I wouldn't mind seeing these around. I like the idea of 3 sets of chains. Click the pic & it'll take you to the page.

One thing to help this, that I don't think is done all that often, is to paint the chain holders and the basket in a bright color. DGA will do this for you in the factory as part of your order, but I'm sure there are dozens of places that will do this for baskets you already have. You just have to know the right people.

none of the above
Not at all affordable but Tom Holsten baskets are the best baskets in the world. Meticulously handmade by Tom. Each one is unique and an absolute work of art. Probably cost about $1500 ea. Come to "The Big Freeze" at Dretzka Park in Milwaukee, Jan. 30-31 to see for yourself. There was a Holsten basket raffled off at the Am Worlds in 2007 and Sandy Point resort has one as well.

way overpriced! though the baskets are cool they are not course worthy. plus with the added price $1000!!!!! its just not reasonable. for 1 holsten basket you can have 4-5 of any other basket.
any way see you at the big freeze

The only reason most Holsten baskets aren't course worthy is because they would be a big target for theft and probably not tourny legal but they catch very nicely from my limited experience throwing at them. I also disagree with them being overpriced because of the huge time investment and care put into each ART piece. The Zinc Ultracoat plating alone probably costs more than some recreational baskets altogether. You are right about them being unreasonable for a course though as 10 or 19 baskets would be a huge cost and probably take Tom years to build.

I voted Innova Pro DISCatcher but maybe they should match if what is in place is a good basket.

Nice baskets
Isn't a Mach V essentially a Mach III minus the "nubs of Headrick"?
