Heavy Bag Question

I had bought a 100 lb bag title bag but they said they were out of stock until the end of aug. so that is a no go. My question the bag i wanted was 100 lb with a bottom D ring, is it worth it to get that ring or should i just go with a 100 lb bag without one. Also:
I saw another bag from TKO anyone have any experiance with this brand of bag it seemed on the cheap end i wondered if i should just spend a bit more for a ringside thanks

TKO is garbage, they fall apart easily.

Wavemaster is crap too. I loathe mine.

Sorry, you get what you pay for, Cleto Reyes is the Heavy Bag (leather) Had one for ten years, outside in 100+ temps, rain and snow. Also the feel is second to none. Try getting it shipped to you from mexico, It might be cheaper. I live in El Paso Texas, get all my Cleto Reyes merchandise mailed to Juarez Mex. and just cross the border, so the prices are cool to me. They will also email you a list of prices if you ask for it.

If I had the ability to use a free standing bag, I'd definately do that, but I needed a freestanding bag since I live in an apartment.

Not too many good freestanding bags out there.

Wavemaster would be good if it was better padded.
The Ringside cobra bag has the spring which is annoying when the bag moves.

What other freestanding bags are out there?

Don't get the Everlast canvas bag! I exchainged the same canvas model twise and it tore e up on me both times. Good thing Big 5 is realy good with custumer suport. Third time I just dished out the difrence and got the fake leather one. No complaints there.
