Unsurprisingly I'll go for an Old Farts win. Why I hear you ask. Because us Old Farts aren't as long off the tee. A 250 yds drive, off line from a Whippersnapper, will be in the deep do-do's, where as the 210yd off line drive from the Oldies will be on the edge of the fairway... I'm not even bringing my driver. Played there a few times and know what happens to anything going astray.
Bring plenty of balls boys.
5-3 to the young 'un on the Saturday but a 9-7 win for the mature distinguished gentlemen on the Sunday.

Not a good sign for the Old Farts, if your maths is much to go by Hobbit. 12-12 draw you have predicted .:mmm:

i hate to say it but given the conditions i think the older guys with better course management and experience in bad conditions will come through, the young ones will be carving them all over the place.
id love to see the oldies get stiffed, but i doubt it.

Think the oldies experience and ( ball thieving ) will triumph in difficult conditions
Oh and copious bunkers shots and alcohol will be had by all!

All threads do say 'Woodhall', so if not interested don't read them !
Nice to see a bit of enthusiasm on the site.

Old Farts to win..... 
High h/caps so lots of shots
Probably playing off the short tees so they can still reach the greens
The smell of wee doesn't put them off
The wind/rain doesn't affect a 150yd drive like it does a 280 yarder
Their leathery skin doesn't feel the cold
They have inner strength from winning the war
They don't have any testosterone left so won't take any risks
They play 8 times per week since retiring and can shoot their h/cap with their eyes closed.
.......and they won't be hung over on Sunday as they're used to only 3hr power naps

I think the Auld Yins will win if the weather is bad.

And, embarrassingly, it took 3 attempts to put that score in for a 12-12 win to the Old Farts.

The youngsters aren't exactly inexperienced, with a substantial (more so in some cases) number of the team at 40 +. The youngsters too have some higher handicaps, but they are on the way down, not up.
But.
Where it could go astray is a lack of tactics. If we take our lead from our Captain, and go for every thing crap or bust, it could go horribly wrong. It is, apparently, the only way to play though.

Just got back in from a conditioning round in the driving rain and feeling good.
Yes I know our forum average 350yard drives may get into trouble, but we will still be on the green for 3 like the old farts as they are not carrying the drive 150 yards then getting the usual 80 yards of run....
I reckon we will take them to the cleaners on Saturday in the better-ball when we are getting away with our erratic driving, then hope we hold it together on Sunday.
I predict myself hitting the ground 12 inches behind the ball on the first tee and chunking it 50 yards seeing as Bob will be filming it.....
