Mullins seals super last shot victory

CHRISTY MULLINS brought a memorable 2011 to a perfect conclusion with a convincing win over Gary Daly in the feature score of the RNLI Benefit Day at Castletownbere.

Brian Wilmot, James O’Donovan and Tim Young also had wins, but the biggest winner was the RNLI which netted €3,500 from the event.

Mullins opened with a good first bowl, but it fell left and Daly beat it by five metres. Mullins got a good second bowl to the first house. Daly’s bowl fell left 60m shy of that tip. Daly got a better third shot past the petrol station, but Mullins beat it to hold his 60m margin.
