PVC Ladder Golf
Uses
This is no different than a regular ladder golf set, I just wanted my readers to know that it can be made much cheaper than it is purchased.
Use this game to practice
underhand tossing skills
and cues.
This can also be a fun family project to create!
Thanks to "Heart Hook Home" for this idea and directions!
Scoring: top rung = 3 pts, middle rung = 2 pts, bottom rung = 1 pt (first to 21).
Construction Materials
48 feet of PVC pipe (3/4-inch)
12 PVC elbows (3/4-inch and 90 degree angle)
12 PVC "Tee Joints" (3/4-inch)
PVC primer and cement
Measuring Tape
Sharpie
12 feet of thick twine (makes 6 strings at 24 inches)
12 golf balls (2 different colors)
Drill and drill bit (bit should be slightly thicker than the twine)
Instructions for Construction
Create the base by connecting 6 of the 2-foot pieces of PVC (see pictures).
use an elbow at each corner and one "Tee Joints" in the middle of each long side.
Connect the rest of the structure according to the pictures.
1-foot pieces used for vertical sides
2-foot pieces used for horizontal rungs that hold catch the "Bola"
Use primer and cement on all parts except the "Tee Joints" on the base, this makes it easier to store.
Drill holes through each ball.
Insert each end of the twine through a ball and tie off with a knot to avoid it slipping through the ball.
For more safety: Use a lighter to burn and melt the knot together to avoid it ever coming undone.

for the original directions and pictures.
Modifications of Equipment
Tie two "Sock Foxtail Balls" (on this site) together if you don't have the resources to create the bolas with golf balls.
if doing this, use a golf ball instead of a tennis ball, if you wish.
Paint or design the structure for more fun and motivation!
Use different colors for each rung to remind participants of the different point values.
