Directional Arrow Ideas

by

Are you needing to direct your members, but you’re the type of private club that has almost no signage on your course? Keep that natural look with understated arrows or signs that could be mounted on a rock. We have so many ideas that we can suggest to you so you get your message across without taking the attention away from your immaculately maintained course. 

Here’s a long arrow (20″) but it stay understated because 1) it’s short and flush with the turf 2) it blends in with the natural rust, but the red details grabs the members’ attention at the same time. 

Now you can leave the arrow single sided, but if you want to make it double sided there’s 2 options. 1st option is to let the hardware show like in the below photo. Hardware is inevitable at least on one side of the arrow. In this case, I think it looks like an added beaded detail embracing the Native American theme. 2nd option is to hand-paint the screws. This works with most colors, but it is painted not powder coated so it’s something that might need to be touched up (depends on how they’re cared for). We recommend leaving the screws bare.

Here’s the newly update gallery for custom directional signage. Take a look and get a creative idea that will work well at your course! As always, our prices are extremely reasonable for the high-end quality and presentation. 

Custom Tournament Awards

by

Looking for inspiration for awards for your next tournament? Well, then this blog is for you. We’re all geared up here at RHI for the Spring & Summer trophy season as you seen from the oodles of photos in this post.

As you can tell, we get a lot of unique requests. Rhode Island CC wanted to give out a ‘world series’ themed trophy, so we made this 2′ version. 

Desert Highlands did a few different awards for their March tournaments. We also made some of their range accessories earlier in the year. Here’s the awards that they did for their putting championship, couples event and their club championship. 

 

Below is the trophy that Spanish Oaks Golf Club did for their ‘Couple O’Nuts’ tournament and then the shootout award is for their ‘Spanish Revolver’ tournament. 

Desert Mountain in Scottsdale Arizona had us make tomahawk trophies for the 3rd year. This year we mixed it up a little and used a new tomahawk. Doesn’t it look nice? 

Rest assured, this foot doesn’t smell.. This trophy is for a local client, Spokane Falls Community College. 

This trophy is for Redstick Golf Club in Vero Beach, Florida. This trophy had an extensive amount of design time involved and there was a lot of thought put into it by our client. 

Then there’s the lamp post award for Carmel Country Club, awards for the charity tournament ‘Mulligans for Maggie’ held at The Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards. Also, featured is the wine barrel award for Champions Retreat. 

Shootout awards are one of our most popular. Here’s what we did for ‘With Open Eyes’, The Clubs at Cordillera Ranch, and Florida Golf Association. 

We had fun with PGA West Private’s superhero theme for the couples tournament!!

The awards turned out beautiful for Wilderness Country Club in Naples, Florida. These are 2 of my favorites from the last 9 years. 

Next, our the awards that we did for Blackstone Country Club and Verde River & Social Club. 

Then there’s the awards that we did for different clients that had a master’s theme to it. 

Lastly are the awards for Squire Creeks’ Azalea tournament, Wendy Novak Diabetes Center plaques, and the horse race awards for Anthem Country Club.

Tournament & Every Day Tee Markers

by

Invest in tee markers that will look great on your tee boxes for years to come. Our custom designs take your presentation to the next level..

We’re excited to share with you the Frost Creek tee markers. We made the tee markers in the shape of their logo and it gives a unique look. 

On these we painted the screws for a clean look. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next are the tee markers that we made for Old Elm Club and Woodland Country Club. 

PGA West ordered 2 sets to start of these tee markers and liked them so much that they ordered 2 additional sets this week. 

Here are a few other tee markers that we made for our amazing clients!

Here’s the canoe tee marker that we made recently for  The River Club in Georgia. It’s hard to tell in the photo, but it’s a 3D tee marker. 

 

We’ve waited awhile to show you the tee markers that we made for Broadmoor. Love the gate tee markers!

Thanks for reading our blog posts!!! 

Tee Markers -BLOG POST

by

Is there talk about updating your club’s tee markers? 

 

Most courses want their logo on all of their tee markers. The Crosby chose to have their logo on their forward tees and then the rest of the tee markers embrace the music theme at the club. All of the markers are powder coated brown -BR47 for a consistent look. The music notes indicate the tee color so that the color is noticeable, but not obnoxious. 

 

Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club have done tee markers for years from us. This year they decided to switch to circle tee markers that stake into the ground. These markers are double sided and we’ve inset their logo. 

Below are the extra tee markers that we made for Westwood’s board members. 

The Pines Country Club chose to highlight their established date on their tee markers. It’s a clean and minimalist way to brand their markers. 

Below are the tournament tee markers that we made for Cal State and Arizona University. 

Bag Stands -Behind the Scenes Blog

by

Opening Day is coming up quick, so this is a great time to get your next driving range improvement project on the books! Call us at 208.635.5203 ext. 102

Today’s blog is going to focus on bag stands. We have about 5 styles that are usually requested, but every once in a while we’ll have a customer who wants something completely out of the box (we love that). We re-did the driving range accessories for The Clubs at Cordillera Ranch in Boerne, Texas. The star of the show on this project are the cowboy bag stands. Notice all of the details in the hat and the spurs. This stand is designed to hold a few clubs and not a full bag (that’s what they’re used for most of the time anyway).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This blog is labeled ‘bag stands’, but we have to show you some of the other range accessories that Cordillera Ranch did that ties in this ‘ranch/western’ theme together. Consistency on the range is key.. 

 

The 1/2 barrel ball baskets that we make look like whisky barrels and fit about 200 balls (2 sizes available). The dividers that we made were of high-quality and thick rope with horseshoes on either end, which fits great for this course’s theme. Then there’s the club cleaning station and driving range A-frame clock. All of their products were powder coated  a semi-texture brown for durability and to give a rustic look. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another Texas client, Westwood Golf Club had us customize the ‘upright square bar bag stand’ that we make. The cup holder fits their club’s cups perfectly. This stand gives a nice clean look to their range. Simplistic is perfect sometimes, don’t you think?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Desert Mountain Club is one of our many Scottsdale, Arizona clients. They chose an ‘upright twisted bag stand‘. In this style we use 1″ twisted metal bar for a beautiful look. There’s 2 holes for alignment rods on the half-circle portion and a cup holder behind the logo. We also used a brown semi-texture non this. 

For PGA WEST Private Clubhouse & Golf Courses in La Quinta, California we did the ‘upright square bar bag stand‘. This is one of our clients who likes to use Dark Bronze as their powder coat. It has a slight shimmer to it if you look really close in person. Most of the time it looks dark brown if your eye balls aren’t directly glued to it, though. 

We re-did the range for Whirlwind Golf Club. We’ve made their wine barrel range targets a few years ago which was a great start, but this time we were asked to make their bag stands, ball baskets, club cleaning stations, clocks, signs & trash can enclosures. Here’s a peak at their ‘A-frame square bar bag stand’. They have a beautiful oven basket logo, but they decided on their stands to keep it simple with just their name. Here’s a photo on our office lawn and then on their range. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for reading our blog, and we’ll make sure to post again soon! There’s a lot more exciting custom projects in the works!!

Re-imagine Your Driving Range BLOG POST

by

Love the wood paneled look, but hate the upkeep? That’s why we started our ‘metal teak line’. 

What’s unique about the Rams Hill Golf Club (in Borrego Springs, California0 project is the teak paneled look that we’ve done on most of their products. It gives a ‘wood-look’, but without the commitment of sealing and staining.. We used a beautiful powder coat called Copper Vein.. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next is the Twin Dolphins project. They’re a new high-end course in Mexico that’s opening. We made their driving range accessories and tee markers. We designed a new bag stand that we’ll show off here in the next few weeks. Notice on their products how all logos and numerals are either flush mounted or inset, which creates a beautiful look. 

Blog: Tournament Awards & Tee Markers

by

Today’s blog post is about the creative designs of tournament awards and tee markers. 

The below photo isn’t just any bridge that our designer dreamed up of. What makes this trophy extra special is that this is a recreation of the bridge that connects the second and third hole at Old American Golf Club. The players that see this trophy are going to immediately recognize this landmark.

Pine Canyon Club worked with us on several events. 

Palmetto Bluff  Sonnenalp decided to go smaller on the awards, which is great for players who are traveling or who have several awards to display. 

Sonnenalp did the same style of trophies for their men and women, but differentiated the awards with colors. The women won teal, and the men won gray. 

Spurwing has done this tournament with us for years, but this year they decided to mix it up with a unique design. 

Silo Ridge used their landmark (a silo that’s on their property) as their trophy theme. 

Greenville Country Club had us make their annual pirate award. Because of Hurricane Florence they’ll be using this award next year. 

Next are the awards for Sunset CC, 12 Oaks, and Union League. 

Union League used different bases for their separate events to differentiate the awards. It looks nice!

Tournament Tee Markers -First up are the 3D van tee markers that we made for Donnelly Mechanical. These creative markers are going to look amazing for years to come!

We also made tournament markers for Marine Drive in Canada and TSMGI in Illinois. 

BLOG: Cart Signage

by

Directional cart arrows are important, but don’t have to be generic. Creating a high-end presentation is about attention to every detail.

At RHI, we look at the whole picture and want every product that we custom make to tie in together for a clean and consistent presentation. Cart Directional Arrows are no exception. Adding your logo, and club colors are just the beginning.

Notice how Twin Dolphins chose to have their letters raised for a high-end look.

Troon’s Southern Dunes chose an arrow with their logo cut out of it for a clean look.

Other times courses decide to go without logo, but tie into their theme with colors. Below is an example of that.

Blog: Golf Shootout Awards

by

Hi. We have several trophy photos to show you today. If you like what you see, make sure to book your tournament date with us  soon. We’re still take October trophy orders. 

 

First up are the golf shootout trophies that we made for Pine Canyon in AZ. We used flat black with wrought iron accents on these along with replica pistol and bullets. 

 

 

Next, we did the Greens & Streams event for the 3rd year. We worked with Rock Creek Cattle Company to freshen up a couple of the designs.

We also created the ‘Beefsteak’ awards for our client Tuxedo Club, and then made ‘fatbird’ trophies for Nemacolin Woodlands Resort. 

Below are is the award that we made for Balsam Mountain Preserve. We first worked with our contact there when he worked at The Cliffs. We love when the pros keep working with us throughout their careers. 

Last, for trophies are the shootout trophies that we did for Moonlight Basin. We love these rustic awards!

For tournament cases, we made this for Hermitage Country Club. 

 

 

TEE MARKER BLOG: Invest in greatness!

by

When investing in tee markers, it’s important to look at durability and if there’s any maintenance involved. We design your tee markers to last about 10 years depending on how they’re taken care of. The powder coating that we use on the metal makes the markers really protects them from getting scratched and holds up well in the sun. 

 

Our big project this week was producing the double sided tee markers for Kissing Tree Golf Club in San Marcos, Texas. The multi-layered design gives these markers dimension, but since we use aluminum, they’re fairly lightweight. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next, are the in-ground yardage markers that we made for TPC Colorado.

We built directional signage for TPC Colorado, too. Their wildlife sign and stop signs turned out nice!

Also, this week we made bag stands for Silo Ridge, Keystone Ranch and Bel Aire Country Club. 

The other driving range accessories that went out this week are range dividers for The Country Club of the North, and then divot mix boxes for Hayden Country Club. Hayden CC is the home course of RHI Golf’s CEO, Reid Hatley. 

Summer is always filled with trophies. Here’s what the rhi crew has created this week. You can tell that our clients are diverse in what they want to give out as prizes.

Thanks for reading our blog. We hope you gained inspiration from it for your next project!
