  • Former good bowler, now 3 games a week house hack.
I am trading ( buying ) one of these this Friday for use on the dry, and I got to wondering.

  I myself have shot many 700's with "normal" polyester balls, most with whitedots and yellowdots, and have even scored as high as 290 with an A.M.F. Boogie.

  I like the control polyester gives me, but was just curious. Has anyone shot any 300's or 800's with one of these or know of anyone who has?

I saw on lane#1's page that a 298 was reported this year  http://lane1bowling.com/awards/

I didn't search through past years yet.

That 298 with the Red XXXL is mine.. I had just got back from nationals, was sucking the first two games and pulled it out as for my fill ball in the 2nd game and threw a strike and was like "whoa, that was actually pretty nice" so I kept with it for the next game and after every strike I made sure to hollar out "the power of plastic!".. The other team was pretty pissed off and I loved every second of it since I didn't care for them lol..   Was really nice because 2 weeks before I had shot a 300 in that same league with my cobalt pearl, we were off a week for 4th of july then I come back and do another honor score the next week.. People were getting where they didn't wanna bowl my team

I need to send in some more of my scores to the lane #1 site..
So far I own
HDB - 2 800 / 3 300's
Cobalt Pearl - 1 300
Tsunami - 1 300
Uranium HRG - 1 300 *this last sunday in a damn pre-bowl!#^% *
Red XXXL - 298

Atleast I got a ring on every ball I have from them now.. quitting bowling when my summer leagues are up due to not enjoying it anymore..

Now if stupid association people would get off there butts and send in paper work to show on my bowl.com for 2 of my 300's ;\

 that's too bad.  Maybe you just need some time off.  Enjoyment is a big part of bowling though.  It's hard to go out there if it isn't any fun.
