Whew…What a day!
A bit of wind and some slick pins didn’t stop our eventual winner, Dustin Kleven (AKA @MustBeNice) from not only taking the title, Grand Master Chunk, but doing so by breaking par for his first time ever! He fired a 1 under, 71 en route to 44 Stableford points and nabbing the qualifying spot to the NIT in Jacksonville, FL.
Low scores were out there to be had. Marcus Chang aka @forembc dropped a 68 and the Low Gross Prize ($100 True Linkswear Gift Card), coming up just 3 Stableford points shy of Dustin. Our very own golfing nomad and his Airstream, @brett grabbed 3rd place from the Blues.
The white flight champ was my good buddy (and fellow chiropractor) Adam Jacobs @Chiroadam20 who shot 82 playing off 13 and securing 39 stableford points! Chiros actually secured the top 3 spots from the whites, with Dr. Zach Brantner aka @zforce taking second, and yours truly in third.
(PS. Quick Plug: Check out our Titleist Performance Institute Golf Workshop March 27th! “Move better to play better”!)

Closing Thoughts:
That 48 golfers on a given Sunday could raise that much for an awesome charity is astounding. Thanks so much to everyone. We hope this becomes an annual tradition, hosting the local NORCAL NIT Qualifier and raising funds for great orgs.

Giles ran around and snagged some high level pics of you. Check this link for seriously sick images. If you’d like to share yours, message them to the RACDG_NORCAL IG or send them to this email or post on the refuge Norcal NIT Thread.
