Default Basket 11 Stolen!
It appears someone has made off with Basket 11 (old Hole 8). Working on a solution for League but please keep your eyes out on Craigslist and beyond for an Innova Discatcher.

Thank you.

Bolt cutters on the lock?
Cut the center pipe?

Just once I'd like to see one of these scumbags serve as a graphic warning to anyone else considering ripping off a basket from one of our courses.

Did you check the bushes etc nearby? Sometimes they stash em for later.

From what I understand, they dug out the entire thing and got away with it.

Good point, Jeff... but I think Andy looked around and didn't find anything. Someone left a stick in the long position...

We should simply offer up a $300 reward for information leading to the ARREST of the culprit and the return of the basket. We're going to spend that much to replace it anyway, and I'd like to see the scumbag in handcuffs.

Solution for league is easy... somebody brings their basket and we chain that sh** up during league and it leaves with them at the end of the night. We should also keep an eye out on those guys living across the street in those run-down appartments, they have been known to steal discs out of plain sight, and are obvious drug addicted losers. They also have easiest access and have knowledge of the course, and surrounding area. We should also contact the metal scrap-yards and see if anybody has tried to sell a basket.

This should be done really quickly. Really good way to both catch who did it and get our basket back. Cheers, Mat.

The ground part of it is still there and not hurt. It looks like the lock was cut.

Drove by the course on the way home and the basket appears to be back in. Anyone know if it's the original basket or a replacement?
