How to Build a PVC Yard Golf Game

The game of tossing golf ball bolos at PVC ladder racks goes by many names. Whatever you call the game, it has certainly exploded in popularity. The reason the game has become so popular is because it is fairly safe, lots of fun and easy and inexpensive to construct yourself.

Things You'll Need

  • 5 - 10-foot sticks of 1-inch PVC pipe
  • 12 - 1-inch PVC T-connectors
  • 4 - 1-inch PVC elbow connectors
  • Saw

  • Drill
  • Nylon rope

Instructions

  1. Ladder

    • 1

      Use your saw to cut a PVC pipe into six pieces, each 1-foot long. Cut another seven pieces of 2-foot long pipe.

    • 2

      Put T-connectors on each end of one of your 2-foot pipes. Insert a 1-foot section of pipe in each of these T-connectors and make sure they point in the same direction. Repeat this once more to create the bottom two rungs of your ladder.

    • 3

      Use a T-connector to connect two more 2-foot sections of pipe, so that the T-connector is in the center of the pipes with the open end of the T-connector facing up. Do this again to make a second piece. Add 1-foot sections to either end using elbow connectors. This is the base that will support the ladder form.

    • 4

      Stand the ladder form upright and push it tightly into the T-connectors at the base.

    • 5

      With the final 2 foot piece of PVC, add two elbow connectors to each end and fix them to the top of the ladder apparatus.

    • 6

      Repeat Steps 1 through 5 to make another ladder.

    Bolos

    • 7

      Drill a hole through the centers of 8 golf balls.

    • 8

      Thread nylon rope through a golf ball and tie a knot to secure the ball to the rope. Secure another golf ball of the same color onto the other end of your nylon rope. This is a bolo. The rope should be long enough to wrap around one rung of your ladder at least three times.

    • 9

      Make four bolos in two colors. If you only have one color of golf ball, use a differently colored nylon rope for each team.
