North West England 2015 OOM

Played Duffers tonight over at Mollington, The Oaks. A nice track that apparently had a bad reputation a few years back, but now is definitely heading in the right direction and worth a visit - IMO.

Duffers hit the ground running like a train and went 3 up from 3 (exactly the same as Matt at West Derby), but I managed to get my claws out and get back in to the game, remaining 2 down at the turn. Whenever I got close he turned the screw - probably teasing with me all evening.

Eventually I managed to claw it back to evens and nudge ahead with the finishing line in sight capitalising on 2 unfortunate errors by going 1 up on the 17th (island green) before he hit a great drive on the 18th only to find it wet as we walked over the crest of the hill and my mishit managed to stay on the hill.

Final scores on the doors was Duffers on 39 and Podge on 69.

Cheers duffers, great game, great attitude and a great guy for a pleasant evening stroll.
 
I fianlyl got my first game played this morning, Liverbirdie and myself played in the Mixed Open at Delamere Forest. It was a lovely morning when we set off at 8.24 but Peter was subconsciously still in bed and I won the first 4 holes, He did manage to get going eventually though and after 9 I was 2 up, and in the 4bbb we had 18 points when he won the 10th there was just one in it, but I came again and when I hit my tee shot to 3 feet on the 16th to 3 feet and calmly rolled in the putt it was a win for me by 4&2. Peter had the consolation of winning the last two including an excellent birdie 3 on the 17.
We also finished with 37 points in the competition, respectable but probably not in the prizes but you never know.

OOM points Me 67, Peter 37

Welcome to the new entrants.

Birchy, I've sent my £20, even though as last years winner I thought I would have got straight into the group stages.......not having to play the likes of San Marino Dave Mac.:whoo:
