A most wonderful match at the Glen between Mac and Bob and the two Boland Cup captains( who seemed to have put bitterness and glee aside). It was spoiled only by the usual Glen terrain and the bandstand. Prince would have killed for the cover of Purple Rain and we all would have supported his justifiable homicide plea. But back to the match...

1. Boring 5s all square.
2. Mac's 3putt bogey with a stroke beat Steve's 3putt bogey (he picked up before 4putting) and Chuck's 3putt 6. Nice lower pin placement. Steve's second was only 6feet away and his third was only 15feet away. 1up M&B

3. Strategic layup off the tee for Chuck and a wonderful pitch for par which won. All square.
4. Boring 5s. Chuck did manage to hit the green in regulation but ended up 2putting. All square.
5. Beautiful 5 net 4 for Chuck to win after everyone else had quit. 1up C&S.
6. Steve lips out for bird, Mac skirts the hole for net bird and Bob lips out for bird. Shithead winning captain Chuck sinks his bird to dredge up a hint of bitterness (but not from the losing captain) 2up C&S
7. Mac misses short birdie and ties Chuck. Steve last seen looking for his ball on 8 fairway. 2up C&S
8. Pars for Steve and Bob. 2up C&S
9. Stroke hole for Steve (and everyone else-almost). Bob channels some short hitting PGA player and hits driver 3/4 wedge to 3feet and makes it. 1up C&S

10. Pin 2feet from the front and everyone makes the mistake of flying to the green. Mac's 3putt 5 wins but it wasn't an easy three putt. All square.
11. Wonderful tee shot by Mac to tie Steve with pars. All square.
12. Pars by Steve and Bob. All square.
13. Stroke hole for Steve (and everyone else almost). There is an almost new ProV somewhere in the left hay with Steve's name on it. His play on his stroke holes had us offering him more but he graciously declined. He did mention that Rob wouldn't have. Bob hit a perfect drive-a perfect 6iron to 18feet directly under the hole- and a putt to 1foot. Chuck butchered his way to a 6 but wouldn't give Bob the putt. Still all square.
14. Hello Gervanator! Mac hits an incredible chip off a sidehill lie to 4feet and actually sinks it for net bird. 1up M&B
15. After lighting a smoke and getting the yardage from his machine, Chuck, in full concentration mode, hits his best shot of the day. Mac cannot find his perfect drive. It's no wonder. It is already on the green having been hit by Chuck. Bob and Steve both mishit to the green and make par. 1up M&B
16. Did I already say Hello Gervanator!? Perfect drive-perfect 6iron-perfect 2putt for net bird. Steve's 10foot birdie attempt was only 3feet short. 2up M&B
17. 3s by Bob and Steve close it. 2&1 for M&B

Chuck 41 on the front (off a 17) followed by 48. 89(net 72)
Steve 45 followed by 38. 83(net 73)
Mac 46 followed by 42! 88(net 67)
Bob 40 followed by 38 78(net 71) It was a wonderful, close and intense match- as is becoming the norm for the Waterfield.And another win for a Rangefinder deficient team.
