Witnessed near history last night!!
« on: December 22, 2004, 10:04:39 AM »

Last night one of our "resident pros" shot 197-300-298!! It was unreal to watch him. The video camera was running during his last few frames of the third game hoping to catch history in our center. He was so cool and relaxed, except for his shaking hands!! LOL! We were all hoping he'd shoot two 300 games in one night, but he had and 8 on his last ball, but it was still a great moment.

He shot two of the centers highest games this year, in the same night! He already had a 299 for the hightest so far, now he owns the 300, 299, and 298. Top 3 scores this year.

What's bad is, I didn't even ask him what he was using!!!

Another guy strung the first 10 on the last game, and had 7/ to finish, he averages about 160, what a night.

Great shooting

A friend of mine Monday night game close to going back to back 300's also
He started wtih the front 22 strikes in a row for 300 and 289 left a swish 7 on the 11th and then shoots 256 the last game with a stone 7 in the 7th the cost him the city record of 856...  Great ball reaction and great bowling, using a Morich Hercules sanded with 500 grit.

I think I would quit bowling if I ever threw two 300's in one set without an 800.
