I picked up our 2x3 flag at the post office today on the way home from the airport. Thanks Janet for such speedy service.

I'm sure there are all sorts of solutions out there - I can share what we've done to date. Initially we had a single pole and mounted it on the tongue with strong zip ties around the jack. One at the base of the pole and one as high up the jack as we could get it. This works but you sacrifice zip ties with each installation. Still, we did this for several years. We finally got a nice 3 pole holder from Rob and another forum member sandlapper sells a great one as well.
I've seen some other interesting ideas as well - here are some links:
Flag Pole and Mount | WatsonsWander
Here's one that goes in your hitch receiver: Camco Hitch Mount Flagpole Holder — 2 in. Receiver Mount, Model# 51611 | Hitch Accessories| Northern Tool + Equipment
Here's one that isn't attached to anything - you drive over the base of the holder and the weight of your tire keeps it in place: Poles and Holders :: Mounts :: Tire Mount 22 Foot - Your place for Flag Poles, Flags and Mountings

Thanks but really the entire site team had a hand in this project and deserves credit. They had the arduous task of putting aside personal opinion to come to some agreement about what would be a workable design. It's worse than picking the perfect shade of taupe paint for your living room walls...

Got my flag the other day. Thanks to Janet and the crew here for doing it. I found some painter poles for flag poles (Thanks again Janet for the suggestion) and ordered one of Sandlapper's cool pole holders.
Crunch27 at least we will know who's who if we ever bump into each other

Received our five hole aluminum flag pole holder from forum member sandlapper in very short order. Easy to work with and a well made product. There was a very modest price increase to acquire the five pole model versus the three pole model. I started my conversation with him using the forum private message system.
He suggested the #9272 pole from Mr. LongArm ( www.mrlongarm). That is a six foot aluminum pole with TwistLok that can extend to twelve feet. They do not sell retail and directed me to their nearby full line dealer:
A&M Products
800-670-1356
Extension Poles, Window Washing, Dusting & Cleaning Supplies | Kansas City, MO
The standard carton is six poles and the price per pole is $16.61 plus UPS They stock the several length variations for this model pole.

I just purchased the Mr Longarm poles from Midland Hardware. They were the cheapest I found on the web.

Sorry that I missed the recent availability announcement ...spoke for one earlier and ordered tonight. Thank you for your personal efforts to get this done! It is the "club" flag that we prefer to fly.

Janet- thank you very much for the superb service on the very nifty flag!
WE received it gift wrapped today and my wife really enjoyed opening it.
* Received three days after ordering must be some sort of record! *

We would love one too, how do we order one? We also need replacement stickers, as in the two years of renovation, I have misplaced them.

Janet - Thanks so much for all of your hard work getting this together. Just placed our order and now going to work on the flag poles and holders. Will definitely check out Rob's.
