DGA Disc Golf Tee Signs

Why Tee Signs?

... I am surrounded by many DG courses. I have found a site describing where the locations of the courses are, but once you get there, how do you know where to go? Where to start? ... Or do people just go and wing it?

A sign has rules and explains the game.
A sign indicates Front Nine, Back Nine, or a Tee placement.
Tee Signs are the map to the hole and give important information like the distance and par of the hole.
The signs point out the preferred flight path, hazards, out of bounds, roadways, etc.
Upgrade to Sponsorship Signs. Sponsor Signs are 11" x 17" and have two side panels that can be used for sponsor information as well as the tee information.

Disc Golf Courses need signs just as a road needs signs. The first time you want to drive from point A to point B, you use a map and street signs to find your way. Disc Golf is the same. In fact the first time you see a Disc Pole Hole you need an explanation of what it is, a chicken barbecue or what? A sign that says it's a Disc Golf course is a minimum requirement.

Remember, signs are for the beginners and people new to your course. Once you drive from point A to point B, you no longer need a map or street sign except as a reminder. On a roadway you may get lucky and find point B without a map, but more than likely you will become frustrated, go home and never try again. Every hole must have at least one tee sign and every Disc Golf Course a rules sign. Without signs the person who designed the course and his friends will be the only players.

Disc Golf Tee Signs

Disc Golf Courses need signs like a road needs signs.

Located at each tee, Tee Signs are the map to the hole. They give important information like the distance, par, the preferred flight path, hazards and out of bounds. Sponsorship Tee Signs have two panels, the first used for the tee information and the second for sponsorship or advertisement. Additionally, Rule signs, Front 9 Signs, Back 9 Signs, and Boundary Signs sign are available for courses.

For each hole, a tee provides a firm and level foundation to start from “tee off”. Tee pads need to be free of debris and provide sure footing. Tees are usually composed of poured concrete slabs, decomposed granite, or more recently dense rubber pads. Tee Pads need to be durable and resistant to weathering. Installing alternative Tee Pads for a given hole can significantly add to the challenge and fun of a hole.

About DGA Disc Golf Tee Signs

Circa 1975, LA County Parks and Recreation Director Seymour Greeben wanted signs that were compatible with other park usage. They needed to have a long life, not easily damaged by vandals, and briefly give the required information. We agreed and asked the park department to construct such a sign. They did and we copied it and put it into production. The frame and pipe are hot-dipped galvanized, welded steel construction. The steel sign plate has been replaced with Lexan.

Our Tee signs are pop riveted to the frame and are easily changed with a portable drill. We construct our signs to be vandal resistant with galvanized welded steel, the most acceptable treatment to park departments.

Why not wood? Remember, LA County Parks and Recreation Department designed our signs for maximum compatibility for the park system. Wood signs cost more to make, to maintain and to repair and don't last as long.
