Bag Punching
What is a good approach to building a apparatus to support a punching bag?

I have a punching bag actually its a kicking bag so its a bit longer than your normal bag its about 6ft. Anyhow, it weighs 130 lbs and I have a garage in which I have tons of room to hang it but im not sure how to go about building the support for it.

My first idea was just run a thick peice of plywood or 4×4 across and land it on two support beams but the area in which I want to hang it is pretty wide and I fear its going to eventually snap the wood in half..

Anyone have any good ideas on this? I can get the tools and whatever I just need the idea..

Carpenters to the rescue!
The roof is like that of an addict. it, if you look up there are 6 lengthy beams running left to right they are easily like 20-30ft. Above that is the triangluar look of the ceiling with its support and its all wood. Im sorry for not being that great with the structure design im not that knowledgeable in the field. But if it helps its like an old barn.

Need to know what the structure of the ceiling/roof is.

Okay, how far apart are the long beams and what are the dimensions of the beams (width and height)?
