Need advice for a tailgate flagpole
I've determined I'm going to invest in a portable flagpole for our tailgate this season (two flagger).
In doing some research, it looks like they vary greatly in price and quality. Does anyone have a tailgate flagpole / stand or had luck with one kind over another? I'm not looking to break the bank, but I don't want something that's shitty quality either. Thanks in advance. |

Straight red or black 'no quarter' flag. I flew a black one in the yard for along time.

I built one that mounted to my receiver hitch. The bad thing about it was you couldn't open the tailgate when it was mounted.

If you're anywhere near the south side of town. I have some portable poles that may suit your fancy. Various choices for about half of their regular price. |

Assuming aluminum is the way to go. I've seen them as high as $300. |

I have this flagpole.
http://www.flagline.com/id1005A005 It works with 1 flag but most times when I've tried using 2 flags it would retract down. |

Due to wind/weather, I'd recommend the 3" aluminum poles. We carry 3 flags and have had no issue at all. For the mount, they have them at Cummins and Old Harbor Freight. You can just mount the base into a 2X12 and you're set. Very sturdy.
