THE Dubbo teams in the Central Western District's Golf Association pennants competition continue to impress and sides in all four divisions will contest this weekend's semi-finals.

The Division 1 side defeated Wellington at Mudgee on Sunday while the other three sides all had wins over Orange's Wentworth club.

This weekend the Division 1 side travels to Wellington to play Parkes, Division 2 plays Forbes at Duntryleague, Division 3 plays Bathurst at Wellington and Division 4 plays Bathurst at Duntryleague.

In Division 1 last Sunday the Dubbo team won 3-2 with James Gleeson (2up), Ross Horrocks (2 and 1) and Pat Wilson (7 and 5) all victorious while David Gleeson (2 and 1) and Connor Schubert (down) both lost.

Youngster James Gleeson has been one of Dubbo's most impressive in the early rounds, along with Jones Comerford, who didn't play in the most recent round.

Nick Coggan and Alex Haylock, who were both successful on Sunday, have been standouts in Division 2 while Johnathon and Mitchell Bourne have shown real talent in Divisions 3 and 4 respectively.

In local golf news, last Wednesday the Individual Stableford attracted visitors from Darling River, Ocean Shores, Dunheved, Morrisset and Tamworth. The Harvey Norman sponsored day had a field of 119. The A grade winner was a happy Rex Miller (11) with a well compiled 44 points.

Runner-up was a very much in-form Pat Wilson (plus 2) with his 41 points equating to a scratch round of 3-under par. B-grade winner was general manager Ray Core (27) with 43 points and second place was fast improving youngster Mitchell Bourne (19), on 42 points. Balls went to 39 on a countback.

To figure in the monkey business Jake's 41 points had to be bettered. Nearest the pin winners were Trevor Leach (68cm on the 5th), Craig Mears (143cm on the 8th), Pat Wilson (61cm on the 23rd) and Matthew Zell (63cm on the 26th).
