On site, one little suggestion is to use 4' stakes or sticks pounded into the ground to mark proposed basket locations. Place a large plastic bottle, or bucket on the pole to make a temporary target that is visible, and even throwable. You can place small landscape marker flags (the little flags on a wire kind) in the ground, but they are not visible at all until you're stepping on them. Those little wire flags are reasonable for marking out the proposed location of tee pads. Remember to bring a sharpie to write on the flags.

The whole time that you are walking the course and marking potential locations of holes, tees and baskets, you need to be recording GPS data so that you can later map these same features on the computer.
