Custom Golf Course Accessories
by Joy Ball
Hi, everyone. My name is Joy, and I will be writing RHI Golf’s blog. The guys have been busy in the shop, so let me show you what’s new.
Custom Awards: 1. Custom charitable trophy for Grennwich CC; 2. Member-Guest Trophy for Huntsmen Springs; 3. Custom Award for The Cliffs; 4. Tournament Award for Tumble Creek.
Tee Markers: 1. Tee Markers for the PGA Arkansas Section. We are having a great deal going on for tee markers designed like these PGA tee markers. You can pick any color or text cut out for these markers. If you are interested, just let us know (jball@rhigolf.com).
RHI Golf can design custom signs for your golf course, store or office. Custom Signs: 1. Golf Club Sign designed for Gozzer Ranch, a Name Sign, and a Par 3 Sign with the golf course’s logo on it. The Par 3 Sign can show today’s yardages with easy to read numbers.
1. Here is a Proximity Marker where the customer added part of their name to it. This proximity marker demonstrates how RHI Golf will design products specifically for you and make it look exactly how you want. 2. Unique custom Tee Sign made for Vaquero Club. 3. Custom golf Bag Stand with the golf course’s emblem on it. The bag stand serves a purpose, and looks great
RHI Golf Crew at work around the shop! These are the guys who make these great tournament accessories and range accessories.

Wow, we’ve been busy lately! Thank you for a great year, so far. Here are some pictures of the things we’ve shipped last week.
We’re obviously still in the middle of tournament season. Lots of trophies, awards and tournament gifts. First up is one of the coolest trophies we’ve built to date. It’s an old-school microphone for The Cliffs. They’re the same course that we built the barrels for earlier this year, so they’ve definitely let us get creative.
Then we have these awards for a tournament at Almaden Country Club. Each Flight Champion gets one of the smaller awards, and the Overall Champion gets the larger version…
We have these trophies for an tournament with Tulmar Technical Services:
And a trophy for a putting champion that takes place as part of a larger event.
Here are a couple gifts, a bag tag for Hayden, some bottle openers for Illahe Hills, and a Hole In One award plaque. The plaque has a place where they can mount their scorecard and a photo.
A few sets of tee markers, another set for hole sponsors at Dunlap Golf Course, some tee markers for Tuhaye, and we received an inquiry from a child care center that had built a small 3-hole course for kids. The animal tee markers were a lot of fun, I wish my school had a custom golf course when I was a kid…
We had a lot of different range signs. Some of them had clocks, others had chalkboards to write messages – some had clocks AND chalkboards. Several of them have sleeves for inserting numbers for range yardages. Others have inserts where a name sign or a custom message can be mounted and displayed. Let us know, and we can help design a sign that will meet any of your needs around the course or practice range.
And finally, a load of practice range bag stands for Castle Pines!
Have a great week, looks like Summer is finally on it’s way.

Summer is finally right around the corner and it’s obviously tournament season. I think everything I have to show this week is tournament related.
First up are a series of awards for a tournament sponsored by The Rib Crib (drool…). They did plaques for sponsors, mini-games like closest to the pin, and 2nd-4th place. First place winners got the small trophy, and they did one large trophy for the event Title Sponsor. We’ve been wandering around the shop just thinking “mmmm… Rib Crib….”
Then we did another set of these great awards for The Gleason Project charity event at Black Rock. They were a lot of fun this year, and instead of Black/White like we did last time they wanted Steve’s New Orleans Saints colors of Black and Gold.
The River Course had us do some of our custom ‘stumped’ trophies for their Men’s Inviational…
Spurwing in Boise wanted us to update their awards from last year.
The New Jersey and Philadelphia chapters of the PGA have an annual event called The Turnpike Matches. They had us create this perpetual award for their winners.
We had our usual assortment of Proximity Markers, Hole Announcement Signs, etc. which will greatly speed up your tournament – both during and after play.
And we did another set of Tournament tee markers for Sterling Bank.
Hope everyone’s events go smoothly and are a lot of fun!

We’re still running at full throttle, and here are some of things that went out this week. We’re doing a ton of trophies right now as everyone gets ready for their tournament season. Here’s a traveling cup to be used for the “Civil War” rivalry between Osage National and Old Kinderhook.
Also working on on-course signage. Here are some signs with interchangeable message plates for Wykagyl. There are multiple plates that hang on the same sign so that you can change the message from, for example, “Palm Beach Course” to “Course Closed”. We’ve used this same concept for Valet Open/Closed, Pin Location Signs, etc.
These are some Directional Signs for around the property at Whitemarsh. They plan to mount these onto some existing posts.
Some additional tee markers for Sterling Bank and putting green miniflags for Spurwing in Boise.
We’ve been extremley fortuante to have been chosen by Castle Pines to help them makeover their practice facility. Lots of different fixtures, furniture, etc., here are some from the first ‘wave’. We’ll be working on these for a few weeks yet.
Garbage Can Enclosures:
An Amenities station. There are several of these. They can be used for towels/sand and seed bottles, a catering/water station, etc. They can be built on a stationary stand or on rolling casters.
These are our first benches. Now I want one for my backyard!
Have a great Memorial Day weekend! We’re very thankful for those who have sacrificed so that we can all be free and happy!

It’s crazy, but Eastern Washington and North Idaho are currently tied with Pheonix, AZ as the hottest spot in the entire country. It’s currently in mid-80’s which is unseasonably hot for around here this time of year. Feels like summer, but I’m sure it’s only temporary.
For as crazy busy as we’ve been the last few weeks, I don’t have very many pictures to put up. I’m going to blame it on the idea that the guys have been too busy to stop and take pictures, and not that I forgot to charge the camera battery…
First up, a perpetual trophy for the “Discovery Cup” tournament at the Madison Club. The big star on top turned out amazing!
Then we have a couple different tournament contest items. Some proximity markers for The Dutch, and some cool two-colored A-frame announcement signs for Greate Bay. The cattails are gold, and the rest of the logo is green.
Finally, a set of tee markers for Carmel Valley Ranch. The colors are unusual, but I like it. At least it’s not just red, black and blue.
Have a great weekend!

Not sure what it is, but I have an almost uncontrollable urge to start hurling things around the shop like Donkey Kong. Oh yeah, I know what it is. These awesome barrell trophies that we just finished up for The Cliffs. Solid steel with a natural rust finish and hammered metal bands, these things turned out amazing!
Eagle Bend ordered some custom range spacers for between the stalls on their practice facility and a couple of large boxes that they can put bottle water in. These boxes are durable aluminum – so they won’t rust – and watertight. There is a drain plug on the side for when you need it.
Olympia Country Club ordered a full set of these tee markers. Thanks!
These yardage signs are for the Par 3 holes at LakeRidge. They can add numbers with the day’s yardages to really speed up play.
Finally, we have these proximity markers for Enger Park.
It’s Friday, with the best weather we’ve had yet this year. Plenty more to see next week! Have a great weekend!

It’s been an incredible spring, and I haven’t been able to update things as often as I should. A lot of stuff in process, but here’s a few of the things we’ve finished and shipped lately. Lot’s of awards, trophies and tournament accessories like proximity markers and contest signs.
First up are some Tee Markers and some unique gifts/awards for a charity golf event hosted by Clint Eastwood. They did a full set of event tee markers, and these great custom hitch plugs as awards. Neat and very original idea!
These trophies and awards for the Gallery Invitational turned out great. Very cool contrast between rust/textured base and the gloss black and silver…
Here’s a perpetual award plaque for our friend Randy Henry!
Proximity markers and contest announcement signs for the tee box. These are a great way to speed up tournament play and operations.
A Teaching Area Only sign for the Practice Range:
And the top for one of our bag drops. They plan to mount this onto some existing posts. We can do this top portion, or a full bag drop with a lower rack and durable mesh screen.
Thanks for your support, lots more to come in the next couple weeks!
