Use throwing dummy as heavy bag

[Kung Fu Wang]

I have a 80 lb throwing dummy that's not in good condition for throwing any more. I may hang it on a tree and use it to replace my 100 lb heavy bag instead. Has anyone used the throwing dummy as heavy bag?

Since the throwing dummy has the human shape, you can train

- groin kick,
- neck chop,
- hammer fist on top the head,
- low leg kick,
- move in between arms,
- move in outside of arms,
- ...

that you can't do on heavy bag. The only concern that I have is if I hang it on a tree, my neighbor may call the cops for "hanging dead body".

That's a good idea. I never thought about hanging it.
