What was the first BALL you shot your first 300 with!
« on: June 14, 2005, 05:45:38 AM »
The BALL I shot 300 with was the Bonaza Blue Dot from 1973.  I was 14 yrs old and bowling in a junior tournament here in California, the next week the bowling center shut down.

Would really like too here some good stories.

GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESS

First and only 300 game, summer of 1972, Village Lanes, Beaumont, Texas.  Brunswick Black Diamond, which I left on the rack of a small house in Natchitoches, LA, about seven years later.  Yes, it was snctioned.  --  JohnP
