Answer#1: unless you use wraps for your hands you will tear your hands up on canvas. Invest in the heavier bag. You'll appreciate it later, also it's better for your kicks (doesn't send the bag flying all over). You're better to use wraps anyways so you lessen the chance of a boxer's fracture or a sprained wrist until your wrists are stronger.So essentially I'd get a 100-120lb canvas bag and enough wraps for everyone that will use it. Otherwise they wear out in weird spots because different size and shape hands are using them.
