    Lopsided Bag?

    Okay so I just got back from being gone all weekend to find that my package from Title Boxing finally came in the mail. So of course being super excited I fill up my new Title Gyro bag to discover it looks a bit lopsided. This is my first bag so I don't know how it's supposed to rebound. What should I do?

    should be fine with that u-bolt swivel. hard for any bag to have anything other than straight rebounds with swivel like that.

      I already pre-ordered the Powermill swivel... will I still have a problem?

        Ususally a bag with a little list to it will straighten out after being pounded on for a while. Like riqal said work it now with with the U swival before switching to the Powermill.

          That's actually pretty normal. When the powermill comes in hit it a while and see if it bounces pretty true. Unfortunately it might be a little difficult for a relative new bagger to tell if the actions of the rebound are actually due to the bag shape rather than the swivel or your own mis hits.

          Personally I have that bag myself and love it. One side is a bit higher like this one and It doesn't seem to effect the bag action.

            You guys are awesome, thanks for the feedback. I'll keep on working at it until the new swivel comes and see if there's a difference. Thanks!

              That bag will be fine. Most of mine have some level of lopsidedness. It really doesn't affect it in any noticeable way.

                I've got a couple Titles that looked about like that. I put some leather conditioner on them, and hit them pretty often. This will help straighten it out a little. Being a little lopsided won't affect the rebound. Title is the only bag I've seen like this though. I've never gotten a lopsided Everlast, Ringside, or Cleto.
