Creative, if it works it works, don't fix something that isn't broken.

Altough maybe make it a little bit heavyer or add something to simply strap it to the fence, don't want it to fall when you hit it.

It stays on pretty well. It hasn’t fell yet. I use it a lot too

I think the only way it would fall if the ball hits it.

The hooks look like a wall mount cloths hook? The telescoping rod? Can you explain the parts are?
At 12 ft up is the service line on far side over the net tape?

I took pictures of it but it won’t let me upload it so I found it at Walmart.com
I place it at the T and almost to the top of the fence.

Cool, all set for next year now. Been standing on 5 gallon bucket to wrap flex tripod, this should get me to the top easier, thx

I just made a similar mount today. I got a monopod from Amazon Basics, the towel hook used above and mounted my GoPro Session. Rather than duct tape I used zip ties.

I also zip tied a battery pack to the monopod so I could record longer.

Worked really well ... I'll post a pic of it shortly

Thanks for the idea!

You could bungee cord the pole to the fence. It won't fall.

That's nice. Do you guys both use same camera and what is the camera?

With these GoPro's you can't view the video on the device itself right?

Correct, but I'm pretty sure you can view it on your smartphone … but you probably wouldn't unless it's a small clip like just a couple serves or something. Also you can use the phone to make sure it's pointed correctly at the court.

Usually I put my gopro in the middle of the court. Where the T is.

How is the sound quality? Can you hang it up high on the fence and hear the ball pop and/or be heard talking?

Does it pair with a mic?

Sound is not the best but you can hear the wind on a windy day. Also you can hear the ball hit the fence.

Here is one of my videos
