Used Halex Target?

[Almost_Gets]

Any previous owners/users of the Halex Disc golf target (http://www.amazon.com/Halex-24500-Disc-Golf-Set/dp/B000PSQOT8)
would you pay $20 for one if it was used?

Just started playing disc golf about a month ago. I'm pretty good with my putting, but think it would be nice to set up when I can't get to the course.

Better than nothing? Or not even?

Its the same thing as the instep and they cost between 70-100 new. not a bad buy for 20

If it has plastic chains, budget for new real chains.

this. the plastic chains on these things are terrible.

i have one. 20 dollars is a good buy, but i recommend you "restore" it with real metal chains as i did

I bought a used one for $20 and invested $14 in chains. I think its great to practice putting.

I would take a used one for twenty bucks if anyone has one to get rid of.

I already have pleny of chains to "restore" it.

I'd jump on one of these in a heartbeat.

I just got the instep one from eBay, and love it. $75 free shipping...

I have an instep basket for #6 on my course. Always need more to add holes to the course.

The Halex is NOT the same as the InStep. InStep doesn't have plastic chains, and it doesn't have the tri-pod stand.
Still, probably an ok deal for $20

Here it is.

So I'm thinking that it was well worth the $20 at this point. Could use some TLC and an extra set of chains, but it will for sure improve my putting just because it's something to throw at. Thanks to all for your help. Will post another picture after all revisions are complete.

Yea I have the same basket, I put reflective tape on the middle post and I put a solar light on the top to help practice in the dark. I also put a second set of chains in the middle, at michaels they sell large metal rings that worked good to mount the second set of chains to.
