Most recently, Ryan transferred to Tatum Ranch in order to take on a similar role, returning the golf course’s playing conditions, specifically the Champion Bermuda greens there, to superior status. With his knowledge of Eagle agronomic practices and his ability to lead and communicate with staff, he was the logical choice to lend additional support to our course maintenance operations in Phoenix. Though Superintendent at Tatum Ranch, Ryan also supports the teams at Legend of Arrowhead, Arrowhead Country Club and The Golf Club at Stonecreek.
