Small, light, ball barrier
I would like to make some type of barrier to keep rolling golf balls
from leaving the lawn and entering the shrubbery. I have been practicing short shots in the back yard. If I hit it a bit too long or a bit too flat, it will roll off tyhe edge of the lawn and into the never-never land of the shrubbery. What in have in mind is something light that I can push into the dirt with my hand and remove. It needs to be about 6-8" tall and somewhat rigid. The total length will be about 20', but needn't be one piece -- four 5' sections would be OK. My first thought was for a piece of 1x6 or even something thinner; maybe even strips of 1/4" pegboard. I'd drill holes in the bottom edge and glue heavy wire for the stakes. I stopped by a local hardware store looking for some type of plastic, but didn't see anything. I bought a roll of rain gutter screen and some tent stakes, but the screen is too flimsy. It needs to be stiffer. Does anyone have a better idea than the pegboard? |
