    I agree. I feel the BOB is a little overkill. It's fun and all, but it does nothing more than a heavy bag does, and cost 150 extra.

    Its because i have nowhere to hang a bag so i thought that the BoB might be a nice little replacement.

    I have a friend who got one as a gift that I have used before. Personally, I wouldn't buy 1 for 50 dollars. It has a weak base and can be knocked over very easily. Heavy bags are much better IMO. If you buy one you will be EXTREMELY disappointed.

    I tried it once, didn't like it. and thats a pretty expensive bag.

    I like my heavy bag, cobra flex, double end bag and speed bag alot better.
