A disc golf basket is really a chain arrangement with a tray under it. When a disc arrives, the\nchains take its energy out of it and drop it into the tray. Too few chains and discs sail through\nthe gaps, which is the single most annoying thing a cheap basket does.
\n\nTwenty four chains in two layers is enough to catch a disc arriving at a sensible angle,\nincluding the ones that come in low and fast.
\n\nA permanent basket sunk in concrete is lovely and almost nobody has room for one. This goes\ntogether in a couple of minutes without tools, which means it comes out on a Saturday, gets used,\nand goes back in the shed instead of becoming a garden feature you throw at twice a year.
\n\nIt is also the reason it travels: park practice, a field, a friend's garden, all fine.
\n\nSet it at ten metres and throw ten putts. Then five metres, then fifteen. The point of varying\nthe distance is that the muscle memory you build at one range does not automatically work at\nanother, and a round asks you for all three.
\n\nIf the ground slopes, practise from the low side. That is the putt everyone misses.
\n\nOn grass, push the base into the turf so the pole sits vertical. A basket leaning back catches\nmore than it should and flatters you; a basket leaning forward spits discs out. Neither teaches\nyou much.
\n\nCheck the chain hangers occasionally. A chain that has jumped its hook leaves a gap exactly\nwhere the disc is aimed.
\n\nZinc coating is there to deal with rain, and it does. What it cannot do much about is a basket\nthat sits in standing water for four months. Take it apart at the end of autumn, stand the pole\nsomewhere dry, and it will look the same in five years.
