From managing music stars to shepherding golfers on the mountain! ⛳️
For those who haven’t had the pleasure of meeting him yet, meet Ron Stuve, our official Starter at The Course at Sewanee.
Ron joined our crew in the Spring of 2026 and stepped into this brand-new role in July. A native Iowan, passionate golfer, dad, and retired music executive, Ron has beautifully traded a career of shepherding songwriters and artists for shepherding golfers around our course.
"As the starter I am constantly meeting new people, hearing their stories and connecting through our shared passion... The Course at Sewanee is a very special place, beautiful, challenging and rewarding. Shooting a good score here is a real accomplishment!” — Ron Stuve
Next time you’re gearing up to tee off, make sure to say hello to Ron, share a quick story, and get a warm Sewanee send-off. We are incredibly proud to have him guiding our players.
