Title: 3 League Nites - Clean 90
Post by: fishbowler on February 10, 2004, 10:27:05 PM
kinda sucks but kinda good.

three straight league sets in the same house which is pretty tough (large transition from flying backends to carrydown, to mush by game 3), have bowled 90 straight clean frames.  series 677, 697, 648.  In that period I left 38 nine counts, one 8 count, and 3 six counts.  no splits.  pretty hard to believe that I didn't hit 700 once.  just curious what others have had for clean streaks.

I had a 30 clean 697 earlier this year.  A 0/ in the 4th frame of the first game (working on a spare!), and a 7 count on the fill ball in the same game had a hand in keeping me from 700.

However I've also thrown a clean, like, 610.  Had about 15 ten pins there.

That is a pretty impressive streak.

I had a month about 4 years ago where in one league I was clean 3 out of 4 weeks and my other league I was clean 2 out of 4 weeks. Shot 2 300’s and 1 800 in that span. Had 4 opens in 28 games all opens were splits.

But I don’t believe I went 90 straight.

A friend of mine went 106 clean in the same league.  3 weeks of 30, and on the 4th week he left a rail in the 7th frame of the second game.  He was known as Mr. Clean for a while.  This had to be about 10 years ago.

That IS impressive, my best streak(that I can remember, anyhow) is 30 clean, and I've done it a few times. My best is my lone sanctioned 800 series, the lowest was either 617 or 627, not sure which. I've done it once this year, a 761, my high for the season.

It's funny I just cleaned 30 last night for a 718. I can't remember the last time I had done that. 90 is outstanding. Congrats.

Awesome. My "normal" set is 28-29 clean - always seem to get a split or corner pin open in there somewhere...
I don't recall ever going more than 1 clean set in a row, though!!!
My lowest clean set was 602. 1 double. Ouch.

I've had four clean 30's (over the course of one season).  691 (8 pin stopped 700 in the 10th of the third game ), 677 twice and 673.

Nice work.  The best I can claim is 90 clean out of 120:  60 clean in consecutive weeks, a return to normalcy ( ),  and then 30 clean last week.

Now, if you can manage 30 clean at the ABC tournament, it'll be worth your while.

Clean 30 on Twisters would give me Bowling Goddess status!  At least in my own mind...

Ninety clean is definitely an impressive number...I'm almost ecstatic when I manage ten clean  Seems like I always manage to throw a designer split into the game somewhere...and it doesn't matter if I was stringing them or just staying clean.

Actually managed 24 or 25 clean tonight to start the series before whiffing a 10-pin and went 10 of 11 on the spare opportunities for the three games.
