Saltford lose at Henbury

Saltford Stragglers lost their latest away game when they went down 4-1 at Henbury Golf Club.

The one bright note was that the only point scored by the visitors was when "young" debutants Peter Jeffreys and James Flew scored a convincing 6 and 5 win.

But Barry Buss and Chris Bowering lost 6 and 4 while Colin Meek and Colin Salvage lost 2 and 1 as did Dennis Payter and Brian Collings.

But the most incredible game was the first match out as Alan Burston and Chris Reeves looked well set to chalk up the first point of the game for Saltford when they went five up after 10 holes.

Yet the home pairing of David Daniels and Nick Chivers kept their nerve to turn things around to complete an astonishing comeback to win on the last green as Saltford missed a putt to square the game.

Saltford play Wells at home next Wednesday.
