Just when I think I'm out, they puuuull me back in!
Appears to be a very long loop on that bag, but still might have to bite the bullet.

Perhaps I should learn to differentiate between wanting a Blue speed bag and wanting a Title Big Blue speed bag.Certifiable SBX Attendee 2019

The issue has become that this is now the only what we call an extra large striking bag on the market now, since Genesport has gone out of business, other than some custom made bags. It's principle drawback is that it was designed to be used on a 24 inch platform. It is short and squat, and doesn't respond like the old school bags. Large striking bags that required a minimum 30" platform were made by most of the major suppliers up through the late 1960's into the 1970's. By the 1980's Spalding, McGregor and Wilson were no longer making them, and Sears had switched from leather bags to pleather, and then vinyl. Hutchinson Bros. Leather Co. AKA Hutch had also ceased production as well(their smallest bags were closer to what Everlast and Tufwear were selling as medium size). Of the more recent products, I've found the TufWear S109 (10x14) to give you the best workout. These were made up through the 1980's. It also appears to be relatively rare now. Like most of the old line made in Nebraska it takes a lot to keep it moving (this was true regardless of the size of the bag, they were all made with very heavy leather). The line was briefly resurrected by Title, but it appears that the name is being used by a firm in Great Britain now.
