Thats pretty impressive edjr. Especially the 146. I bowled a couple of years in a league when I was a freshman and sophmore in high school. I averaged in the low 90's. Breaking 300 (total 3 strings) was always my goal and I did it occasionally in that league. No candlepin in Cali now though :thumbsup: .

Cheater...

 

I meant in my three strings combined. Its a lot lower scoring than regular bowling.

My career high was 122, which I bowled when I was 12, never even came close to bowling 300 for 3 strings.

 

I hadn't bowled more than maybe once every 2 years since then and I joined this league in January.

 

I've bowled a 121, 133 and a 146. my average is 101.

I knew what you meant. :thumbsup:

 

I used to love watching candelpin bowling on Saturday mornings on TV with Don Gillis.

 

I guess my next thing to shoot for is a 400.. I can't really see that, that's 3 really good games in a row.

Ah, I thought you meant that you wanted to get a 300 for one game...

 

My bad...

low 90s.

 

occasionally break 100, but will easily have an 80 thrown in there too.

 

 

as for score? I don't really care. I just like those new speed guns they have in the lanes. :doublethumbsup:

I remember throwing it as hard as I could, now I throw it a little slower, but I have a nice curve that spins right in the pocket more times than not.

 

I had 4 spares and 2 strikes when I got my 146 with those 2 strikes coming back to back.
