It was a tough day in Northern Northamptonshire for The BP Seniors Team
Whilst up above it was Cloudless at ground level it wasn’t so much overcast as downcast. A disappointing day saw Oundle triumph 6 1/2 to 1 1/2.
For some the journey to Oundle had been slow with a very busy A1, for some the golf had been difficult on Oundle’s notoriously tricky nay quirky Back 9, for one of us the thought of climbing a tree to play his shot to the 15th Green was just too much. I wonder if I’ll get my ball back!
Nevertheless Keith and Pip rued missed opportunities, Neil and David came close and brilliantly David and Richard grabbed a Half, but it was left to Peerless Peter Hickman to grab the lead match by the neck, with excellent play between Holes 9 and 16 resulting in a 3 and 2 win.
Well played Oundle a deserved win. Peter Steele mastered the 9th to grab the wine for BP and Senior Veteran Peter Turner was nearest the 9th Pin for The Hosts. Peter and I had a lovely chat with Captain Colin Stanton and Peter Smith. Finally a Thank You those who stepped up to play, your support to The Team is greatly appreciated.
St Neots next Monday. Plenty of time for practise.
