So how is the other park (18 holes) coming along (Miami Meadows park?)
Wonder if this will have any affect on them.

That sucks :( I hope the park replaces them!! Woodland Mound has sort of "permanent" ones in place where it looks like a metal post is embedded into the concrete and the basket is bolted directly onto the post... is it too late for this park to do the same? I'm guessing so since the concrete is already poured.

The park did a good job on reinstalling the baskets. I was surprised by how good hole 3 looks. It was a pretty boring hole before, but now you can take two different routes and the hillside to the right looks nice.

The type of basket that is used at the Milford course is not meant to be installed permanently. They are a portable basket. If you compare the baskets from Woodland to here you'll notice that the baskets at Woodland are a thicker and heavier guage metal.

All baskets will everntually succumb to abuse, but the type that are in Milford will be more easily damaged. Hopefully they can deter people from this kind of activity again.

Kudos to the park on the quick response. It's good to know that the DG community has their support.

This is my home court, since I live less than a half mile away.

Made my first hole in one in a long time on #1 yesterday.

Suggestion: Next year we could run fund raising events to buy permanent baskets and then donate the current ones to a local school to use.

basket #7 is pretty wobbly, I just noticed that today, not sure if it was like that yesterday, unless I was just in too much of a hurry to think about it.

another good round of 9 today. 2,2,3,3,4,2,3,1,4=24 Last hole had toddler hazards.

Number 9 basket is installed correctly now. They fixed it after the vandals hit .

Got back to this course yesterday for the first time since the vandals hit and cleanup was done. Lots of changes. Like the course map at the beginning. I was amazed how much brush/tree clearing had been done. You can see half the course from hole one. It was constant play on the course. Just about a group on every hole and we all seemed to play twice through. With all the brush gone along the creek it was a day for lots to put one in the creek (including us). Like the creek but would be nice to have more brush there to keep some out. In my opinion it is a little too open. I like bushes and such to avoid and now there are lots of open shots in the first 5. Was a good day however.

Yeah we were there with lots of good players and I am not sure one of them did not put it in the creek on 5.
With such a small flat surface, you must land it flat or it will roll down to the creek.

LOL, try playing Bankilick left handed.  It teaches you to play it safe when you can roll down into a creek, and that creek is far worse than Milfords...

If everything was open , would there be much of a challenge ? Hole 5 was actually made easiler . We were going to have it go back to where #6 basket is, but we had to shorten it in order to make some changes on the upper holes. Again this is a beginner/family freindly course. It is designed to introduce players to the game, not to discourage them.
