Geeeeee Slow Greens again. 3 Good hard games today as Brian Certainly chose the right card (Not). 1st game against Ians Wangaratta Team. Was a good game which we could never get away from them and was never more than 3 shots between us the whole game. We were 20-19 up going into the last end and they were holding 1 shot and a drawn game before Ians last bowl. He played another spectacular bowl to get a 3 and we went down 20-22. Ian was the star of their team drawing very well and kept them in the game. 2nd game against Lindsay Ponting, Nigel Smith and Neville Jenkins. We stayed in the game until the last 2 ends. We were actually up 20-15 with a few ends to go but Neville played a couple of excellent bowls when needed and we went down 22-26 in the end. We had our share of luck and good bowls but once again should have won this game. 3rd game against Max Jeffrey side and we went down 15-20 and another close game.
Our problem today was tight bowls. Keith and My Bowls would not turn when needed on the slow green. Not so much mine as I was just a lead and tight bowls are ok for that but for skipping Keith needed something that drew dispute the fact he did draw some great shots throughout the day. Most people never played to their ability but the green speed was the main culprit.
Anyway other day tomorrow so see what the rain brings !!!!!!
