The reason the center pole is florescent yellow is I have a 4' black light mounted in a tree where the pin sits at the house. This causes the pole to glow at night. Great way to practice at night since my putters all glow under black lights. I have play a few games of horse after getting home from the bar at night.

P.S. what's the deal with adding private courses to this site? Encouraged, or not? (It's not my course)

I would say to check with the owner first, and if he/she is ok with it I say go for it.

Cheap target

I'm trying to build a portable target.
This is what I got so far.. can't figure out a base though

I added some chain to give it that "ching" sound we've come to love

 

[ghaziglare]

base or basket?

Base

What do you think?

how did you make the yellow one? it looks pretty nice

Are you guys trying to make these PDGA regulation or do you care? if so, where can you get the specs to make them regulation?

Yeah, The other basket I made has that. But its kind of a pain to move around the yard

rally dude
I actually bought plans for the yellow one. I specifically bought it because it cost less than 50 bucks to buy materials and put it together. it WAS a sweet basket when it was first finished. it doesnt take weathering very well though. it fell apart during its first winter (san luis obispo, ca). thats why i made the second one out of rebar. it comes apart into 3 pieces and is completely welded together. i recently raised the basket 2 inches due to it not being regulation size. its a legit basket that meets all the standards.

Heres my basket it only cost me about $45to make it. It works good
