Outslayer Unfilled Muay Thai Heavy Bag 6ft Tall Punching Bag, Made in USA

OK, I bought the bag, Unfilled. I like a heavy 'Heavy Bag" and tend to go with Rubber Mulch. In this case Vigoro Rubber Mulch (reddish or brown your choice). The weight is somewhere from 150-200Lbs. I really don't know (ill update this with exact weight). I mounted it with an RDX bar mount that had 4 large bolts into a beam. I would NOT do anything less as this weighs a lot! Packing is literally just filling when it comes to mulch. I like the feel and weight. Good solid thud, yet forgiving on the hands. Construction is great, seems holding fine and I doubt Ill see anything crop up. If I did it would be a freak issue IMHO and I would go fix it myself adding re-inforcement. So yeah 9 bags at 0.8 cu ft per bag was plenty to top it off with a nice rounded top and the zipper holds great. A D ring on the bottom would be cool, I think you can ask for one, but I have NO issues without. I like the bag a lot. Highly recommend! UPDATE: As its nearly impossible to stand a 6ft bag (noodle) on a scale and I dont have a hanging scale the best I could do for weight is go down and weigh the bags. Out of the 10 bags I bought I had an average of 19.7lbs per bag x 8 bags came in just under 160Lbs not counting the bag itself. Also there is a comment made by another buyer who fit 9 bags of mulch in the bag. Its possible, I filled my bag on the ground, he filled it hanging! I’m months in and VERY happy, what’s better is that I’m moving soon to the lower 48 from Alaska and what’s better than dumping my bag and making the house more beautiful for sale and refilling the bag when I get to our new home. its a Win/Win! Cheers!

Aye yai yai. I got bold and ignored all of the horror stories about filling this thing. You may be better off purchasing the filled bag and paying for the shipping. Great bag though overall! I'm taking a star for the narrow opening at the top: Outslayer has got to redesign that if they're going to send unfilled bags to people, stuffing this thing wasn't the easiest.First, I tried to use Blow-in insulation (I saw it recommended a few places online). The crud does not compact AT ALL. Fully stuffed, with a 12.6 lb pvc pipe full of sand inside, the bag got up to 64 lbs. Junk. Not to mention its messy, dusty, slices your fingers (fiberglass in the insulation) and you'll be sneezing dust for hours (get a mask, rookie). So bail on that idea. And yes, I stuffed it very hard (bought a tamper from Home Depot. With the insulation, tamper, and pvc i've already spent like 70-80 bucks)Moved on to cloth, the go-to recommended stuffing. Except good luck finding it if you're in a decently progressive city: Every thrift store in Kansas City has no "trash" piles, "recyclable" piles, nothing to give for free or to buy in bulk on the cheap. I'm not paying a dollar a shirt to fill a 150 lb bag. Started getting clothes from friends, but few people had much to give (I guess people donate regularly). Thank God I started working out at a new MMA gym, one of the trainers sold me a really old and worn out bag for $20 and I moved the stuffing over to the new bag.All in all, a few weeks of ridiculous work to stuff the darn thing. Spent close to $100, returned the tamper and some of the still packaged insulation for $45. Still spent money to fill it, next time I pay for the ridiculous shipping unless I know of some stuffing ahead of time. Took a star off for the small opening Outslayer, though thankfully the zipper is much higher quality than my last 2 Everlast bags.

Love this BAG!!! I do about 10 rounds of kickboxing on this banana bag at least 4 times per week. I hit and kick that bag pretty hard. Hard enough to have my neighbor get a little ticked off regularly. After at least a year of this, the bag looks like it will last quite a bit longer. The label is no longer visible because of the beatings that I administer to it but the black leather still looks great. Cleanup is a simple wet towel and a spray of Lysol. It took a while to fill that bag with loose cloth. I'll tell you what. If you want to get better at boxing or kickboxing, get one of these and practice on it a lot. Your strikes will get WAY stronger, faster, and more accurate. My striking endurance has gone way up as well. As I said, this bag is my most important piece of training equipment that I have. It is set up in my office/spare bedroom and gets a LOT of use.

I feel the bag with rice. I've had about 320lbs of rice init, but not suspended. It's now suspended with about 240lbs of rice. This bag will last a lifetime if you use it the way it's recommended (with maximum weight filler). And I'm sure this bag will last my lifetime even with 100lbs over the limit.

I've had a number of thai bags in the past, of varying quality. My most recent bag finally gave out after only 2 years (a fighting sports bag, which I will never buy again).So far this bag is awesome. It's well built, and while it's not leather, the vinyl has a 10 year warranty, which I plan to put to the test.I definitely prefer unfilled bags, as bags that come filled can have some horrible fillings - I've found nails and garbage in the "fighting sports" bag.Filling the bag wasn't too bad. It took about an hour of labor. We filled it with old clothes and rags and stuffed it in with a bat.The zipper on top held together well during the filling process. The D-rings at the top work well, and the stitching on the straps look pretty good.Time will tell.
