Ten-pin Bowling - Page 4

Not like anyone cares because I suck but I finally eclipsed and maxed out my high score. Yes sir, I dun went and bowled me 12 strikes in a row. Magnifico. Pefect game.

Ya'll have no idea unless you've done it before. 8 X's in a row is nothing, I've done that quite a few times before. 9 I've only done a couple times. 10 and beyond was foreign territory to me...Well not anymore, at least I didn't get a 299, I'd be rippin pissed!

1st, 2nd, 3rd game and last is my final series.

I cropped the picture so small because I'm on 56k and I hate it! That's one of the sheets from my bowling league, I'm going to get a plaque, my name on the wall and an extra 75 bucks at the end of the season. Got the highest game of the year in our league and also the highest scratch series.

The 7 pin is gay, as is the 10 pin. I got a 290 last week for our last night of bowling for the year. Slacked off the other two games and only ended up with a 660 something. Although I did get 13 strikes in a row, no perfect game. Got a solid 9 spare the first frame, struck out that game and two more in the next, *bleep*in sweet. Finished up my year with a 193 average, up 8 pins from my 185 last year.

Another guy on my team got our leagues highest scratch series at 770, he bowled 255,256,259 to end up at that. He was hoping for a 257 his last game but did too good.

Me and my buddy Kyle went open bowling earlier tonight and I rolled my second unofficial 300 so far. Start of the third game I was down 2-0 and couldn't get a handle on the lanes crappy conditions. So the first two frames of the third game I got a 4 pin split, knocked three of those down, then I got a solid 10 pin, missed that. Struck after that. Kyle started out with 4 strikes in a row and as I went up to roll in the 4th frame I was like "I'm gonna beat you, I'm getting 10 in a row bitch!"

Long story short, I hammered out those 10 strikes in a row and thoroughly impressed the kids next to us, and the next game I started with 5 X's in a row for a total of 15! Woohoo, broke my old record by two strikes and got an unofficial 300 again. Should've had 18 but I got another solid 10 pin after that and two more solid strikes after that.

Oh well, always time to do it again.

That shouldn't even be considered an unofficiall 300.

Just you choking at the beginning of a game.

Eh I'm really not that good! My average is currently 198, droppoing down from 204 last week, I had a bad day this week and since we've only played 9 games my average can go up and down really fast this early in the season. Not to mention we are in 11th place at the moment! Not my fault though, only me and another guy are hitting our averages on our team, everyone else is pooping on us in return.

I finished last year with a 193 average, I hope to gain at least 5 pins this year but I really, really want to end at 200 or better, that would be pretty badass! I think I can do it, I'm even better at my spares now and the 10 pin isn't that much of a big deal anymore, I can pick it up roughly 7/8 out of 10 times now, not bad considering I used to only make 1 or 2 out of 10 not too long ago. All the strikes I get are pretty badass though, makes spares obsolete.

It most certainly should count as a fake 300! I'd like to see you throw 12 strikes in a row, or even 6! It wasn't me choking at just the beginning of that game, it was the two before it, I opened up with 152 and 164. The lanes were all botched up because we came in just after a league ended so the oil was bare to none. I throw with a hard hook so it takes awhile to compensate and whatnot.

Rolled my 2nd best recorded series earlier tonight. During practice I knew I was going to do a hell of a lot bette than last week, the oil was actually set up nice for once. First game I botched up in the beginning but salvaged for a 236 thanks to a strong finish of 6 or 7 strikes in a row. 2nd game I was dead on, opened up with 6 solid strikes and then got a solid 10 pin on the 7th ball, nailed that and opened in the 8th with a split. Struck out the game to end with a 255. Only needed a 207 to get a 700 series so I got my middle game of the night with a 238. Ended up with a 729, nobody else on my team or the guys we bowled got within 20 pins of a 600 series, I was proud of myself.

My average went from 192 (down 6 pins from last week) up to 202.3 so I'm happy for now! We also won all 3 games pretty much thanks to me, bout time I contributed when it mattered! I think we need to pull a 98-00 Yankees and celebrate a 3 peat this year.
