New This Week!

December 13, 2012 by Joy Ball

Been a little while since I’ve posted some of the projects we’ve been working on, I’ve been busy getting our new brochure put together and our new stock item online store up and running…

First up are these tee markers that we did for Ball State University. These were a lot of fun and turned out great!

Next were a bunch of different Proximity Markers and KP signs (or Tee Announcements, whatever you want to call them :) )

Darien CC:

Floridian:

The Cliffs:

And some great new ones (including the new-style closest to the pin Proximity Marker) for Ocean Reef Club

We had a request for a “shadow box” type presentation for a hole in one award. There were places for the lucky ball, the scorecard, and a photo…

Some trophies for the Tumble Creek Cup:

New Tee Markers for Shorehaven…

Some replacement signs to go on the tee signs at Quintero out of polished Stainless Steel – will look great for a long time!

And finally new Tee Monument signs for Southern Dunes, which is owned by the Ak-Chin nation of Native Americans. Each sign contains the yardage to the hole from the tee box and other information, but then also the Ak-Chin name for the hole, as well as a translation into English. These signs were a lot of fun! They then took each of these signs and mounted them on custom brick/masonry walls and planter beds that they added at each hole. I’m sure they look amazing.

I guess that’s everything for now. There’s a lot of new stuff in progress that I hope we’ll get at least one more post up yet this year!

Trophies, Bag Stands and Miniflags!

October 22, 2012 by Joy Ball

Looks like it’s been a couple weeks since I updated this, but here are some of the things we’ve been working on.

First up are some great trophies that we did for Salishan. These start out as a piece of steel pipe that Will works his magic on until they look like old tree stumps. They’re heavy, but look amazing! We did individual trophies for the winners, and then some large perpetual trophies that they can add the winners’ names to each year.

Then we did bag stands for Whisper Rock’s practice range. This was a new design for us that they requested, but it seems sturdy, strong, looks great and is cost effective!

Here are some putting green miniflags for Quintero. I love this copper vein powdercoating!

Here is a sign for one of the private rooms at Hayden Lake CC. There is a place where the club can slide in a nametag for the person/group who has the room reserved.

Thanks again for a great summer season! Hope everyone has a good week.

In the shop last week…

September 24, 2012 by Joy Ball

Here are a few of the things we’ve shipped in the last week…

First up are some additional signs for Wykygyl Country Club. They wanted some custom range signage that they could swap the numbers on to indicate when the practice facility was scheduled to close each night. They also wanted a sign to designate an area for instruction only.

Next we have a new bag stand design for Whisper Rock.

Another Arizona course, Firerock, had some of our first miniflags that we built. After three years of hard use, the finish needed some touching up. It’s easy and cost-effective for us to re-powdercoat our products and they are as good as new – ready for several more years of service!

The Grove orderd closest to the pin and proximity markers…

We did a perpetual plaque for a Ladies Club Championship at Loch Nairn.

Finally, one or our sales reps asked for a point of sale display for Bodega Harbor with the course logo and co-branded with the Antigua logo.

Hope everyone has a good week! Thanks for helping us have a great summer!

Starting to look like Fall is here…

August 24, 2012 by Joy Ball

Not sure if Fall is really here yet, but the temps have finally dropped from the 90’s to the 70’s and the fair is in town, so it feels like Fall is just around the corner. In addition to still pounding through Antigua displays, here are a few more projects we’ve had around the shop this week…

First up is a ‘Mini-Monument’ for Westchester Country Club in New York. They host a PGA Tour event, and wanted a large monument that they could put plaques on with the winner’s names, etc. We’ve been discussing a large 6′ tall monument with them, and they wanted to see a scaled down version to see how it’s going to look. At this point, we may change up the colors a little bit, but other than that – here is a little 2′ tall version.

Next we built a set of tee markers for the golf team at Santa Clara University. Hopefully, we’ll get to do the rest of the West Coast Conference… :)

Here’s a mammoth entry sign for the new Rock Creek – Idaho course. It might look like one of our standard signs, but this has a 3″ tube post and the sign itself is 3’x3′.

We did a couple practice range clock signs for the Philadelphia section of the PGA:

And a couple different tournament awards. First we have another local charity hosting an event for the Gleason Project. They asked for an award plaque similar to what we did on the earlier trophies. Then San Luis Obispo asked for some replicas of their tournament tee markers that were slightly modified so that they could be mounted on a wooden trophy base that they were building. Great idea!

Have a great weekend!

It’s time for the Olympics…

August 3, 2012 by Joy Ball

Congrats to all of the American athletes who are doing their best, and doing such a great job representing our country. In between watching the Games, here are a few of the things we’ve been working on lately.

First up are some great new range accessories for the new course at Rock Creek – Idaho. They wanted some simple, rustic, economical bag stands and a sand and seed bottle holder. I think this ‘tree’ design for the sand and seed turned out great.

We had a golf course designer ask for some custom miniflags for his personal putting green with the logos of some of the courses he’s worked on.

The folks in Dunlap, Iowa just keep selling corporate sponsorships for each hole on their course. What a great way to advertise your local businesses.

Here’s a large ‘Proxy” style sign. It’s similar to a giant proximity marker. The cards can slide in and out and have interchangeable messages. This one was for PGA West.

Here’s a trophy for Tetherow’s Celidh Ladies Member Guest. A ‘Celidh’ is an Irish word for a dance/party. I had to look it up…

Finally, here are some shots of some trophies we just finished for the Kinnickinnick Cup at Gozzer Ranch. These started out as smooth pieces of steel pipe, but Will managed to weld them up so they looked like old tree stumps. They look great. It takes a lot of skill to weld that ‘poorly’. :)

That’s it for now. Have a great weekend, and go Team USA!

It’s been a busy month!

June 29, 2012 by Joy Ball

Off to a great summer so far. Here are a few of the things that we finished up this week.

First up is a great set of practice facility accessories for the guys over at Tetherow. They ordered these clock signs, a complete set of yardage signs (20-70), and a hanging chalkboard for writing messages, etc. on.

Here are a set of KP signs for Salish Cliffs. They had a set of proximity markers to go with them (the KP signs and the prox mkrs make a great team together!), but they got boxed up before I was able to get pictures…

Still turning out trophies this year. Here are some gold and black ones for Leewood Country Club. This is a new gold color, with a great metallic look.

We did another couple holes worth of corporate sponsor tee markers for the great folks at Dunlap Golf Club. I think we’ve got 7 of their 18 holes covered so far…

Dos Lagos Golf Club had us do a couple custom signs for them. This sign goes on their 9th tee, and includes a phone number and has an insert where they can slide a menu in behind protective plexiglass. Players can look at the menu, call the number, and order food that will be ready when they make the turn. Great idea! (oops, just looked closer at the picture, looks like we had the wrong sign top on the wrong post. No problem, all of our signs/posts/stands are easily interchangeable so you can move them around your facility…)

Range Accessories, Tournament ideas and Tee Markers

June 21, 2012 by Joy Ball

Here are a few of the things from around the shop this week.

In addition to the Gleason Event trophies that I posted earlier, they asked for some small, polished aluminum desk pieces that they could give as gifts to volunteers and sponsors.

The Dunlap Golf Club in Dunlap, Iowa had a great idea and is selling corporate sponsorships for each hole on thier course. We are creating custom tee markers for each hole with their sponsor’s logo. We’ve done 4 different holes so far, here are the latest two.

Here are a couple range accessories for the folks over at Tumble Creek. This is a great new A-frame bag stand design that looks great and is cost-effective. They also wanted a custom water-bucket that their outside service guys could use to clean clubs from cart to cart.

It’s been a great summer so far, and it’s only getting busier! Let us know if we can help with any of your custom course needs!
