20 yr. wait for first 300 is over.
« on: October 27, 2005, 02:59:39 AM »
Well I have been bowling for 20 years, and last night I finally rolled my first sanctioned 300, using a Track Freak. Now I know how others feel when you get to the 10th frame, I couldn't stop shaking , but took deep breaths, and got the ball off my hand. On a side note my Delta Rule came yesterday, and I threw several games of practice with it, boy what a strong roll throughout the the shot.

Wow!  Nice shooting!!! Congratulations on the 300, and I wish you more to come.  I know there's a 300 in that Delta ... it's a beast of a ball!  Keep up the great bowling!

GMDetective,

Congratulations on your first 300 dude! An excellent achievement no doubt! I remember my first one back in '03. Been averaging at least one a year since! Total is up to 3. Congratulations and keep it up! God Bless you!
