My local field has a spike in the airball setup and we can hardly ever put it up because it is to windy in kansas. Every once in a while we are lucky enough to be able to do it and sometimes we just lay the spike down. Any ideas on how to keep it up?

Fill the bottom with sand or Rocks or something heavy? Kinda like those old inflatable punchingbags for kids? Just put a lot of weight in the bottom.

It doesnt have a special compartment for that. Would it be a bad idea to put it through the valve hole?

Let out a little bit of air then put the sandbags on the.... Flab? That is left on the bottom should hold them up with help from the spiked?

If you have a dead bunker, you might be able to cut part of the bunker up and fill that with sand and then use rubber glue to glue it to the bottom of the spike. Don't know if that would actually work or not though.

That doesnt seem like it would really help because ziploc bags are small
