Wednesday's encounter at the Bowral Bowling Club almost looked over after three ends with Denman and McPhee taking a 5-0 lead.
It quickly turned however when Henshall and Staples scored six shots in two ends to go to the front, 6-5.
After 11 ends Henshall and Staples had gone further ahead, leading 13-9.
They missed the chance to build on their lead with some wayward shots and Denman and McPhee took advantage of this with a good overall performance to come away two-shot winners.
The beauty of bowls is the result can change in the last few ends so concentration is key right up to the last bowl.
