Step 1 Dig a hole that is at least 6 inches in diameter and 24 inches deep. Most
manual post hole diggers create a 6 inch diameter hole, but if you are
installing an entire course it is maybe worth the money to rent a two man
auger with a 6 inch bit.
Step 2 Assemble one pole and locking collar according to Step 1 of Target
Assembly (see other page). Tape the bottom of the installation tube with
duct tape or packing tape to prevent any concrete getting into the tube
during installation. Place the installation tube in the hole with the tab
pointing towards the tee or line of play, (this will assure that the number
on the target faces the tee). The tab should be at, or slightly below grade
level to keep it away from lawn mower blades and to establish the correct
height for the target. Slide the target pole with locking collar attached
into the installation tube. This will keep cement out of the installation
tube while pouring. Just one pole with locking collar can be used to set
up the installation tubes for your entire course.
Step 1 Pour the concrete into the hole around the installation tube to no higher
than two inches below grade level. This will allow room for a padlock (not
included). Use a level to plumb the pole on at least two sides 90˚from
each other. A torpedo level works best. After leveling the pole, make sure
the tab still points toward the tee or line of play, clean o any concrete on
the locking tab and then carefully remove the pole from the tube.
WARNING: Before digging always contact your local utilities and property maintenance to locate any
underground lines. (Water, Gas, Electrical, Sprinkler, etc...)

BASKET - From the top of the pole
slide the basket down and line up
the 2 holes for the hex bolt, with the
threaded hole on the same side of
the pole as the locking collar tab.
Insert 5/16" x 2 3/4" hex bolt and
tighten locknut. Apply a small
amount of threadlock to the 1/4" x
3/8" hex bolt and insert into the
threaded hole on the basket and
tighten against the pole.
TARGET TOP - Hold up target top to
make sure chains hang freely and
are not tangled. While holding up
target top tilt slightly and slide the
two rings at bottom of chains onto
top of pole. Be careful not to let any
chains cross between the top of the
pole and the hole in the center of
the target top , as you put the target top onto the pole. Line up the three
holes on the target top with the top 3 holes on the pole. Insert and
tighten 1/4" x 3/4" one-way screw into threaded hole on front of target
top lining up with tab of locking collar. Start the 1/4" washer and locknut
onto back of owe-way screw. (Do not tighten) Insert 5/16" x 2 3/4" hex
bolt through target top and pole tighten locknut. At this point tighten
the 1/4" locknut onto one-way screw.
LOCKING COLLAR - From the
bottom end of the pole the locking
collar should slide onto and line up
with the bottom 3 mounting holes,
with the tab portion at the bottom
of the collar. Insert and tighten the
1/4" x 3/4" one-way screw into the
threaded hole above the tab. Insert
the 5/16" x 2 3/4" hex bolt through the
collar and pole and tighten locknut.
