YING AND JUNG

August 9, 2013 – 02:00 PM



A wonderful and exciting match between Wayne and Gord McD. and Mac and Bob highlighted by extraordinary skill and requests to Bob for referral to psychiatry.
We wished it could have gone on longer but we were already 'twilighting'.

1. Bob's birdie wins. 1up M&B
2 and 3 pushed with pars. Still 1up
4. Mac's first stroke hole and a net bird for the win. 2up M&B
5. Wayne's first stroke hole and a wonderful putt for net bird. 1up M&B
6. Gord and Wayne's net birds win. All square.
7. Wayne's 2putt from off the green beats Bob's 3putt. 1up W&G
8. Mac took only 4 from just short of the ladies tee so his 5 (net 4) won. All square
9. Boring pars. All square.

AND THEN IT HAPPENED- AT LEAST FOR A WHILE

10. Mac's bird (net eagle wins) 1upM&B
11. Gord's birdie wins. All square
12. Mac's birdie wins. 1up M&B
13. Gord's birdie wins. All square
14. Bob's chip-in birdie wins. 1up M&B
15. Mac, with a stroke, hits it to the rock. Bob, behind him, strategically asks him to hit first so that he might 'go for the green'. Bob hits 6iron safely over and wedge to get 5. Mac finds his ball in the hazard and puts both parts of his rescue club gently in his bag. Gord gets 5. Still 1up M&B
16. Group butchery but Gord's net 4 wins. All square
17. Mac, with a stroke, hits his second just short of the trap. Gord and Bob essentially gone. Wayne's second is far left down by the road. After waiting for Gord to extract his ball from the long shit between 17 and 18 ( do we need rangefinders for this?) Wayne hits the most incredible pitch to 2 1/2 feet. Mac hits a good one but misses the putt. Mac's 5 beats Wayne's 6. 1up M&B
18. Bob's boring par (drive into the hazard-sand wedge to the 200-rescue club near the 10th-60* to the green and 1putt) isn't good enough for Gord's two down the middle and chip from past the green and knee knocking par (net birdie) putt. If you want to stay awake just imagine Gord putting with his knees knocking. All square.

I have only highlighted the best on each hole. There was much angst out there but our respective partners were always there. Everyone netted below 70. Another great Waterfield . Mac and I feel most fortunate for the draw. /bob
