Free standing punch bag

BeanFlicker

Hi folks, could anyone recommend a good freestanding punch bag? My walls are made of crap so can't get a decent bracket. Also not looking at the ones with a stand, moreso like this https://m.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/4537036.htm

I've checked argos but they don't look great, any brands/websites/shops around Dublin worth checking out?

Budget is approx 250e but can go a bit higher

Thanks for the help

I'never used a free standing bag that I didn't think was crap.
Can you hang a regular bag from a joust.

Rather than have a freestanding bag you could look into getting a standing frame which allows a hanging bag.
Ideally you could get something which you could screw/bolt into the floor.

Something like this:

Same here, they're crap. Total waste of money.

Hi is this what you mean by joust....

That's probably my best option at this stage, as I agree and good to hear people's thoughts on the freestanding ones

Thanks, was looking at these too but don't have the room for it unfortunately

I meant joist not joust.
But yeah something like that should work. Any eyelet would be fine as long that the hanging bag comes with a swivel

Reebok do a good one. No idea on price
