Ladder toss is an outdoor game often played at tailgate parties, beach outings, and backyard gatherings. The game involves tossing bolas (two balls connected by a string) onto a ladder-like structure to score points.
The primary component of ladder toss is the ladder structure, which typically includes three horizontal rungs. The ladder is usually made of durable materials, such as wood or metal, although it might be made of plastic. The choice of material affects the durability and portability of the game set.
The bolas are the projectiles used in ladder toss. The balls themselves can be made from rubber, plastic, or actual golf balls, which provide a satisfying weight and feel when thrown. Some sets offer soft bolas for safer play, made especially for children.
Some ladder toss game sets include built-in scoring systems to keep track of points. These can be simple markers on the ladder or more sophisticated systems like sliding scorekeepers. Ladder Golf sets often come with scoreboards, with some using electronic scoreboards.
Portability is often an important feature for outdoor games. Many ladder toss sets come with durable carrying cases that make transporting the game to different locations easy. These cases are designed to fit all components snugly and protect them during transit.
Over time, parts of the ladder toss set may wear out or get lost. Replacement parts, such as bolas, rungs, and knobs, are available from several companies.
Some manufacturers offer customization options for ladder toss sets. These might include personalized engravings on the ladders or custom-colored bolas.
For serious players, tournament edition sets are designed to meet official competition standards. Typically, these sets are more robust and come with additional features, such as reinforced ladders and premium bolas. Ladder Golf offers a Tournament Edition Double Ladder Ball Game that is made for competitive play.
