    I’m looking to hang a punch bag out back and have no where to hang it.

    Does anyone know if a fence post steak would be good enough to hold a post holding a punch bag ? Or would I need to use concrete or similar?

    You could fix a hefty bracket to the wall of the house.

    You would need a stake with very strong foundations, punchbags are usually quite heavy and when they swing around they would easily loosen a stake in the ground.

    I have seen them hung from a mini-pergola quite successfully, in the middle of four upright posts with a small roof on top. this would protect it from the rain which would destroy a punchbag if left out in the open.

    Few ideas from google:

    Fence post will work. Base can be weight down with weights or bricks if you have any laying around. But it it doesn't necessarily have to be with stable base
