Has anyone, other than me, played or heard of Laddergolf? It is also known as Ladderball or Hillbilly Horseshoes (which I am not sure why this is more Hillbilly then regular Horseshoes, as if Horseshoes are such a Gentile sport).

I own a set currently, might make my own so it is a better set than what you can buy commercially. Let me know what you guys think

I love Laddergolf. Making your own set is a great idea, considering how simple it is. Plus, you can add all those little personal touches.

What are your rules for scoring? I have played top rung 1 point, middle rung 2, and bottom 3. I have also played where the rungs aren't spaced evenly that the middle is either closer to the top or bottom making that 3 pointer so much harder (depending on if top or bottom rung is 3 points)

I've usually played where the middle is 3, top is 2, and bottom is 1. I've also played on a set that had a rung set behind the main three rungs that was worth 5.

It is a good game. Most people I know that play it do not buy the Ladder Golf game but rather they make one out of PVC pipe.
