    We are looking into purchasing a fairway snake to drag fairways on various occasions.

    We are within a large housing community where we would have to go across a road after each hole.

    I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on which fairway snake out there may work best for us?

    Thanks for the help!

    Luke,

    We've had a couple of Fairway Snakes over the years and they didn't last that long. Maybe employee misuse? Anyway, we ended up using two 1 inch Flexogen hoses coupled together, filled it up with dry sand and put swivel ends on it. Ten years later we are still using it. Inexpensive compared to the "Snake" and so far it still serves us well.

    Works for us...

    about 40 years ago I was in the bay area near docks and we used a huge tanker docking rope as it wore it just got better.

    contacted our fuel company and they had used fuel lines that they could no longer use.  Got them for free, used chain to connect pieces of the hose together
