    Muay Thai bag is great nice to have something that doesn't swing so much. When I kick a 70 pound bag shit starts swinging crazy like.

    Thanks.
    Just don't mount it with Markers.

    Edit to add: answering myself, yes. $100 for a stand IF I can find in state.
    Amazon. Everlast. $115.00. I'll spot you if you can't make that nut.

    I knew that but I don't have any idea what that means as far as Amazon goes.

    I've concluded that DJSapp was never DJSapp, and Not DJSapp is also not DJSapp, so that means he's telling the truth now and he was lying before.

    It means when I add it to the cart and go to checkout it says in nice italic letters:

    "Fuck you. Your prime membership doesn't mean shit, and you should feel happy we even send you books via media mail. And we sure ain't shipping you this thing, not at any price. "

    Or something like that. I'm summarizing.

    I'll check Walmart though, blasphemy as that might be to some of the TGR crowd. They don't seem to hate us as much.

    So, does it dispense the muy thais and I just bring a glass or.... Assume I need my own little umbrella though?

    Even better, it's the 4 y/o's bedroom / combination dojo. Very serious.

    Although at the moment I plan on punching it rather than karate chop, spinjitzu, or going ninjago on it. So not that serious.

    Tips for mounting a punching bag?

    Muay Thai bag is like 6' tall. The bottom usually touches the ground so it doesn't swing much. Low kicks are so satisfying though.
