Generally. All sand bag (sand masters included) have sloppy sets. That is why eventually people switch to 32 panal bags with pellets/shot/whatever the stitcher cares to use. Sand bags are for stalling. That is the beauty behind the use of them for learning.
When you are just learning, it is more important that the bag stalls better than sets all that great. If you were to start of with a 32 panal, you would become rather frustrated because you would more likly than not, not even be hitting toe stalls.
There comes a point where you no longer have to think about stalling, it is more just expected or known that if you plan to delay that bag, your foot is going to catch it(In theory. Harder tricks make it harded to stall the bag even if you a "pro" and stalling).
It's at this point that a 32 panal bag becomes preferable. we play with 32 panal bags because they set better. In high difficulty tricks it is far better that that bag sets true and goes right where you want it than it is for the bag to be super stally.
So I spose basically what I'm getting at is you'll take a little time to get used to the Mr. Bag but trust me, that bag sets better than a sandmaster and sits better too. Mr. Genz done a great service to the footbag community in making and selling Mr. Sandbags. They are what make new players keep trying after they hit that first ATW or Mirage.
Be good to your Mr. Sandbag and He'll treat you right the same my friend.
