At home baskets!

So what kind of baskets does everyone have at home? And does anyone have a "home made" basket? I am looking for a good portable basket to use in this little field next to my house but cannot really afford $160 right now....

I have a Innova Disccatcher Sport $180.00
and a DGA M-14 $124.95 at Gotta Go Gotta Throw

i got a basket off ebay called an instep. Its a great buy (80 bucks) very similar to your regular metal baskets.

I love em

We have a couple innova discatcher sports (not too bad) and a Lightning DB5 (a real nice basket). Currrently we're making 9 "homemade" baskets that are pretty close to the same dimensions as a pdga approved basket. I don't have any pics of them yet, hopefully soon.

I use a innova skill shot, I think it was 100$ or so, Collapses like a camping bag chair, heavy but awesome. Fits in to trunk with a stroller and all the other family goodies.

its funny how you can get a sweet folding chair for 20 bucks or so, but the same material with some chains on it jacks it up a hundred bucks or more.....just my thoughts.

on our third skill shot here. all three have held up well and with careful shopping can be around $100.

of course a tone pole is a lot cheaper :)

I have a innova discatcher sport I paid 150 for it and it was a great buy, catchs putts better than other portable baskets
it's a high price but seems to hold up better than a m-14 or instep basket which didnt last to long for me

[D.J,]

go with the mach lite for a fold up basket and prolly the m14 for a metal basket

i have an innova skillshot and its been pretty good to me if you get one dont leave it set up or the canvas cover starts to wear at pressure points

i really wish i would have bought the mach lite for a portable collapsable basket tho

Thanks everyone... these are some really great options. I looked at the DGA M-14 and it looks like the way to go, but is it possible to add additional chains on to these? 14 chains seems like they would let some discs slip through...

If ya'll get a chance check out Troy Built's photos of his back yard, he's got 4 homemade baskets that he did himself and he said they cost him about $100.... they are pretty sweet!

If anyone else has pics I'de love to check them out!

I have a m-14 and added 7 exta chains to it with s hooks got the exta chains and hooks from Lowes for about $25, they even cut the chains for me. (Guy thought it was odd to get 7 pieces of chain 20 inches long.) But it works great.

Look on Ebay.
See if anyone is selling a 'used' basket.
