Hi,

Buy cheap , buy twice is particularly true with jongs. Go to woodendummies.co.uk - they are superb

Hello,

A bit of advice, think before you buy. If your serious and your getting pretty good at wing chun, I would reeally advise you NOT to buy cheap. Or atleast not make that the highest priority. I would focus on quality. Of course this doesn't mean you can't get a good dummy cheaper at some places. But not all dummies are equal.

The price of a cheap dummy vs a good dummy is often only a couple hundred dollars, and when you factor that in with the high cost, it is worth it. I bought a cheap dummy and it really sucks.

Good Luck

I have to agree with you tparkerkfo. Usually a cheap dummy will run you about $700-$800.00, and a good one will run between $900-$1200.00. Though, if price really is an issue then a couple of hundres dollars can make a difference. I got mine at http://www.woodendummy.net/intro.html , they are pretty nice dummies. ;)

You can go very cheap and go with the PVC dummy, but I don't think they will hold up well personally. But what do I know?!?!?!?
