81 Year Old man bowls a 300 game
« on: March 18, 2014, 05:56:49 PM »
Congrarts Ray on your 300 game

This is so great. it was his first 300 game. I wonder how nervous he was waiting this long. I love seeing older bowlers still doing great.  Please watch he deserves it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V51q1EsJsI4

Thanks for the link. Ray looked good, and the crowd reaction was very nice.

Very nice!  Please tell me he wasn't using his Black Beauty drilled in 1968...  We have to justify all our new toys... ;)

That was awesome.  Great shooting.  Based on what I saw, he must have packed the other 9 since the last 3 were perfect.

Impressive.  More impressive is that he piped it up 10 every shot.

Honor scores mean nothing.....

Obviously I jest.  That was a great video.  Every time he struck he clapped to himself, too cute.  Reminds me of what my grandpa would do if he was still able to throw a bowling ball.

AWESOME!

Yeah, every single one of the balls in the 10th were identical, pretty fun video to watch!

Just as an FYI, according to Ebonite, it was a Gamebreaker that he used for his 300.  They posted it on their Facebook page.

Always nice to see something like this happen.  And even nicer to see the people around him happy for him. 

Congrats!!

Fantastic game and a fantastic reaction from him and the people watching.  Thank god he wasn't surrounded by the usual BR cynics who would have said "BFD, 300's are cheap with conditions being too easy and balls too powerful".
