The Revenge of the GDub!


You may recall that only last week the evil KDub chose the opportune setting of Cullen Golf Course as the ideal location to humiliate his honourable father, GDub the modest. Well, this morning he thought that the sunny weather would provide another suitable opportunity, but this time on his home turf at Buckpool Golf Course, where victory would surely be guaranteed. But he was wrong to think that his father was old and feeble, for GDub was ready to do battle and this time there could be only one winner!

In a situation very much similar to that in which King Arthur and Mordred found themselves, except with metal sticks and little white balls, as opposed to Broadswords and Chainmail, we set off on what might prove to be the final battle of the year. Because, I start at Uni in 2 weeks and it's £20 a pop for a round. We both started off terribly, but then I began to settle into my game and the evil KDub couldn't take the heat. His game went to shit on the Par 3 8th Hole where he carded an eleven, and after that he had little chance of overthrowing his father GDub the Impressive.

No pars for me this time, but a few opportunities which caught the rim of the hole, and although I took 5 strokes more than at Cullen, it must be pointed out that Buckpool is 1500 yards longer than Cullen at 6097 and 4597 yards respectively. Still, a 15 stroke victory and KDub was left to lick his wounds. I don't doubt he'll be back, but for now I can bask in my glorious conquest!
