Axiom DiscsPro 24-Chain Disc Golf Basket

Best practice basket ever, once you “deaden” the sound.
The basket is super sturdy, the chains are super heavy, it catches just like the course baskets. The color is phenomenal and from what I hear the axiom baskets are more weather proof because of the extra layers of paint/powder coat. Out of all my friends baskets this is easily the best one. Great job MVP/AxiomThe only con is how dang loud they are, the thin metal tubes reverberate a ton and when the chains hit the pole it’s nearly ear piercing. I’m sure my neighbors would get sick of 100 putts in a row.However this is easily remedied with a number of solutions like 1 1/2” pipe insulation or filling the center post with spray foam and using tape or insulation on the bottom 4” where the chains affix to a ring that hits the pole a lot.After using spray foam and tape the basket is 100% quieter and could even be used inside with no ear fatigue.

After using an unspoken, highly innovative collapsible cloth basket for a few years I decided to end the turmoil and get a real basket. This one was highly recommenced and I can see why.Setup was a breeze, took less that 5 minutes to assemble as the chain assembly was fully assembled. Take down is equally as simple, its more portable that I thought. The chains aren't some chintzy dog chain, they're legit real chains like a basket at a course would have. I'm a firm putter and this catches great, I used to get a lot of bounce outs with my old "basket". Had a spike hyzer smash the chains from 320' and this gobbled it up with a very satisfying sound.I'm 100% satisfied with the performance, price and aesthetics of this basket, so much actually I intend to purchase another for putting practice.P.S. The white looks amazing, zero regrets

Great product. Packaging not so great.
I read reviews that led me to believe this is a good product, but the packaging is poor. Now that I have it I agree completely. The first basket I ordered never arrived to me, as it made it just about here and then was returned to the seller due to packaging malfunction. I was given a refund. So I ordered another one. It arrived today.The packaging is poor. The box is made from a very soft and weak cardboard. It either needs to be better, or it needs to be placed into a second box. Additionally, the basket is pretty much in the box loose, with just plastic around each piece. It really needs to be placed into custom molded styrofoam to protect it. But mine was actually in pretty good shape. The basket was slightly out-of-round, no doubt from shipping. But I was able to bend it back without too much issue.Now that the basket is together it looks and works great. The quality, thus far, seems good. I added some adhesive backed felt to the center pole behind the chains. While I like the "clang" of the chains when I'm out on a course, it seemed a bit loud in my backyard. The felt reduced the noise in half.Overall I recommend this, as long as you know that there is a chance you may need to return one if it arrives damaged. I took off one star, just for the packaging. Five stars for the product, once it arrives undamaged.

superb basket, top of the line.
Super impressed with this basket, especially for the price. I wouldn't be surprised if someone told me this cost two bills.A few years ago I made the terrible mistake of buying a 14 chain WhamO for practically the same price, thank dog I was able to sell that piece of trash on caigslist and by this one.Super easy to assemble, nice and heavy duty basket and chains, feels just like a top of the line Pro basket.As other reviewers have pointed out the box was pretty damaged and beat up luckily the basket was in perfect shape, not bent or anything.Went with the hot pink color because it was $30 cheaper than the others for some reason. It wasnt actually hot pink like in the stock photos, the one I got was more of a magenta.Very happy with this purchase. I'll update this review in one year and let people know how it's withstood the test of time.

Great product except shipping and the way it arrived.
Overall the basket itself is easy to assemble as well as maneuverability. Can take it a part put it in my trunk and set it up anywhere. I would have given this product a 5 star rating however, when the product was shipped and upon arrival the packaging was damaged as well as the center ring of the basket as it was broken at the weld points. Rendering the basket useless as the discs would keep going through them instead of staying in the basket with a proper center ring. When I called to get it replaced they said I would have to pay to ship it back and that it would be at least a month until I received a new basket. So instead I ended up fixing the basket with a few coat hangers to keep the center ring in place. If they would have offered a discount for the broken product or at least covered shipping and expedited a new basket I would have rated 5 stars. But I digress the basket is great just make sure the center ring is attached when you receive it.

As good as you can get when it comes to a practice basket.
I am very happy with this item.Keep in mind that it is not perfect but is a top choice for a backyard practice basket.Keep in mind you are not getting a course basket and you are fine.If you want a course basket, they have them on amazon, expect to pay 3-4x more.Pros:It is sturdy. It came with stakes to hold it down. I don’t use them.The chains are heavy and are on par with what you find on a course basket.The powder coating is well done so no need to take it inside if it rains or snows.Cons:It is loud out the box but as stated in other reviews that is easy to quite.The diameter is smaller than a standard basket. ( this is more for someone expecting a standard size basket. It really not a con since it is meant for putti I g practice and it help with confidence when you are out playing on course baskets.The biggest con that I find is that the chai in go all the way to the bottom of the basket unlike course baskets were they stop 2-3” before the bottom. With this I find it is more prone to spit outs on otherwise good putts.
