The course must be playing very well because there have been some super scorecards put in the competitions this week. The Weekly Challenge was fiercely contested, Aaron Agg produced a score of 44 points and a hole-in-one at the 5th, thats some round of golf and usually 44 points is good enough to win but [...]
In the last report I mentioned the weather was turning cooler and likely to be raining over christmas, well it is certainly cooler but the rain has not been any worse than normal, a spell of rain here and there is not too bad for the time of year. I hope everyone had a nice [...]
The weather is starting to turn a little cooler but the odds are suggesting it will not be a white christmas this year… not in Loughgall anyway, I would hazard a guess that there is a strong possibility of rain? The Weekly Challenge was hit quite hard with the weather conditions being rather wet, also [...]
Once again we see the familiar name of Dessie Hughes sitting very comfortably at the top of this weeks Weekly Challange Competition…. and with 44 points to his name its not surprising! I think if handicaps were given by the regulars on the course rather than a handicap convenor we would see several shots cut [...]
There was a big night on Friday past, it was a chance for those who have done well over the season to come and collect the fruits of their labour….medals, cups, vouchers and ofcourse the recognition of their fellow golfers for a job well done at sometime during the year. An event has to be [...]
The Weekly Challenge was won with a score of 43 points, so while some people were fighting in the superstores Cecil Brownlee was crafting the winning round of golf on LGC fairways and greens, the next best score was that of Willie McWilliams….41 points. The weather has taken its toll on the numbers entering this [...]
The Weekly Challenge is now back in progress after Davy McRoberts cleaned up in the Armagh Potato Company winter league, although he was pushed all the way. Very well done Davy you are a work in progress… there is a single figure handicap player about to emerge, mark my words! As for the Weekly [...]
Thursday was an extremely damp day… thats obviously a understatment as the following day the 2nd fairway was just 25% grass the rest was a flood plain, Saturday the course was open! It is hard to believe the course could absorb that amount of water and be playable so soon after such a deluge. Credit [...]
Some people might think this is bordering on greedy, forty five points in week 4, forty six points in week 5…. does Davy McRoberts want to win every week. Well i suppose he does really and wouldn’t we all if we could, that is excellent consistancy Davy. Single figure handicap coming your way i think? [...]
Although the weather is in transition, those golfers playing on Saturday mornings have been relatively fortunate with the conditions, hopfully we will get another burst of mild weather taking us up to Christmas? Another round of the winter league and some very good scoring, the best score of the week was Davy McRoberts round of [...]
