Tee Sign Art

[FredVegasDGC]

What started out as a introduction in to XCode has turned in to a kind of obsession. I have been planning on learning XCode so I could see if I can develop an iPhone app of our local club and courses. You don't realize how much artwork that includes.

It started out doing digital tee signs of Loriella park...

I basically took digital images of the actual tee signs at the course and cut out the hole layout and created a new look.


Then the obsession began to kick in and I did the 27 Hawk Hollow holes...

I used Google Earth to create a lot of these signs. John Biscoe let me know of any mistakes I may have made.

I ended up doing the Pratt Park signs. These I had to do from scratch. I ended up walking the course taking about 100 images of each hole. I also used a 360° image app which really helped.

Now comes the fun part. Creating the pages in the app software for each course. That will include an overall map and each tee sign with a small description of the best way to play the hole.


I was able to create really good course web pages for the Spotsy Club web site...

Those are pretty sweet looking

Very nice layout and easy to read. I assume by using GE you have a more realistic approximation then the usual generic depiction of "bunch of trees here." Looks like the start of a really nice app. I particularly like where you will include the best way to play the hole.

Great Job! Thanks for knocking numerous icebergs off of my decade old to-do list.

The sign are really terrific. I would love to see accomodations for the multiple basket dilemma though. As a traveling player, not knowing which basket is in play is frustrating.

If anyone out there has pics of a tee sign posts with bag hangers (Wooden Dowels through the post) can you reply with an image?

Pratt Park does not have tee signs and I am in the process of going through the parks & rec to get approval and possibly funds to have them made & installed. I need to show the P&R folks what I'm talking about.

Thanks

Not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for but here's some nice ones that are used at Beaver Ranch.
