Custom Golf Course Accessories
It was great working with Suncadia on their driving range accessory project this season! Our shipping crew was shipping lightening fast and I didn’t get a chance to take photos of all of their products. So it was great when the Suncadia team sent a few.
Here’s the few that I took at RHI Golf HQs. Their logo pops so nicely against the brown semi-texture powder coat. Then again I am partial to yellow..
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. 
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.
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!!
First off are the 5 sets of tee markers that we made for The Meadows at Mystic Lake.
We also made tournament markers for an event held at the Lake Forest CC. Their event had a tournament logo and a sponsor logo. We thought about making a double sided tee marker, but after thinking about it, we all decided to do 18 with one logo and 18 of the other logo for a sleeker presentation.
Then we made A-frame tee markers for the Remission Foundation event. This is particularly a great style if you need to stack and store them (perfect for event markers).
We’ve made trophies for Eagle Bend for years, but this year they wanted to add-on tournament tee markers to ramp up the presentation.
For awards we made juniper tree trophies for Pronghorn, mammoths for Snowmass and cowboys for The Club at Olde Hawthorne. You can tell that we make a wide variety of awards.. Each one is designed for our particular client to fit what works for them best.
We also make perpetual boards, here’s one we shipped for Toscana.
On the range accessory front, let’s start with signs:
Then there’s insulated coolers like the ones that we did for Sonoma.
Also for water solutions, we built a metal version of a teak beverage station.
Last to share today is the custom bench that we made for Pronghorn.
Hi, everyone. No matter how much more time is left in your season, there’s still time to ‘wow’ your members.
First on the blog, are the bag stands that we did for Wolf Creek.
Next, are Riverside’s club cleaning stations. These units have handles on either side so that you can attach your own brush onto for the cleanest experience. Inside the stations are grates to help with the cleaning process.
To help with pace of play, we made these driving range clocks for Rolling Hills, Stone Briar & The Cliffs.
Need a place for your putters? Here’s a twisted metal putter stand with logo.
For signs, let’s start with Rockwind’s directional signs. Here’s just a couple of the sign package that we did.
Rockwind also did “Yardage to the Pins” signs that they’ll be mounting to boulders.
Then there’s The Cliffs par 3 tree. These have been a good seller in the last year.
We also made Spring Hill College’s in-ground yardage plates that we used their school colors for the color scheme.
Below are tee markers for The Albany, NCAC, Stanwich, & the monkeys are for a private tournament.
Lastly, the first set for Plantation CC is done, then there’s tee markers for Minnewaska Golf Club and Camp Courant.
Having a professional looking practice facility is a must in the golf course industry. Range dividers are an inexpensive way to freshen up your driving range. First to show are the range spacers for The National and Ponte Vedra Golf & Resort.
Also, for The National, the crew made 12″x 12″ A-frames for their Closest to the Pin and Longest Drives.
Having a consistent look with your property furnishings is important to give the best image at your private course. The RHI crew worked with Green Brook Country Club to do just this.
The 1st thing that we concentrated on was their large directional sign .
For their clock sign, we made a hanging clock sign that’s double sided.
Next, are their bag drops that each hold 4 bags per unit.
For the shag bag racks, we went away from the textured gray, and did a navy.
For tournaments, Green Brook has custom proximity markers, tee announcements, and a perpetual trophy.
Let’s start with Broadmoor Country Club’s tournament tee markers.
We’re known for our unique trophies for tournament prizes. We got extra creative this month with the 3D awards.
1) Pete Dye’s 3D coal carts on tracks for their flight winners. 2). The Bridges 3D bridge trophies. We etched the stone work on these to make them look as close as possible to their bridge at their course.
HillCrest has an oil derrick on their property, which explains the theme of their trophies. Everyone at RHI hq’s loves these. They turned out better than we could have hoped for and are sure to get an amazing response from the winners.
We have more trophies to show: 1) Wolf Creek’s overall champion trophies that we engraved their trees into the base. 2). Radley Run’s Revolution Flag trophies. 3). The Cliffs at Walnut Cove did plaques with stands for their Men’s Member-Guest awards.
Then there’s Detroit Country Club who we made trophies out of their logo. TPC Riverbend has given away crystal the last 14 years, but this year they gave dimensional skyline trophies (Big Easy skyline). These trophies will be something extra special for the winners.
Oakwood Country Club did leaf trophies for their Knickerbocker event and 3D acorn trophies for their Acorn Classic. Notice how we can make very different looking trophies so that each tournament can have it’s own identity.
That’s all we have for today!
