough. Of course it comes standard with the dead quick tek....not much bounce at all. It just doesn’t fit my hands. Maybe I’ll appreciate it more as I progress?

Of course it comes standard with the dead quick tek....not much bounce at all. It takes more force than most of my other bags to keep it moving. Just doesn’t fit my hands. Maybe I’ll appreciate it more as I progress? I’d choose one of my $25 Title ‘the Contender’ bags over it any day. It’s ugly, but is the perfect size somewhere between a 9x6 and 8x5. Thin, soft leather, soft welting you can’t feel and it comes standard with the orange bladder.

    I can’t decide if I want to know what you do with that whip?
