Playoff hockey is right around the corner. It a time of year that has some of us making slight modifications to our homes. For instance, I install a blast shield in front of my television to prevent me from blowing that thing up on a whim. Or perhaps your a fan who doesn't take out your aggression on your electronics. For that I have anchored a punching bag into my living room. My wife doesn't necessarily appreciate it, but she understands it's better the bag than the wall for both the wall and myself. You only need to hit the stud once to know you need to start marking your walls during the playoffs. (PRO TIP: Get a stud finder and mark your walls during the playoffs. Little bits of painters tape work perfect.)
