WikiProjects[edit]

These kinds of bags are now commonly used to train kicks in various martial arts and martial sports, at least in my experience. I will cite the claim if I include it in the article. Should this really be just included under WikiProject "Boxing"? Perhaps an article of a different name would be more appropriate? For example, "Punching bag" might redirect Punching/Kicking bag or something similar. If there already exists an article that does what I am suggesting, then I would appreciate being thusly informed, but until then I am going to expand the article.

We need someone to revise the "uppercut bag" started by User Slr722x, otherwise it has to go. It seems like it could go well with the article, but I do not know how to make that happen. 99.239.242.69 (talk) 02:59, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I revised the turn of phrase because it has no place here. That is all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.39.165.28 (talk) 16:25, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Types of bags[edit]

Isn't there a kind that stands at human height on a flexible stem, and which swings back to you after being struck ? If so, what's it called ? --Jerome Potts (talk) 19:21, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
