How to make measurement markers show up, and at scale, in a large scene?

So I'm having an issue creating a simple driving range (to scale). I want to make yard lines denoting the distance every 10 yards over a 350 yard distance. I also need text at every yard line denoting the distance as well. The issue is, the camera is clipping in both the view-port and game mode from only a few yards away. From an art perspective how should I go about resolving this?

I tried making materials for projections and decals to place on the terrain, but you still can't see them from further than a few yards...

EDIT: Immediately after posting I came across a work around. Using 3D text I'm able to get yard markers/numbers to show up from any distance. Also, by making the yard lines a text (literally typed in underscore "___")I was able to get the lines to show up as well.

I feel like this is a messy shortcut so hopefully someone may have some insight. (Plus there's a slight parallax with the 3D text)
