Zach Hudson and his son are currently moving the Trace State Park's baskets into the "Original" locations,
for the Trace Open AM tournament.

For all who need to get some practice on this setup, we hope to see you this weekend.

The AM basket locations are competitive, but not extremely hard to play.
Under-Par scores are achievable for AM's who think their throws out.

See everyone on the course!
