While building West Lake Park on UD a pop up suggested I create a tee sign using a specific program but I don’t recall how to download it or what it’s called. What I’ve done so far is sketch the hole on paper, take a pic, and post it. It looks too cheezy. Do you have any idea what I’m talking about?
Hi Cy,
Thanks for reaching out! It sounds like you may have seen a preview of a new caddy book functionality that our team is currently building. You will get another opportunity to build tee signs and a caddy book for future layouts, and we will keep you in the loop on any major updates. Cheers!

Standardized yet customizable computer generated tee signs will be a fantastic addition.

Am I understanding correctly that UDisc is going to offer tee signs? Will they include maps or just basic info? That would be fantastic if true. I manage 2 private courses but I’ve yet to create signs (with maps) due to a number of reasons. Cost is prohibitive to hire the design out. I’ve tried to make the tee signs myself but I haven’t found a free, user-friendly software.
Hi Zach! UDisc does not offer tee signs for each hole with maps or hole information. You can however feel free to download and print our sign to display near hole 1, which will encourage players to record their round through the UDisc app: Free UDisc Tee Sign
Supporting a design tool for creating hole-specific tee signs would be a really neat upgrade, which could potentially fit into a future development effort. We will keep you posted on that!

Hey Zach. I was able to create decent tee signs using microsoft publisher. I took a screen shot of each hole in udisc map manager, then pasted it into publisher. I then cropped and scaled the image, and drew on top of that satellite image. Had my local print shop print and laminate.
Those look great! I havent used Publisher but will give it a try. Really appreciate you sharing this.
This is basically what ive done but in Powerpoint. The problem is the low image quality when i save the image; all less than 1MB.
Not bad! I suspect working in Publisher will be much like working in PowerPoint. Main difference is tha PP is optimized for digital presentations, while Pub is optimized for print projects. Neither are ideal graphic design software, but are servicable. I suspect Publisher will allow for much better image resolution given its intended use/output vs PP
