Traipsing aimlessly around IKEA. Wrestling glumly with garden weeds. Perching on a bar stool but wishing dearly to be somewhere else. These are perhaps just some of the ways in which County Armagh's male membership tried, and most likely failed, to cope with a rare golf-less Saturday on 1 September, when the Ladies' Armaghdale Cup took precedence.

Twenty-four hours later, then, 146 coiled-spring hopefuls were positively chomping at the bit to get back out on the fairways and stake their claim for September Medal glory. And alongside Adam Cromwell, Stephen Nugent, Keith Stewart, Brendan Arthurs and Andrew Conn, the name of Tomas McElmeel can now be added to the final list of CAGC's 2018 monthly Medal recipients.

In the competition sponsored by Holmes and Doran Surveyors Ltd, McElmeel plundered the Sunday spoils with a superb nett 66. The winning round had started in unpromising fashion, but Tomas soon found his stride with four consecutive pars from the 4th to the 7th.

Then, on the homeward strait, a birdie at the 15th backed up further pars at the 11th, 13th and 14th and ultimately cemented a fine Medal success. McElmeel will no doubt be chuffed at acquiring a one-shot handicap reduction in addition to the September silverware.

Tomas McElmeel, winner of County Armagh Golf Club's September Medal, receives his prize from Club Vice Captain Kenny Edgar, representing competition sponsors, Holmes and Doran Chartered Surveyors. Also pictured are Club Captain, Colm Shannon, and other prizewinners Neil Linton, Lee Stewart, Martin Carson, Calum Connell and Simon Arthurs.

County Armagh Golf Club's enterprising run in the 2018 Ulster Cup has been ended at the semi-final stage after defeat to Malone.

Marty Daly's charges, the first County Armagh side to go this far in the tournament in a quarter of a century, travelled to Malone for the first leg on Monday 27 August. A stern challenge awaited them in Belfast on a course set up long and battered by strong winds, and against canny opponents who had also made the last four in 2017.

They acquitted themselves spiritedly, however — a repeated characteristic of their campaign this year. Strong finishes from Malone saw the home team post the first points of the tie, but County Armagh responded admirably as Patrick Brannigan and Paul McCurry prevailed.

County Armagh's 2018 Ulster Cup semi-final line-up (L-R): Paul McCurry, Barry McGurgan, Paul Corvan, Patrick Brannigan, Declan McReynolds (non-playing vice captain), Marty Daly (captain), Cormac O'Hare and Nigel NcMahon.

Whereas County Armagh Golf Club's inaugural Scratch Cup event in 2017 was contested in radiant sunshine and agreeable golfing conditions, its second iteration, again kindly sponsored by F&K Smyth Restoration and Decoration, was an entirely different meteorological story.

On 26 August, the Cathedral City course bared its teeth for a gruelling 36-hole test, as the absolutely brutal wind and abundance of heavy rain made an unholy alliance with white markers positioned as far back as they could go and difficult pin placements on ever-so-slick greens. It was a stiff golfing examination but an eminently fair one.

The Senior Scratch Cup was competed for by members and visitors in the 0-5 handicap bracket and witnessed triumph for Lurgan hotshot Michael McSherry. He followed up a fantastically gritty level-par morning outing with a post-lunch 71 to complete a winning tally of 141.

County Armagh Golf Club Junior Scratch Cup champion, Caolan McReynolds, receives his trophy from Francis Smyth of F&K Smyth Restoration and Decoration, event sponsors. Also pictured are Club Captain, Colm Shannon, and other prizewinners, Calum Connell and Ruairi O'Connor.
