Michael's birdie delight secures September Medal

Michael Cullen saved his best round of the season for the last medal competition of the year at County Armagh, and his winning score nett 60 was simply untouchable.

The 11-handicapper was a four shot winner after a superb round which included no less than five birdies. After nine holes, Michael was just three over par, but when he birdied three of the next five holes and went on to finish with a birdie also, there was no catching him.

Competitions Convenor Paddy Burns was his closest challenger with a very impressive nett 64 winning on countback from Jim McKeown and Brendan McKinney who also returned nett 64s, but they paled into insignificance against Cullen's brilliant nett 60.

Another 11-handicapper, Kieran Campbell, led home the category scores, his nett 65 winning the 0-12 handicap group with Michael McGuirk runner up and no doubt rueing a triple bogey seven at the 5th hole.

Jim McKeown's nett 64 earned him the top prize in the 13-18 handicap category with Jonathan Black runner up with a nett 65.

And in the 19-28 handicap category it was Brendan McKinney who topped the scoreboard with his nett 64, seven shots better than the next placed Anthony Fagan on nett 71.

Jarleth McReynolds produced the best gross score of the day - 68.

Kathleen Mallon returned the best score on the day with thirty eight stableford points to lift the cup. Hot on her heels was Ann McDonald just a point back, and Una Cullinane's thirty six points was enough for third place. The best gross belonged to June Humphries while the front nine was Barbara Hamilton's twenty one points and Fionnuala Quinn won the back nine with twenty points.

The category winners were as follows: (A) Bernie Rice 35 points, (B) Gail Steed 35 points, (C) Carmel Cassidy 35 points, (D) Cait Murray 31 points. The Visitor's prize was won by S Rankin from Donaghadee Golf Club. Nearest the pin on the seventh hole was Barbara Hamilton while the longest drive on the seventeenth hole was achieved by Catherine Corrigan.

In a packed clubhouse on Thursday night the Lady Captain Hilary welcomed the ladies and the McAnerney family.

Fairlawns prize is just reward for Noel's fair day's work

Noel Murtagh was the popular winner of the Fairlawns Residential sponsored stableford at County Armagh.

The 12-handicapper signed for 43 points to win the competition prize which was presented by Fairlawns' Clare Cassidy at the clubhouse on Saturday evening.

Opening his round with three pars, Noel's steady scoring saw him chalk up 21 points by the turn. Back-to-back birdies at 12 and 13 got him off the a similar excellent start to the back nine which yielded a further 22 points for that winning 43 total.

Robert Fagan was runner up with 41 points, his better back nine score taking the prize ahead of James Johnston, Patrick McElmeel, John Sheehan and Noel Muldoon who all returned 41points also. But it could so easily have been Robert's name in lights had he not failed to score at not one, or two but three holes!

James Johnston's 41 points earned him the 0-12 handicap category first prize, two points ahead of runner up Shea Smyth who got off to the best possible start with a birdie three on his way to 39 points.

Patrick McElmeel won the 13-18 handicap category with 41 points and that after failing to score at the 6th hole. But his better back nine pushed John Sheehan into runners up position after he too carded 41 points.

Noel Muldoon was the other 41 pointer and deservedly picked up first prize in the 19-28 handicap category, three points better than runner up Paul Kelly.

And once again it was Jarleth McReynolds who collected the prize for the day's best gross score, 37points.

County Armagh says thank-you to club sponors

County Armagh Golf Club Captains' John Flack and Hilary Johnston paid tribute to the club's many sponsors for their support during the past year.

Numerous local companies and businesses who sponsor club competitions were represented on Sponsors Day, and both the Mens' and Ladies Captain's took the opportunity to say a big thank-you to them all.

Rollins Insurance Brokers provided the financial support the now annual event which includes a stableford competition before an evening of fine dining by the club's Green Room Restaurant and entertainment.

As ever the prizes were eagerly contested, and with the course in excellent condition, impressive scoring was essential to secure a prize.

Damien Smyth from Complete Living Solutions produced the day's best score - 41 points - for the top prize. Young Barry Scully representing Rices Supermarket Ltd, was runner up with 40 points and Ted Atkinson representing Ol Flowers took third prize with 39 points. Jeff Tosh from Armagh City Hotel and Tim Taylor, representing WD Irwin & Sons, both scored 37 points wand took 4th and 5th prizes respectively on countback.

Anne Attwell, representing McKinney Timber Products, was the top lady scorer on the day with 35 points, narrowly winning ahead of Ronnie Toal who also returned 35pts. Past Lady Captain Paula McCrory, representing Sterling House, picked up third with 34 points and also the prize for nearest the pin. Kathleen Mallon was fourth and Anne McDonald 5th.

The prize for the Longest Drive was won by Johnny Brown, representing Armagh Potato Co Ltd.
