Ball golf is doing the opposite and has been experimenting with larger holes to make the game more fun and draw more recreational players. (Can A Bigger Holes Save Golf?)
I think a switch to smaller baskets is probably necessary on a professional level. On the other hand, the baskets that currently exists are perfect for the recreational player. Aces are an exciting part of the game (seems like some people play for that reason alone). Last week I saw a guy **** his pants after he threw an ace on a wide open 160 foot hole. For that reason, I definitely like the concept of making the basket adjustable to maintain the fun factor for recreational players.
