Thats great bowling.  Just give it time.  A friend i bowl with on mondays has never shot a 700 either but in our 4 game league he has shot a few 700s with the last 3 games, since doing that his confidence has increased a ton and is shooting 600 more often and shooting bigger games now more often. I sure his 700 is just right around the corner just like yours.  Keep up the great bowling.

Kinda sounds like me.  I've never had a sanctioned 300 before, but I have had 17 strikes in a row.  I had the last 10 of my second game and the first 7 in my third game.  It's harsh!

Thomas- the 700 series will happen when you least expect it. My freshman year of college I struggled in my Sunday night home league and shot 450. The following week my bowling coach had his son hold a 2 hour clinic for the bowling team and I worked on a few things as far as my hand release and ball speed. That following Sunday I threw my first 700 series- a 706- and I think I threw another 10 series over 700 in that league alone. Once it happens, the floodgates should open, but others are right in saying that you need to just bowl naturally, not for honor scores, and take the series one frame at a time.
