TURF TALK: Colten Beattie

Welcome Colten Beattie to The Oaks Course

Colten started playing golf when he was 12 years old, and instantly grew a passion for the game. His first job on a golf course was a cart attendant position at Butternut Creek Golf Course; the local course in Blairsville, Georgia. At 16, he made the switch to golf course maintenance, and knew right away that was his destiny. A Bachelor’s of Science graduate of the University of Georgia turfgrass management program, Colten brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise. Working internships at the UGA course, Colleton River Course and even Augusta National prepared him for Assistant Superintendent positions at Marietta Country Club and The Creek Club at Reynolds Plantation. Colten’s excited to be a part of the Oaks Course family. He recently remarked “ I am truly honored to be a part of this community of individuals who care deeply for the game of golf. I hope to take the knowledge I have gained through the years, and use it to enhance the member and guest experience at The Oaks Course.”
