WE have done a few Golf Ball shoots as fund raisers.
Recycled golf balls are cheap.
Make halo's from wire to hold the balls. I use the 12 gage steel fence wire that I always keep on the farm. Make a wrap around a pipe, and bend down the stem. I normally like aleast an 8" long stem, so probably cut to about 12 inches to start with before bending. Put the pipe in the vice vertical. Grap the wire tail with plyers holding it to the pipe. Now make the wrap. Then bend the tail down, and you are done.

We have 4X4 posts with multiple holes drilled for the wire stems. We have the 4X4 posts painted Red, White, and Blue so you know to stay on your own balls. We place the posts on a couple concrete blocks.

We set them up at 25, 50, 75, and 100 yards. However the range could be a lot closer depending on how you run the match. Off Hand, Bench Rest, Supplied Sand Bag Rest, etc.
