Your longest strike string EVER?
« on: September 04, 2008, 01:29:02 AM »
League, Practice, Warmup and league, warmup and unsanctioned tournament, warmup and tourney?  What is your longest string.

I throw a slow rolling wimpy strike ball(compared to some of the powerhouses out here) that loves to ring corners.

19, and twice in tournaments 25 of the first 27 throws(including warmup).


REgards,

PS I have several friends who've gone into the low 30s and another friend well up in to the 40s!  Practice of course!

Im so glad people are brainwashed to think that TRACK sucks. And its even funnier when im carrying with my TRACK ball and they're going flat ten with their BRUNSWICK ball.

Gee, I had 5 in a row this morning in practice! Is that good?

And, years ago, I had 13 in a row, last six in one game and the first 7 in the next game of a tournament.

Not much to brag about!

Don't really take much notice of this but I do remember bowling the back 11 & Front 8 (19) a fair few years back. Unfortunately virtually every ball was flush in the pocket but left a few 8/9/10 pins. Could have quite easily been a 850 but ended up being a 790.
--------------------
I would have got away with it if it was not for those pesky kids (Behind my lane) and those blasted 10 pins.
