Someone earlier asked if anyone knows the heights of the scoring pegs from the ground. If you compare to the field drawing, the first lines up with the bottom of the tube re-entry window, which would be 45" tall. The middle column is then up to 8 inches above that, so probably around 50-53ish ". You can't tell how far apart the actual pegs are from each other vertically, however, since a dimension is only given for 30" center to center of the support poles at the bottom. (horizontally). If the 30" center to center numbers applied to the scoring pegs as well, and the picture is drawn to scale, the top peg would be about 11 feet tall. :/

Does anyone know actual measurements for re-creating a field...?
You could look at the official drawings they have all the measurements.

From looking at them and building the posts in inventor the highest pegs are about 112" and 104" and the lowest pegs are about 40" and 32"
