    dont know if they're any bowlers here but...

    well on tuesday night i have my regular bowling league nite, my current average is 198, but this tuesday was a little diffrent. i actually bowled a 290 GAME!!!
    i'm so excited i have to tell everybody, i'm not trying to brag it's just i beat my 5 year old record of 279. not only that i also had my highest series a 754. my games were 248-216-290. damn if i could do that everyday i'd PAID by the pba.

    Thats an awesome game. I use to bowl nearly religiously...and then got out of it for a while. I bowled a 260 game when I was about 17 I think, but never could stay consistent with any of the games which was my big problem. Couldn't adapt to changing oil conditions, the paths, etc. I think when I got out of it I had probably a 180 somethin average.

    290! Isn't that what the pros bowl? Yeah, if they're lucky.

    Nice game Scram. I try to bowl about once a week. Here in Las Vegas there's no shortage of lanes, as practically all of the casinos have a 50+ bowling center. Like Billy, my high game is a 260, but my average is around 185.

    I bowl 300 games nightly.....on the WII

    That is awesome Scram...290 aint nothin to sneeze at, what'd you do spare strike in the 10th?
    I used to bowl in grade school think I had like a 150 avg or something. Can't even do that these days, last time I bowled I think I had like a 129 roflmao!

    dont know if they're any bowlers here but...

    i started off in the first frame with a 10 pin, i run her down and then i ran 11 x's to get the 290, well if you can get 300 on the wii, i usually bowl about 130 on it, my buddy whoops my rear everytime. so it's a trade off, i've been bowling about 16 years now, i started when i was 7. and bill i'm not much better than you, i cannot adapt very well to diffrent conditions, usually the dryer the better for me, but if its' oily and i have to slow my ball down I loose alot of my accuracy for some reason.

    Great game . My highest was a 279,( choked in the 10th). I just hung it up after 30 years, I couldn't get any better than a 185 avg.

    Those are incredible scores man. Work on that consistency. Go get paid. I don't think I've done any better than a 180. LOL That is too hardcore. I"m not worthy.
