The wife surprised me with an early bday present in the form of an Axiom basket! She got Red (thank God) and I set it up in the basement and practiced for about 30 mins last night.
Really did not expect the basket to be so nice. My grandmother could set one up with no tools, and everything is as it should be. Nice heavy chains and it catches great. Very nice basket, quality finish and chains... 10/10 will be buying more for a backyard course!
I got this one back in 2017. I keep it out of weather or in the garage, and it's held up well. It's a touch wobbly so you get what you pay for, but if you're in the market for a cheap basket (I figure the OP found one by now), it's not the worst thing you could get.
One I found online that people like is this basket, the lowest priced model that is all metal with full sized disc catcher and is Galvanized to prevent rusting. https://www.amazon.com/Driftsun-Typ...8GMMXEAG5XN&psc=1&refRID=WDDG62NFN8GMMXEAG5XN
One thing that may be a consideration for some is that this target is not approved by the PDGA.
Yeah I thought it was let me check. Well that only had in the list the championship level. I thought the Driftsun was a Standard level basket?
It's not approved. I should know, as I've done the PDGA testing for all targets and discs since 1989.
Thanks for testing Discs and Targets.
Has anyone had experience with both the Axiom HD and MVP Pro HD V2? I'm between those 2 right now but want to know the differences
Fans of the Black Hole® Pro HD V2 can rejoice as Axiom's unique color combinations join the mix! The Axiom Pro HD features all the upgrades in the Black Hole® Pro HD V2 and comes in 4 unique color combinations.
It's basically the exact same basket but Axiom comes in four colors. From their website:
Do you want Black or do you want color?
I was wondering if that was the only difference. I know between the Black hole Pro HD and the V2 there is a jump from 6mm to 8mm wire for the basket. I wasn't sure which the Axiom was. Probably the 6mm
That quote I found from their website makes it sound like it will be 8mm just like the Black Hole HD v2, features all the upgrades in the Black Hole HD v2. Axiom is a company under the MVP umbrella so it would stand to reason they are the same basket just offered in colors.
To me this is the lowest end permanent basket on the market. https://gottagogottathrow.com/colle...ucts/lightning-db-5-18-chain-disc-golf-basket The local in town course where I live is using all but the tops that are Mach III from the State park course when they got the modern cage Mach III in the blue in May 2014 or 2015.
