All of these pics were taken quite early in the afternoon. As the day went on many MT fans showed up. It was great. I estimate we has as many as 50 people hanging around towards gametime.

A good time was had by all. Thanks to all of the MT fans who made the trip.

I love the look of that skybox peeking over the tents.

Great pics by the way.

Now on the subject of Ladder Golf, perhaps I haven't lived but I ahve never heard of it much less played the game. What are the rules? and what are those two ball looking things hanging in the first picture?

Turbine dont feel bad, we discovered Ladder Golf while vacationing in Gulf Shores this past summer. There was a group that was playing on the beach.

Picture 2 shows one of the ladder golf stands. We have 2 stands that are arainged similar to horse shoe poles. You get points for wrapping a set of golf balls that are held together with rope around each step of the ladder.

Normally we try to get at least 4 people (2 teams of 2) to play at one time. Each person throws 2 sets of balls & scores if the balls remain on one of the steps. 3 points for the top, 2 for the middle, & 1 for the bottom.

1st team to get to 21 exactly wins. If you go over 21, you subtract points.

They have many websites that sell the ladder golf sets. Some sell for as much as $40. I built my set for $8 work of 3/4" PVC & rope. There is always someone around that is about to throw away golf balls so those should be free.

Turbine, we'll reserve a game for you on the 23rd of Oct. and that goes for anyone else too.
