MattM4 0 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Went Bowling last night for the umpteenth time this "summer" Anyway, for the first time I managed to do a Turkey, which I was very pleased about of course although I didnt beat my record, coz of a poor start (and probably coz the woman misspelled my name), I ended on a high. What is your record then? mine is 146 if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikko 20 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I went bowling on sunday, I didn't do that great, 117, but a friend managed 185 which was impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou 0 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I suck at bowling. And I'm extremely random at it (me, random? what a shock). But I have been known to get two strikes in a row, and then not hit a single pin for the rest of the game. We went bowling last week, and we played with bumpers so that we felt better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed it is quite impressive! Still a long way away from the big 300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol 0 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 292, although I did used to bowl league. Played a cup game against a guy who was leading in the league and we matched each other strike for strike until I felt the pressure. He went on to get 300. My average when I left the league was 251. Might rejoin one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny really as 292 is a very rare score, so I feel special anyway. There's some people in my league who have had quite a few 300's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Geordie 1 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Bowling should bring in some practise throws.. I mean my first four are shite and then the last six are usually great.. Dunno why the hell I need such practise it's not that hard to pick up is it?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
