Updating your range in 2020

by

Start with what’s essential when updating your range or course accessories… 

The Summer of 2020 might not be the time that your club is wanting to update the entire driving range, especially if you are in the North or East Coast. But you still need things… COVID-19 did not change the fact that your recycled plastic bag stands aren’t holding up to the weather and need to be replaced badly…
It’s a good idea to write down EVERYTHING that needs to be updated on the course and the range on a piece of paper. Then prioritize it and write a new list for 2020 with the ‘must haves’ and then the ‘would like to haves’ for 2021. This advice could really apply to personal life as well as a way of cutting spending and focusing on what matters most in life instead of the distractions…
At RHI Golf we’re seeing that many projects are being done in multiple steps. For example, some of our clients are ordering bags stands only instead of the range dividers, club cleaners, ball crates, etc. Or maybe all of the signage needs to be updated, but for now the most important thing is to get signs out there so people aren’t riding their rvs or walking their dogs where they potentially could be hit by golf balls, so a partial signage order is placed with the intention that more signs will be ordered in the near future. There are still full range orders being placed and capital funds are being released more and more. But don’t stress if there’s pressure to keep spending to a minimum. So start with the essentials and go from there. Not everything has to be done all at once. Breathe. You got this.

Here’s a look at some of the driving range & course supplies that have been going out our doors lately. 

This is the mini-cart that we made for Tributary Club in Driggs, Idaho. Usually we made large carts, but sometimes a little smaller is just right!!

Range Dividers for Lubbock Country Club. We also made bag stands and trash can enclosures for them, but with their tree logo. For the dividers, we wanted to mix it up a little. 

These are the clean & simple yardage markers that we made for Soule Park Golf Course in California. 

At Champions Retreat we made them 5 sets of tee markers for their course in Georgia. The tee markers are naturally rusted steel with a low-gloss clear coat over the logos’ powder coat. They’re going for a low-key rustic look. Accomplished!!!

We did a few essential signs for Blackstone Country Club. 

As states start to re-open, tournaments are going back on the calender (below are a few trophies). 

Blog: Tee Markers & Tournament Supplies

by

Let’s start today’s blog with tee markers. We make custom markers for everyday use, and ones specifically for tournaments. We made four sets for Menlo Country Club, and sets for TPC Colorado. We also made markers for the Illinois Junior Golf Association, and Siox Falls Men’s Golf Club. We also sent demo tee markers for Westwood Golf Club in Texas (they went with the black/white version). 

Tournament Supplies —

Here’s the tournament cases that we made for a few of our clients. The red one (Essex Country Club) is our new small starters box that we’re making now. 

Below are the proximity markers that we sent out. 

Here’s a peak at some of the trophies that we’ve made lately.

We’ve asked quite a bit lately for these custom barrel trophies. It’s such a nice award to win and fits the wine theme for some of our vineyard area courses. 

 

Below are the plaques that we made for a local course, Gozzer Ranch. The lake is our Lake Coeur d’alene. 

Here’s a couple of perpetual boards that we’ve done recently. 

 

That’s all for this week’s blog!

 

Driving & Practice Range Ideas

by

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 with Driving Range Supplies

by

We won’t be at the 2018 PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando this month, but we’d love to set up a time to talk over the phone about your next project!

Contact us at 208.635.5203 Ext 102 or info@rhigolf.com 

 

Here at RHI Headquarters it may be snowing outside and freezing, but we’re in-gear for Spring Opening Day. Our clients are ordering early, and we’re getting their custom projects out the door! We’re going to give you the ‘rundown’ today on what we’ve been building lately so that you can get inspiration and then get started with us on the design/order process. 

Talking Rock put in an order for the barrel ball buckets. These hold about 150 balls and give their driving range a unique presentation that traditional ball pyramids just don’t give..

The Country Club at Winter Haven was our ‘guinea pig’ with our new ball tray design. Yesterday, I received at email from our contact there, and Josh said that they really like these trays. As a custom shop, we make things for the ‘first time’ weekly. It keeps things creative and interesting. 

Another custom project that we were asked to do was for San Jose CC. We built a custom sand & seed table with sections for amenities like tees, divot repair tools, ball marks, etc. Then we did a divot mix box for Pine Canyon CC. 

 

 We shipped out mini-flags for Teton Springs yesterday, and then some for Vasari last week. 

 

Now for Golf Course Signage,  Mirabel had us make new pool signs for them. They turned out nice in my humble opinion..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here’s the driving range clock sign that we did for Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club, and the parking log sign that we did for Troon Country Club (show without the post). 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here’s the trash enclosure, yardage sign and driving range ALL IN ONE COMBO that Fiddler’s Elbow had us custom design for them. This was produced from a sketch that they emailed us..

 

 

We’re starting on the Roaring Forks Club driving range project, but here’s a sneak peak at one of their products; club cleaners. They are using a textured hammer color called ‘Bronze Hammer’. It’s a new powder coat that we’ve been using for a couple of clubs, and it looks really nice..

Even though it’s January NOW IS THE TIME to start putting in your trophy orders if you can for Spring and Summer. It’s good having your trophies early because 1) less stress 2) trophies can create a buzz if you share a photo of it to your members and/or have the champion awards in the golf shop for display.. Here’s a look at the trophies that we made for The Crosby Club, Southern Dunes and a Hole-in-One award. 

 

More tournament supplies that came out this past week were the proximity markers for Annandale Club + starter boxes & trays for Capital City. 

Thanks for reading our blog. The SPRING SEASON IS COMING, so there will be much more to post very soon!!

 

Northwood Club Project

by

We recently built the driving accessories for Northwood Club in Dallas, Texas. We worked closely with their team to design custom made driving range accessories. Every detail was carefully thought out to give the best presentation possible. Notice how each product has a beautiful copper vein powder coat and symbols from their logo. 

Here’s what their driving range looks like this month with their new rhi setup. 

 

We designed the bagstands so that the could use the trays for a bottle of water, alignment rods, tees and either a towel or a range finder.

This driving range sign has removable flags on it in case there’s any changes down the road. 

Here’s an up-close photo of their range dividers. Because there’s a small space on the dividers, the course name often works better than the icon logo. 

Because of how much activity is on their driving range, we built their ball staging baskets larger than we do on average. We’re custom, so we’re happy to work with the dimensions that you think would work best at your particular facility. 

Broken tee boxes continue with the presentation, so we kept a high-level of detail on these for Northwood Club. 

Below is the customer designed scorecard box/amenity box. It’s 100% custom, and perfect for their needs. 

Then there’s the beverage caddie. In this case, we all felt that a ball cap looked better than adding a logo. Sometimes simple is best. It continues the presentation with the same coloring as the other products. 

Here’s a couple of photos of their driving range box that we took at our shop. Half of its designed for towels, while the other half has custom dividers for amenities that they need on hand like bug spray, sun screen, athletic tape, aspirin, etc. 

This Amenity Table actually comes from our driving range cart designs, but our customer didn’t need the wheels or cooler so we designed their product with just the ‘bed’ portion. 

Lastly, is their bag drops, which they call their ‘Sunday Bag Rack’. 

We’re excited to be in the works of another custom build for them. They have a beautiful course, and we’re happy to have had the opportunity to build their range accessories and signs. 

Consistent Presentation is Key

by

When you really see the difference in presentation is when you’re accessories are consistent in colors, style and logos.

Here’s a look at how Trinity Forest is giving their customers the best possible presentation. 

This week we made a range box that stemmed from a design we created 3 years ago that was modeled off a treasure chest design (see below). The head pro at TF, took that design as inspiration for his one-of-a-kind amenity box. He added a divot bottle rack so that the space was utilized fully. 

 

We added pneumatic hinges on after I took this photo. 

We also shipped their scorecard box this week. 

Below are a couple other orders that we’ve made for them in the past year or so. Notice how everything just fits together in appearance.


Driving Range Update Ideas & More

by

Hi. Today let’s look at a couple of projects that we’ve been working with.

First, is the Mountaintop Lake & Golf Club PROJECT. We worked closely with the head pro there on every detail of the new product line up. Let’s start with the custom amenity carts that Fox designed with us. 

This is the cart that together we designed for his North End, which is the self-service side. We wanted to keep everything covered in case of rain. There’s the insulated cooler, and then the large storage area in the bottom. Because of the shape of the build, we added pneumatic wheels to the end.

On their South End, we designed an amenity cart that was larger. Rain was still a concern, so we build 2 removable lid sections, as well as a bracket on the side so that they could attach an umbrella on if they wanted to. There’s an insulated cooler on this one too. 

For their bag stands, we made the kickplate bag stand for their self-service end, and something completely different for their full-service side. The full service stand holds clubs at an angle. 

Also, on the driving range, we made ball corrals with weld bumps to keep the balls from being stuck in the corners. 

For signage, we made a driving range sign in a style that we call the ‘range tree.’

Here’s the other signs that we made for Mountaintop:


Mountaintop wanted to keep with the same color theme on their tee markers. We made 2 styles, and direction tee markers. 

The 2nd course that we’re showing off today is the Part 2 Project for Green Brook Country Club in New Jersey. 

First, we made their insulated coolers. They chose a 2-toned gray powder coat that has 2 shades of gray. 

We’ve made driving range clock signs for them before, but they wanted another style with a movable x base. for their driving range. 

Usually, we stick with 1 color scheme, but their course has 2 different club color schemes. This is the club cleaning station that we made. We still kept the logo consistent like on everything else that we’ve made for them. 

Here’s their starter’s tray. We designed it specifically to fit their scorecards. We make starter boxes with lids and without in different styles and layouts. 

You can’t see it in this photo, but there’s stakes welded behind the circle plate so that the sign can be inserted into the ground. It’s a low key directional sign. 

We also made trash can enclosures. The top portion is removable so that staff can lift it and take out the trash. There’s handles on the sides of the shell to make it easy to move.

Lastly, this style of podium is our slanted top style. I really like this one because it as top storage (top in hinged) and back storage with shelves.  You can choose casters as an add-on.

We’ll be sharing more projects soon! If you have photos of your RHI products, you’re welcome to email it to your RHI sales team. We love seeing the accessories at the facilities.
