Thomas lands Club Stroke prize
A one over par front nine laid the foundations for an excellent 63nett victory for Thomas Murray in the Sunday Club Stroke competition.
The 11-handicapper dropped shots at the first, fifth and ninth holes, but birdies at the fourth and eighth saw him just that one shot over at the turn. A double bogey seven at the tenth followed and he dropped another shot at the 13th but recovered some ground with a brilliant birdie three at the 16th. He could even afford to drop a shot at the final hole to leave him three over on the return trek and winning with a nett 63.
Kieran Grimley, enjoying a rich vein of form recently, was just one shot adrift on nett 64 after his round of two over front and two over back nine.
Keith Hamilton's double bogey six at the the 18th ultimately cost him the top prize and indeed the runners up prize, the 13-handicapper returning a nett 64 also and losing out on countback.
Newcomer Philip Devlin opened his winning account at the club with a nett 65 and better back nine securing him fourth prize on the day. And Gary McCourt, playing of a nine handicap, claimed the fifth and final prize with a nett 65 also.

William leads home youthful winners
It was youth to the fore in County Armagh Golf Club's Open Stableford competition on Saturday (July 30) as William White ran up an excellent winning score of 43 points to claim the honours
Shea Brady, an eight handicapper, impressively also mastered the blustery conditions to claim second prize with 42 points.
Just three over par after nine holes, 12-handicapper William had 20 points on his card at the turn, and added a further 23 to his tally over the back nine where he surprisingly finished with a double bogey six for just a point.
Shea was equally on top-scoring form and after opening with a birdie three at the first, enjoyed a steady round with further birdies at 11 and 15 for his round two over par and 42 points.
In Category 1, Andrew McTaggart secured first prize with 41 points - a steady round indeed from the 12 handicapper. And Michael Cullen picked up runners up prize with 40 points.
Cathal Cullen's 42 points - 22 front nine and 20 back nine - took the honours in Category 2 on countback from Andrew Dunwoody who also returned 42 points, ultimately giving way to Cathal after a double bogey six at the 17th hole.
In Category 3 Tim Teehan was the man on form and picked up first prize with 41 points. G Cullen's 39 points earned him the runners up prize.
And the Best Gross score of the day was returned by Kieran Donnelly.

Paddy's a stableford winner
PADDY Darragh battled difficult conditions to win the club stableford compeitition on Sunday with an impressive 43 points.
Steady scoring, including a birdie three at the par four fourth hole, amassed 23 points from the front nine, and with a sprinkling of pars, bogeys and double bogey at the last hole he added a further 23 points for a grand and winning total 43points.
J Sheehan was just a point behind him after nine holes - on 22 - and like Paddy with a double bogey at the last, added a further 20 points for his 42 and runners up prize.
D Coulter's par at the 18th ironically secured him 23 points over the back nine holes, but he had just 18points from the front nine and had to settle for third prize on the day.
Meanwhile, steady as ever, Brendan Toner deservedly picked up fourth prize with 41 points.

Andrew waves off opposition
Andrew Millar's distinctive long locks of hair didn't in anyway impede the young man on his way to victory in the Club Stroke competition last week-end.
The Killylea lad, playing off a handicap of eight, shot a superb nett 63 to claim the prize. He opened his round with a bridie no less, and the first shot he dropped was on the ninth. A string of pars followed and but for one further dropped shot at the 16th hole it would have been a perfect round.
Art McCrory shot one of his best rounds of the season, a nett 64 to claim the runners up prize. But the handicap cut was to cost him dearly in his next Gray Cup match klater in teh week where he made his exit.
Jarlath McReynolds led the low handicappers home in Category 1 with a nett 64. Three under par after nine holes he slipped up on 12, 16 and 18 where he had a double bogey six. Tom Fox was runner up in the category with a nett 66, and collected some Two's money on the way with a bridie at the seventh hole.
Kyle Wilson's nett 67 won him Category 2 with D (David or Damien!) Grimley runner up with a nett 68.
Charlie Johnston claimed first prize in Category 3 with a nett 67 and shared the winners enclosure with brother-in-law Norman Mallon on nett 69.
