Theres no overhanging part of the house that i could attach this to, this is gonna have to be put on some sort of frame. Im really trying to avoid going out and buying a pre-made frame, but im not sure what else to do.
What could I build the frame from? Would wood work? Im not sure what i could get that would be sturdy enough. If I just buried a long ass 4x4 halfway and put another one across the top would that be enough?
I dunno im just looking for some ideas any input would be great!

I would think your best bet would be to hire a carpenter or a contractor or you if your handy i suppose and anchor 2 posts in the ground and make a sort of frame you would see on a swing set that would let you move around in 360 degrees on it. The frame your describing would have way too much force i think hanging off unsupported and you wouldnt be able to move around it very much.
The other problem is going to be the bag you have to make sure you get an outdoor bag otherwise the regular bag will fill with water and could mold then as you punch it you will be dislodging mold spores and breath them in which is not good.
