Is there anyway to get the new to stay upright? We have it staked into terf and compacted pebbled and it keeps falling over.

This can happen sometimes in when the wind picks up. Mine never falls down anymore because I tied the top of it to a tree branch with cord. It was pretty easy to do with a step ladder and will last a lot longer this way. The main thing is having a tree in a good location with a nice branch that is about 10 feet high or so where you can tie the top of the golf net to.

Not sure Id be of much help on this one. Mine is staked into the ground dirt. Try a cinder block or something really heavy that won't get in the way.

We cant get ours to stay upright either. Feel like we have been ripped off.

You have to be careful to put the heavier on the bottom. It can get a bit too wobbly w/ too heavy of things on the top. If you do, I'd also recommend making sure the floor is level. Ours isn't and that also adds to the wobbling.

Ours flop all around, but I'm sure if you knew someone who did alterations or could sew a little, you could buy some foam and re-sew them into the pieces to make them as firm as you'd like. Depends on how badly you want it fixed I guess. That, or you could just buy a new one if it's the same cost to fix it.

We haven't had that problem. As long as it is on a level surface. I saw the response about putting your foot on the base and rotating the handle a couple of times. The rubber feet are what keeps it standing.

Make sure you have the disk/flange underneath the base seated correctly. Once it is seated you should be able to tighten it up and it won't move any more. From time to time we have to tighten ours up after a month or two of play. Hope this helps.

Send him an email or contact Amazon about your issue, they will take care of it. If you've only had it for a month or so, just call Amazon and explain, i've never had a problem with them taking care of my problems. If you bought it from DesertOasis, you should've got an email from them after your purchase explaining how to assemble it and also how to contact them for assistance. Let me know if i can be of further help...Darryl

I have the same problem. The way they shipped it (folded), you can't make it lie flat. It is a piece of crap. I'm going to send mine back.

this has not been a problem for me. Are you zeroing it out? Has this been a problem from the first for you? Mine has always settled in, but there are occassions when it does kind of go back and forth between for example 27g and 28 g if you are really on the edge of a little more than 27g and a little less than 28g. I hope this is helpful. If yours is bouncing all over then perhaps you have a defective one. I hope this is helpful. Good Luck.

Call Amazon to find out about that question and to get in contact with the company. I have done the same thing. There is a trick to putting it back together. But in some cases it will not work correctly again.

Mine is also wobbly! I am having problems with it; am sure I put it together correctly but it is not very sturdy. Has anyone else found this and what did you do?

The bottom is very weak! Leave the bottom out and top on, then flip it upside down. Have to permanently attach it, but would be strong enough that way.

You need to at least put some rocks on the legs or something. A 308 will tip it over if it's not staked or weighted down.

I put mine up on rail road ties. Served two purposes one made it taller and two rail road ties are heavy. I hammered re bar through them to make sure they didn't move. Another solution might be to get a few bags of quick Crete concrete from home depot and burry some metal anchors with it to attach the legs to. Hope this was helpful

Hello Donna. We never had that problem but maybe it is off level. Try on a different surface or maybe stairway got bent. Good luck!

The holes on the base can be a bit out of alignment like happened to me. Turn the base bottom side up and do a little twisting of the heavy weight to make it work. Hope this helps.

I have never had a problem with mine falling over. Sorry I can't help on this one. Maybe the set is defective or not put together correctly.

I would probably suggest some type of brick or stone under the feet to keep it from sinking into the ground too much. I put mine on some slate patio squares. You may also have to check the cemetery rules to see if it is permitted as some can be fussy about that.
