I like it when it swings. I dance around it and try to hit it from diffrt angle. I think it develops timing.
Want to hit Heavy bag bymyself....

Meng Mao, that's a great avatar. Wish I'd thought of it first. =D
Tommboy, as it's been mentioned by many here, if the bag is moving around a lot when you're punching, it's because you're pushing your punches, not actually striking. For what it's worth, I think you should stop your self taught heavy bag punching right now and enroll in some boxing classes. In my experience, the people who are toughest to break of their bad habits are the ones who tried to teach themselves how to punch on a heavy bag. Once you actually know how to punch, the heavy bag is one of the greatest tools. If you don't already know how to punch, the heavy bag is one of your greatest enemies.
