Professional career In 2009, Weaver turned professional. Since 2010, Weaver has played mostly on the eGolf Professional Tour and had a successful first year.

He finished outside of the top 8 only once on Tour after May 2010. He also played two events on the PGA Tour in 2010: the Greenbrier Classic and the Wyndham Championship, where he tied for 41st. In 2011, he played in the Memorial Tournament, finishing T45. It was his third cut in ten career PGA Tour events.
In 2012, Weaver started his eGolf Tour season with two missed cuts. He won two events in the first half of the season and was the tour's money leader. He also became the quickest to earn $100,000 in a season.
In 2015, Weaver qualified for PGA Tour Canada with a T7 at the qualifying tournament. He won the first event of the season, the PC Financial Open.
