Another feature of speed bags is that when you give them a good shake up and down, the shells will tend to orient themselves with the shot load down and thereby making it easier and "speedier" to grasp two shells at once by their rims which are then oriented pointing up. Give it a try, it really does work.

Yeah, if we can go to the moon, we ought to be able to design a bag with shells ready to insert, brass up.

i seen a movie of JOHN WAYNE a while back he was hunting with a hammer gun and what looked like a speed bag made of leather. then again it could have been a game bag. i have often used and old purse as a shell bag and a game bag.did the speed bag serve as only a shell holder or was it also used to put game in.... charlie

McLintock! is the name of that movie, my favorite of John Wayne's. I think he does put the bird in the bag.

On hot days the buuuds go in the netting so they won' spoil in the bag. At least that is how I us it.

I'm sorry, Dean, I misspelled buuuds. The proper spelling, as Harry posts, is "buuuds", not buuds. They are the little things with feathers that we pursue with our "buuud guns".

Speed bag arrived today.
Needless to say, this puppy is built to last a “very” long time.
Looks like it will hold about 100 rounds.
And yes my big paw fits inside the bag.
