Long standing and fondly remembered members, Billy and Eedie Parker, whose home bordered the 17th hole, are honoured annually in the Parker Bowl competition, generously sponsored by their nephew, Arnold Courtney.

Sixty one ladies competed for the prizes on the day, ten of those in the 9 hole competition.

Conditions were optimal with warm sunshine and light winds and these were reflected in the excellent scoring.

The ever competitive Ellen Brady secured third spot with 39 points, one point less than Lily McMullan who made a welcome return to the prizes. Top spot was secured by Teresa Corrigan with 41 points.

Lila’s Fashions were again the loyal sponsors of the first Ladies Open Competition of the year. Seventy one players competed for the much sought after prize vouchers for use in Lila’s.

Weather conditions were again excellent as was the condition of the course after a dry and sunny spell. The run on the ball tempted many to predict low scoring but the pace of the greens fooled most competitors. Those who trusted their putting stoke on the greens were rewarded with true rolls. Those whose stroke was a little more tentative were heard vainly calling on their balls to stop and then faced with daunting return putts, or in more than one instance, return chips!

Fifty six Lady members competed for the MacMillan Charity Stableford Competition on the 4 th May. The course was in magnificent condition for the annual competition which was again sponsored by Vincent Mone and Son who have been associated with the charity for many years. Scores on the day ranged from the excellent to the instantly forgettable but those who did not feature among the prizes had the consolation of playing in brilliant sunshine.

Ann Mone, on behalf of the sponsors organised the display of a wide array of stunning Rose Gold Tipperary Crystal jewellery which she presented to the grateful prize-winners at an evening function in a packed clubhouse.

A brilliant birdie three at the treacherous 4th hole was just one of several memorable moments as Johnny McSorley turned on the style to triumph at County Armagh Golf Club on Sunday 30 April.

McSorley also posted eight pars, with a classy four at the 16th chief among them, as he kept his cool in the stableford competition sponsored by A & N Shilliday & Co Ltd refrigeration and air conditioning.

A treble bogey at the neighbouring 6th — a tricky little hole that repeatedly belies its ranking as the course's third easiest — couldn't derail Johnny's march to a much-deserved Sunday success that sees his handicap clipped to 13.

Club Captain Richard Stewart presents Andrew Miller with the prize for best gross in the A & N Shilliday & Co Ltd stableford competition. Also pictured (L-R) are category 1 prizewinners Gary McCourt and Tom Calvert.

The historic Hirsch Cup is the Swiss Ladies Open Championship trophy, which was won by County Armagh's most celebrated lady golfer, Maisie Hirsch, before she donated it to the club in 1938. Fast forward to the present day, specifically Saturday 29 April 2017, and each competitor in a 163-strong field stepped onto the first tee aiming to follow in Maisie's illustrious footsteps and take home the Hirsch Cup for himself.

This stroke competition, sponsored by Cormac Knott's Netstretch Ltd, witnessed relatively conservative scoring as the advantages afforded by immaculate greens and increased run on bone-dry fairways were more than nullified by blustery conditions, devilish pin positions and a quickness of the aforementioned greens that may have caught some by surprise.

One player who certainly wasn't daunted by any of these potential pitfalls was Darren Wilson, whose hard-earned nett 67 made him a worthy recipient of the Hirsch silverware and reduced his handicap by a shot.

Darren's tremendous performance peaked at the 7th, where a birdie took him back to just one over par. An uncertain spell would immediately follow, however, and Wilson reached the 13th tee on seven over and with work to do to avoid squandering the benefits of his early endeavours.

The then 13-handicapper steadied his ship admirably from that point, with four gutsy pars in the closing six holes ultimately deciding the result in his favour.

Hirsch Cup winner Darren Wilson receives the trophy from Cormac Knott of Netstretch Web Design, who sponsored the competition. Also pictured (L-R) are runner-up Mark Shannon, Club Captain Richard Stewart and Philip Kelly, best gross.
