Check out these Black Rock Trophies!

by

These turned out so cool, I just had to put them up. These are some hand-painted, hand-sculpted trophies for the Wyatt Earp Open at Black Rock. It’s their Member-Guest, and they give out some amazing gifts/prizes. These are actually second-place trophies. I think first place gets a custom gun!

The ‘stump’ on these starts as a piece of 8″ pipe. The bark texture is actually weld slag. We joke that it takes a lot of talent to weld that poorly. The wood texture and the portrait of Wyatt Earp are handpainted. The wrap around band is colored with an acid wash and a copper patina. Really a neat piece.

Contact us today, so we can start working on a custom piece of art for your tournaments this year.

Tee Markers, Member-Guest Awards & Gifts, and Trump National!

by

What’s in the shop this week? Well, other than some more lousy snow outside – here’s some of the things we’ve been working on lately.

First up are a set of tee markers for Arrowhead Golf Club out of Colorado. These are cut out of 3/16″ thick steel. They had us do them in 4 custom colors, here are a couple of them that I managed to grab a picture of before they were all boxed up.

New tee markers that were just sent to Arrowhead. 

Next, we’ve had several requests for tournament awards and trophies that “are something we’ve never seen before”.  We’ve been experimenting with some new techniques and have paired up with a talented local artist to produce some awards and trophies that are truly unique.  These are just samples at this point, but they turned out beautifully – and at a great price point for something of this quality!

This course asked us to come up with both a gift that each participant in their Member-Guest could recieve and a trophy for the event winners.  They wanted something with a “Native American Hatchet”.  Each piece is cut out of steel and hand painted.

A great new idea for member guest gifts.

The trophy is based on a piece of 8″ pipe, and probably weights 15-20lbs.  It’s also hand crafted and painted.  His incredible painting gives it a 3D look that is stunning.

The River Club asked us to create something unique for their member guest trophies. More trophy details.

Here’s another sample for a desert course.  This simple cactus will make an amazing centerpiece for a trophy.  All of the texture is done with just weld splatter and then hand painted.

Let us know if we can start working on something original and unique for your 2012 Member-Guest!

Finally here are a pair of boxes that were purchased by the guys at Trump National.  The two boxes serve two different functions.  First is what we call at ‘scorecard box’.  This gets mounted on a pole (included) and is usually stationed near the first tee.  It contains scorecards, pencils, tees, divot repair tools, etc.  The second box is what we call a ‘tournament box’.  This one is usually used by tournament organizers to carry the things they need from event to event and helps keep everything they need in one handy location.  The tournament box is made of 1/8″ aluminum and is a great looking box that is more durable than anything else on the market.  Both boxes can be completely customized to your individual needs and requirements.

And the tournament box – it latches securely, has a sturdy handle, and a foam-lined bottom.

Tournament boxes are great for keeping everything you need to run your event organized. Here's the finished Tournament Operations Box for Trump National.

New Proximity Marker Design!

The best just keeps getting better! We’ve listened to everyone’s suggestions and made some tweaks to our Proximity Marker design…

It’s the same durable, steel holster with the pen and tape measure holders that we had before. That part hasn’t changed. What is new is the card. On the old version of the marker, the card and the plexiglass were seperate pieces. The card slid in behind the plexiglass – you wrote on the card, and the plexiglass protected the card from weather and sprinklers.

On the new version of the card, the plexiglass and the card are a single unit. Now you write directly on the plexiglass instead of the card. There are several benefits to this.

  • This gives us several new options for writing instruments.  The old card was limited to wet erase markers, which are not that common.  By writing on the plexiglass, you can now use wet erase, dry erase, grease pencil, even a Sharpie.
  • Dry erase markers, although they easily wipe up with a touch, are surprisingly durable in the wet.  They don’t run in the rain or if they get hit by sprinklers.
  • A Sharpie can be used.  To remove Sharpie pens, we suggest using Goof Off: Heavy Duty Spot Remover & Degreaser or Krud Kutter Graffiti Remover that come in wipes or squirt bottles (do not use the aerosol cans). These are readily available at stores such as Home Depot and Lowes. Do not use Xylene.
  • If in the event, the plexiglass does eventually become dirty or scratched, you can now cheaply and easily replace the plexiglass instead of having to replace your logo’ed aluminum card.
  • Because we’re no longer writing on the card, we can now make it any color – no more white cards only!

  This is our ‘standard’ option that is used for Longest/Straightest Drive Contests.  This is your custom logo on the card and both the card and the holster can be powder coated any color.  This is a great addition to any tournament kit, and an exceptional value at $75.00/each!

Basic Proximity 4 - $65.00 and up

5.  We can take your design to the next level.  Special requests like additional text cut into the card, multi-layer logos, additional color backplates, etc. can all be designed and accommodated.  Contact us for pricing on these truly custom pieces.

Don’t forget that A-frame KP signs make a great pair with your proximity markers, and as we said in our last post, we’ve also designed new carrying and storage options for both the tee announcement signs and the proxies.
