The penultimate weekend of qualifiers in County Armagh Golf Club's 2017 calendar saw new member Ciaran Conroy carry off the September Medal with a stunning nett 63.
In the tournament contested on Saturday 23 September and kindly sponsored by Ian Dawson Solicitors, pars at the 6th, 7th and 8th helped Ciaran to negotiate the first nine holes in 41 strokes and, more significantly, left him four shots under his handicap at that halfway juncture. Similarly accomplished play would follow during a no-nonsense back nine of two pars and seven bogeys.
This performance would have been impressive at any time, but it was particularly so given the dampness underfoot and the gustiness overhead on a what was difficult day for golf. Unperturbed, Ciaran cruised to glory in the sixth and final monthly Medal of the golfing year and earned a new handicap of 19 that he'll no doubt reduce further in 2018.
Ciaran Conroy, winner of the County Armagh Golf Club September Medal, is presented with his prize by competition sponsor, Ian Dawson (Solicitor). Also pictured are category 2 runner-up, Dessie Cassidy, and Club Captain, Richard Stewart.
A handicap-equalling outward trek provided Gary Jordan with a stable platform from which to launch a blistering back-nine assault featuring five pars and just 41 blows. This all added up to a superb gross 65 and the overall runner-up prize for Jordan.

Monday 18 th September 2017.
The end of the golfing season for the Ladies of County Armagh Golf Club has been traditionally marked by the Past Lady Captain's competition. In a break from tradition this year, past Lady Captain, Una Cullinane, opted to run a team “classic” with a shotgun start. The new format proved to be a tremendous success as competitors were able to enjoy a tasty barbeque, prepared by Seven Hills, before the prizegiving.
Past Lady Captain Una Cullinane was delighted with the turnout of 19 teams who took part in the competition. Una thanked past captains Audrey Kellet, Flo McCall and Barbara Hamilton who had done so much to help organise and run the classic. She also expressed her appreciation of the support which had been given by the Men's Branch. The goody bags were generously sponsored by Eileen Stewart of Armagh Business Centre and James Hewitt of Hewitt Meats.
Una added that the course was in tremendous condition despite the heavy downpours of the previous week and the necessary autumn treatment of the greens. While many complained about difficulty finding the pace on the greens, this was not reflected in the scores of the winning teams.
The overall winning score of 101 points was recorded by Una's own team, while prizes were also awarded for best men's, ladies and mixed teams. In addition, prizes for longest drives and closest to the pins were provided, as well as some spot raffle prizes, thanks to the generosity of the past Lady Captains.

With the course having taken such a battering from the seemingly incessant rain of recent weeks and yielding such little run as a consequence, good scores at County Armagh Golf Club are very hard-earned these days.
In such conditions, it's especially advantageous to possess the sort of animalistic hitting power that Thomas Murray has in his armoury, and indeed this proved to be the case as he took the top honours in a Club Stableford event on Saturday 16 September.
To focus solely on Murray's capacity for enormous distance would do a disservice to a deft short game that was also very much in evidence during this fantastic two-over-par outing. Thomas notched birdies at the 2nd, 7th, 10th and, most satisfyingly, the 18th, which arrested a potentially costly slide of three consecutive bogeys from the 15th to 17th. As it was, Murray's peerless 42-point return sealed a comfortable competition victory and a deserved eight-to-seven handicap reduction.
The 6th at County Armagh: an easy hole on paper; a little more tricky on grass.
Trailing Thomas by three points and occupying the Saturday runner-up berth was Ian Millar. This 11-handicapper often reserves his best golf for the weekly Wednesday Opens, but a splendid 39-point round comprising 10 pars and eight bogeys showed that he can produce the goods on any day of the week.
