  • For those of you keeping score at home...

    I added #8 to my collection on Wednesday night by bowling another 300 game. Libations were had by all in celebration...

    Dang boy! Congrats!

    I remember bowling a total of 300 in a 3 game series. For some reason, they didnt believe that was worthy of a ring.

        Yea, I used to live at that place. Never got a 300 in league play, but had quite a few in the 280's. I switched over to a rhino ball and it made all the difference in the world in my game.

            *LIKE* Nice one Rick,

            My only chance of nailing 120 pins in 12 shots is to use a 12 gauge ... on full auto ...

              I would need a ball the size of Kahoolawe....

              Nice job, RicK!

                  I had a Purple Rhino that I threw my 2nd and 3rd 300 games with. It was a pretty good ball! I used a Columbia 300 Yellow Dot for the 299 at Hardwick's. That was the ball I used for my first 300. Still have it actually... The Hammer Jigsaw was the ball of choice Wednesday night.

                  My apologies ... I do know I'm a bowling geek. Specially when I have over 15 Bowling Balls in my Hall Closet at home.

                    So that's how you do it: the more balls you have the more 300 games you roll. I only have 3 balls, and one of them has never been drilled. I guess that's why my high game is only a 289.

                      15 balls, 8 "300" games, that's a 53% strike rate Rick !!!
