The board is 11 3/4″ x 9 1/8″ x 1/2″ thick
Yes, the Mini eliminates the backboard with scoring but keeps all of the putting action. See it here.
Our Tether Golf backboards are made from plywood designed for outdoor signs and printed with water-resistant inks. You may see some fading, warping and swelling if you leave the board outside all year round.
Our ball assembly can adjust up to 10′ to accommodate most ceilings. If you ceiling is more than 9′ tall consider splicing in an additional piece of paracord so you can reach the adjustment tool.
If you have low ceilings, consider shortening the cord by cutting some off the end near the tensioner and reknotting it.
The cord is attached to a screw eye that you will screw into your ceiling or overhang using the provided anchor or going directly into a joist. See how here: How to Set-Up and Play
It’s very unlikely unless you swing really hard. You will quickly figure out that all you need is an easy putting stroke so the ball will be very slow when it gets to the board.
If you are concerned about your wall, we recommend mounting the board to a piece of plywood and then mounting that to the wall.
Our Tether Golf games do not include a putter. They can be played by swinging the ball by hand. We also recommend asking your friends and family if they have any putters lying around or going to resale stores or yard sales and finding a used putter.
Whoa big hitter, save the driver for the range. Think of this as a medium length putt. Take a look at this video to get a feel for the swing.
Your setup may need tweaking.
First try hanging your ball over the ring like the picture below. It should have about 2″ of cord below the ring. If it doesn’t, the easiest fix is to add or remove slack from the line. But if you like the amount of slack, you may have to move your ceiling anchor closer or further from the wall.
If you have a low ceiling (7 feet or less), you can try shortening the excess cord that is needed for high ceilings. Simply move the tensioner to a height you can reach above your head, then pull the knotted end through the tensioner until the ball is just resting on the ground. Tie a knot outside the tensioner and cut the extra cord. Watch this video for instructions
If both of these look ok, keep practicing or contact customer service at customerservice@tethergolf.com.
