HEAD GOLF PROFESSIONAL
Dear Member ,
It has certainly been a hot summer again this year . Fortunately , we are catching up on rainfall the early part of Summer did not bring us . I have been very impressed with our maintenance staff and the work they have accomplished on the irrigation project . We look forward to having the Deer Run Golf Course up and going during the month of October .
As we approach the season , I wanted to update you on the events coming up in October . We will be hosting the Men ’ s Interclub Finale on Monday , October 10th with an 8:30am shotgun on Turtle Run . The MGA will host a Member / Member event on October 13th and 14th . WGA has an Oktoberfest planned for October 18th and 19th . Webber International University will host a collegiate event October 16th-18th . On Saturday , October 22nd , Caring Hearts will host their annual charitable event . To round out the month , MGA will host a Couples event on October 28th .
I want to personally thank Andy Kesling . He has been a huge help to me during this transition . Since he was your golf professional here for many years , having his support has been much appreciated . Going forward in Golf operations , we will be making some minor changes . Our Demo Days will start in November . The first Demo Day will feature Callaway , TaylorMade and Ping on November 19th . I hope to feature more shirts this year from FootJoy , Puma and Bermuda Sands . I like to see a golf shop that has plenty in stock and a good selection for both men and women golfers . Also , I expect to bring Bridgestone golf balls into the shop this fall .
As most of you know , I began working at Sun ’ N Lake just a few weeks ago . I was the Head Golf Professional at River Greens for 19 years and received my PGA Class A card in May of 2009 . Last April , I was fortunate enough to compete in the PGA National Club Professional Championship . It was held at the Omni Barton Creek Golf Resort in Austin , Tx . I enjoy competing in North Florida PGA section events on the occasion , and in my free time , I spend it with my wife , Katie , and our 4 children : Amelia ( Mia ), Pierce , Finn , and Caroline . We are expecting our 5th child come mid-November , so we are excited for that special time .
I look forward to meeting all of you in the next coming months . Please don ’ t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns .
Best Regards ,
Jason Beatty

As far as tournament software and scoring , I do expect to utilize the Golf Genius software more this year .
