Congratulations on getting one so young---but if i can be a little bit of a party pooper---I really dont think its right for a 13 year old to have an 8 ball arsenal---nowhere neat that many balls are needed at that stage

i know, thats what everyone says, but i bowl tournaments on a lot of different conditions, so it IS right for me to have that many bowling balls.

Congrats on the 300!

My first (and only) was at Munsee Lanes during the scratch league on April Fools day last season, which was still 2009, so this year.

Congrats, none for me yet.

Another "party pooper" comment:-
All that stuff that you have put in your signature is already in your profile,where we can look at it if we want. I, personally, don't want this sort of info "forced" on me.  It takes up a lot of place, too.

Congratulations, too!!!

No 300 yet, but last week I came close: just a 279 (for a new personal High game record).

Opened with 3 strikes, when the machine swallowed my ball (my Revolution Renegade). Not expecting much (since it was training) I just threw another ball, hoping to get the lost one back from the machine. Was a 9/ count though, ball came back, and from there on I stringed 11 further strikes. Not sure if I should be happy or not - chances are high that with the whole game with my Renegade, it could easily have been a 300. I had phenomenal control and carry with it, probably an ideal condition window and me as a very relaxed operator.

Well, it will surely come...
