Meet Assistant Daniel McGahee and Week of July 31st Results
This summer we have a new face in the Pro Shop, Assistant Golf Professional, Daniel McGahee. Daniel is a native of St. Simons Island, Georgia. He grew up surrounded by golf as that area is quite the hotbed for golf and PGA golf professionals. His home course was Sea Palms Golf Club on St. Simons.
Daniel attended Valdosta State College in Georgia, majoring in business. After graduation he decided to attend the Pro Golfers Career College on Hilton Head Island to combine his business education with golf. His first assistant golf position was at Oyster Reef Golf Club on Hilton Head.
In 2015 he headed back to St. Simons Island for a position at his home course of Sea Palms. In 2021 he moved to the Frederica Golf Club, a private club on St. Simons and home to many PGA professionals including Brian Harmon, the current Open Champion. Daniel is looking forward to seeing the Claret Jug in person when he returns to Georgia at the end of our season.
Daniel also has roots in the New England area as his mother’s family was from New Hampshire. Their family vacationed on Maine’s Drakes Island (near Wells) several times over the years.
When asked what he thought of Kebo he replied “I love it, it looks like it belongs here”. Welcome to Kebo Daniel!
