At a Glance..

St. Charles Country Club’s new bag stands just came in and their driving range looks great!!

We worked with CDA National Reserve on their driving range set up and it looks beautiful! We also made their tee markers earlier this year. We love all of our customers, but it’s nice working with courses in our backyard, too!! 

Here’s a look at the Troon driving range update that we did for Entrada at Snow Canyon recently. They have new bag stands, dividers & half barrel ball baskets for a clean & consistent look. The beautiful coloring is called Copper Vein and we went with see-thru logos for an understated look.

This is some of what we did at the Discovery Land Co. property, Driftwood. They chose a custom shade of green and worked with our designers for a brand specific look. 

 

 

What’s New at RHI Golf

by

Hi everyone.  Today’s blog is a look into what’s been going out the doors here at RHI Golf so you can get inspiration.. 

The Director of Golf at Blackhawk Country Club created these bag stands and ball containers designs and breathed life into his sketches. It’s really great as a client to have that much control over the design and production. It’s the beauty of a custom shop like us.

We made more for their range setup, but this is what I was able to take a photo of before our speedy shipping department crated the order. 

Below are the bag stands that we’ve recently made for The Plantation Club and Madison Club. 

This is the club cleaner that University of Louisville Athletics had us make.  

Here’s 2 different kinds of ball crates that we just made. The ball crates are our answer to the applecrate and t hey work so much better.

 

We’re happy to have the opportunity to work with Top Golf on their trash can enclosures and benches. 

This is the broken tee box that we made for Redrock Country Club. 

Our specialty is custom driving range accessories, but we have such a good relationship with our clients that they continuously ask us to also help with tournament awards. Here’s what we’ve made the last couple of weeks. 

We also have to share the trail signs that we made this week for Summit Club in Las Vegas (Discovery Land Co. course). These small signs (12″x12″) will look great on their trails and give needed info to those who walk their trails. 

Last up are the BEARDOWN tee markers (re-order) that we made for University of Arizona. I love the look of these, don’t you? 

 

Thanks everyone for reading our blog!! 

5 Questions to Ask When Buying New Bag Stands

by

There used to be the day where your members would lean a full-sized golf bag against a bag stand on the driving range. Times have changed. Now they leave the bag in the cart and take a handful clubs and rest them against the stand. The bag stand now is really a club stand where a water bottle, and maybe a cellphone is resting, as well as other necessities that are provided for the player; tees, alignments and a clean towel. The stand also keeps the range looking organized and gives the players a good personal space to practice.

So, what are some questions that you should be asking before making the investment into updating the stands on your driving range? Here are 5 things that we’ve have put together that you should consider.

 

Material is the most important thing to think about because whatever you purchase, you want it to last more than a few years… Metal is the best choice because it will last the longest (7-10 year) (just say ‘no’ to plastic or wood). There’s very little maintenance involved (no staining). We choose to use only metal not because we don’t like the look of wood new, but because wood weathers and doesn’t look good for long.

Powder Coat -The type of powder coat that you pick determines how long your stands will last without refurbishing. It’s good to pick a textured powder coat that’s scratch resistant and one that we have an exact match for touch up paint. There are several powder coats that we can provide an aerosol can that you do a quick spray on a scratch. We have different shades of brown to give a wood-like look. The best seller is BR47 and is a semi-texture powder coat.

Weight -If you move the stands daily a great length you might want to consider a lighter weight bag stand or if you absolutely love the A-frame twisted metal, then you can move them around easily with dollies. Square tube will be lighter than twisted metal. If you only move the stands a short distance to mow, then any style/tubing works.

Storage -If you store the stands in a small cart barn in the winter, you might want to consider a bag stand that stacks well (upright bag stands & kick plate styles). If you have more room, then A-frame stands work great.

Cleaning -With RHI bag stands, we recommend wiping them down with a soft cloth. If there’s ever water stains, a cloth with a little denatured alcohol will work great or a gentle cleaner such as Goof Off Wipes. Like anything that you want to last, it’s important to take care of them by cleaning regularly.

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

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. 

Driving & Practice Range Ideas

Let’s start today’s blog with the ball crates that we made for Mountainbrook Country Club. The bottom has a ramp inside to lean the balls towards the opening.

The ball boxes that we make are easy for players to use. Below is a photo of why we personally don’t like use the other crates out there on the market (balls got stuck on this one).

We’ve shown the half barrel ball baskets off on our website/blog before, but the ones that we made for Victory Ranch in Utah have corners for tees. It’s a nice added touch.

 

 

Driving Range/Amenities Boxes: Usually we’re asked to build these about 42″wide by 20″, which gives a significant amount of storage space for towels, bags of balls, and trinkets. The Northwood Club in Dallas, Texas wanted smaller versions for their 1st tee and range (28″ wide to 30″wide). These compact versions of our range boxes are perfect for storage, but without taking up a lot of room. Northwood also has the large version that we made last Fall. 

 

Next, for driving range accessories is the bag stand that we made for Troon North in AZ, the club cleaner & range dividers for Lookout Mountain Club. 

The wine barrel range targets have been getting quite a few orders in the last couple of years. Usually courses want to brand them with their logo, but in this case the client wanted to keep it simplistic. 

That’s all for today, be sure to keep looking at our galleries since we update them weekly. Thanks!!!

Getting Ready for Spring at RHI Golf

by

While you may have been at the PGA Show in Orlando, we stayed back and got as many custom projects out the door as possible!

 

We sent out tee markers for TaylorMade to use on Demo Day at the show on Tuesday. 

 

We also made tee markers for Teton Springs and re-orders for Westin Kierland. 

Lastly, for tee markers made sets for GSGA. I like how nice their logo stands out against the white powder coat. 

For tournament awards, we made a re-order for University of Missouri and shootout awards for Sunset Country Club. 

Louisville Country Club will soon be getting their bag stands, club cleaners, and half barrel ball baskets. I love the green that they chose; it’s GN220 and has a durable hammer texture to it, so it won’t scratch easily.  It’s a great powder coat for driving range furniture. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next up is the custom easel that we made for PGA West. 

 

That’s all to share for now. We have several big projects in the works that we’ll soon be sharing. Have a great weekend!
