Flag pole bracket/holder?

How do you display the Flag or flags? I have noticed in photos at rallys there are flags displayed. Are these in holders attached to the tt....like near the propane tanks?

I have the little suction cup type that displays three; it is left-over from my MH.

Wishing for more of a "production" of a holder, I was thinking of using the holes left over from my friction sway control. (dual cam replacement here).....having a shop fashing a base to fit those holes and using an extension of some type mounting a holder perpendicular to that extension...

Any of you got ideas?

Ijust put on a Reese HP Dual Cam. The bracket comes close to, but does not touch, the ball for the friction sway control. I'm going to simply leave the friction ball on the tongue. It doesn't look bad and it doesn't hurt anything there.

If I wished to remove the friction ball, I would make a black plate to cover the holes, probably of aluminum.

Kistler ,I understand your wanting to use those exsisting holes for some type of a flag holder.But the flag poles would interfer with stone shield operation, plus the flags would be too close to the trailer. The hitch post is still the most logical locaion ,in terms of distance from the coach ,sturdiness,and symetry. If your really concerned with the holes left behind from the friction setup, you could take the trailer to a welding shop and have the holes welded shut, put a bolt in the hole if its threaded ....even cut the bolt head off and sand it flush with the rest of the tounge,or simply put some JB weld in the holes sand it smooth then paint it. I hope this helps you. Tom
