Trickier Than Horseshoes, Ladder Golf

I couldn't believe my eyes when in the mail came this enormous package... a belated Birthday Present!  I am ssssooooo into Birthday Seasons but Wow this one went clear into mid September!  So here is my present, created just for me ( and family cuz playing alone is no fun) by Robb's hands.  Rick assembled the "ladder" in less than a minute, but it was night time. So first thing in the morning yesterday we had a match on the lawn before everyone left for work. 
I used the pink bolas, and Rick the silver.(but maybe silver matches my white wings better?)  
It is Tricky. Just when you think you've made a great shot it wraps and unwraps itself!  We didn't have time to play an official "21 " game, but we played to 10. Actually Angie started and Rick finished.
Look at this shot of Ricks.  Two on the top wrung (3 pts. each) and one on the botton (1 pt.) Yikes, I am going to need to practice, But it is so much fun.  Portable too!  
Would you believe there is a ladder golf web site?  Very Cool!  Did I say Thank You Yet? Barb and Robb continue to come up with home made items that are better than anything in  the store!

YAY!!! You like ladder golf! :) Robb's going to be thrilled. He became obsessed with ladder golf this summer and thought you would enjoy it, too. Sorry it's so late, though. I think he mailed it "Slow Boat to China" rate. :) Happy belated birthday!!!!!!
