I'd like to buy a good heavy bag that I can practice boxing, thai kicks and knees, etc on. Anyone know where I might be able to find a cheap one that'll still get the job done? Any cheap online stores? Or would you recommend one in particular? Any help would be appreciated.

Maxximus,
not being fascetious: buy a duffle bag (the kind soldiers or sailors get) and fill it up with old clothes or sand and use it for punching or carry it around for dinosaur training. this IMO is the cheapest, a DIY bag.

a good idea so long as you don't have sensitive wrists...then again, I guess you could always make the bag fit your needs, since you fill it yourself..
I like my everlast 100 pound canvas bag. it's heavy, so you get used to hitting big heavy things (men)..also, the canvas is much better than a nylon shell when it comes to using weapons it..the canvas seems to weather really well. it was 99 bucks I think..
I will say that when you buy your bag it's worthwhile to check and see if the bag in question has an even distribution of filler...my bag is soft at face height but hard as a brick at stomach/kidney height.. worse than most.
