Jeff grew up in Northern California, including the San Francisco area and the Napa Valley area. He was introduced to golf by his father and grandfather at the age of 4. He played every Sunday morning with his father at a small 9 hole public golf course. He would later spend weeks at a time in the summer, staying at his grandparents’ home in Clear Lake, where they lived on a golf course.

His love of the game would eventually lead him on a lifelong journey in the golf business, beginning with an opportunity to be mentored by Jim Lucius, one of the most respected professionals in golf. Jeff currently serves as Vice President of the Hilton Head Chapter, Carolinas Section, of the PGA. Jeff and his wife, Dr. Lorrie, made Bluffton and the Low Country their home in 2004. They have two children; Andrew, 11 and Garrett, 8.

Bryan Haught, Assistant Golf Professional, comes to Callawassie from South Carolina National where he served as the Head Golf Professional from 2005-2007.  Bryan, originally from Beaufort, SC, currently serves as the Director of the Beaufort Junior Golf Association and has done so for the past five years. 

Jeff and Bryan are both accomplished teachers with extensive experience in tournament operations and we are very pleased and fortunate to have them on staff at the Callawassie Island Club.
