I just started a first round of 2012 thread and also wondered if there were any memorable last rounds of 2011.

Technically, my last round of 2011 was a 9 hole glow round on my Dixie Lee DGC played around 11:00 P.M. on New Year's Eve. I only used three baskets, playing each basket from three tee positions.

My final "real" rounds were also played on 1-31-11 around 1:30 P.M. TinHornDan and I played two rounds of 9 holes at Red Neck DGC in Confluence, PA. I like to think that we both rocked the course on our first nine. He shot a 4 under 23 and I shot a 5 under 22. We came back down to Earth the 2nd time around, however, both shooting par, 27. It's amazing how this game has a way of humbling me!

So I won the day by one throw. Although he made it close coming down to the wire. I was leading by 4 going into the last two holes. I parred #8 while he drained a 40'+ putt for birdie. The lead was down to 3. Then I choked on a <20' putt, hitting the cage for bogey, while he parked his drive and nailed the birdie putt. Thus, my one shot victory. It's probably a good thing we didn't play 27. :p

All in all, it was a really fun day of golf.
 
Played Flyboy and had an awesome time with BogeyNoMore, we stayed at the b&b the night before and it was a good time. Had a pretty bad round with lots of bad putting, but you couldn't ask for a better place to have a bad round.
 
Was 40 degrees and there was no snow on the ground. That's a pretty memorable New Year's Eve in these parts. Took advantage by throwing 4 rounds at Ham Lake.

BogeyNoMore is a great dude, what's been going on Dwayne?

My last round of 2011 12-26 at Buckhorn with Moose, Wood Pecker, and discindingo. Got to watch discindingo wade in one of the nasty, cold ass ponds for a disc that he never could find. Balls and beard deep, ah...good times.
 
Here's a pic of TinHornDan putting on #4 at Red Neck DGC during our final round of 2011. Not enough light for my phone to take a good pic, but you get the idea.

Green grass and pine needles... not 18" of snow like the last time I played there in the Winter. It was probably 45 degrees with virtually no wind. I'll take that in Western PA on the last day of the year! :)

My last round of 2011 was Monday Dec 25th and I had an ace...hole #15 at Sertoma Field in Walhalla. Five witnesses. Threw a Star Mako.
 
Played my last two rounds new years eve day at shore acres.
Memorable moment would be an amazing vector upshot from 200' through a couple hundred trees on hole 5 that parked itself right under the basket :)
Once you get off the fairway its Indiana Jones thick jungle and I hit my line which was probably 4 feet wide at its widest spot.
My brother and I both looked at each other and said no effing way did that make it through lol.
 
Last round was Bradford park yesterday morning. shot a 62 from longs which is decent however the more important thing was in the afternoon as we broke ground on a future course!!
 
Last round of 2011 was at Bill Allen DGC in The Colony, TX. Shot a pretty good round of 59. I'm happy with the year-ender.
 
Played a tourney on the 31st. Shot alright first round (+2 with 5 birds) but completely blew up the 2nd (+11, 1 bird :(). Went from 3 strokes out of the lead to not even cashing in a field of 18. Better luck next (this) year.
 
I rarely play in the winter so my last round of 2011 was 11/13 at Acorn Park. It was my best round of the year there. I shot 10 under par. For the last 6 weeks of the year I really concentrated on using my putters a lot more, especially for driving. I guess it is paying off.
 
Played a quick 9 yesterday at Firefighters Park in Troy. First time throwing in about a week and half but still did pretty well

balls n beard deeeeep. and lady parts deep for me, twas not a GREAT experience.
 
My last round was one of my best at Dolese. 3 bogeys 2 birdies for a +1. Coulda been much better because I blew a few putts. The weather was great with temps around 70!
 
For my last round of 2011, I was out at Moraga Commons here in California. I ended up throwing PAR which is 2 strokes better than Ive ever thrown there. 2 birdies, 2 bogeys and 5 pars. Great way to end the year!
 
Played a round w/ bhuff and a friend of ours New Years Eve afternoon. Unfortunately I stunk it up...
 
Got out for one last round at Lakewood Hills (aka "Leftwood Hills") with a few buddies, had a great time.

Would have loved to end the year with a lower score overall, but playing a round of 18 in Minnesota ...with no snow on the ground ...35 degrees with hardly any wind ...on NYE ...was truly amazing! Check that off the bucket list! :thmbup:

Here's a tons more chains slammin' in 2012!
 
Played on 12/31 at Paul B. Johnson State Park...shot -2 but should have been about -6. Highlight was hitting a 55 ft putt to save par after throwing a bad shot OB
