First 700
« on: January 27, 2009, 12:14:03 AM »
Im sick of hearing all the ppl who post their 800's and 300's lets do one for the normal and up and coming bowlers. who remembers their first 700 series? how old were you? what were your 3 game scores. i finally did it this season. last night i threw 721 w/ 237, 216, 268.im 21.i started with the rapid fire but didnt like the look i was getting so i switched to my black widow which for some reason gave me a much nicer look. i left one open in the 2nd game which is the reason for the 216. the other two were clean games. i was so excited for myself you guys have to excuse me its my first one. i wanna hear everybody elses stories too.

713 = 267, 209, 237

21 years old.  Did it April 10, 2008.  Started bowling January 22, 2008.

Yes, I broke 700 2.5 months after starting...don't know how, but did.  I havn't done it again since though.

MoRich Ravage was used for it.

Congrats!
It seems like everyone on BR shoots 800 every other week...
Even though that's not true...
700 is still a great score.
Your 8 will come.

Flirted with 700 numerous times over the years.

Finally did it last month, 52 YRS OLD, 243-254-220 for 717.

Did it with my Whirlwind because the Playmaker was jumping to hard on the break during warmups.

721 at 20 years old. Can't remember all of my games, but I remember the first one was a 278. Was throwing a Track Hexplosion

Hadn't had one since until this season when I've had 3.

Congrats!  I shot my first 700 3 seasons ago.  I remember it was 702, but don't remember the exact scores.  But I do know I had averaged 185-205 for the previous 12 years without one.  I was 24 at the time.  Since then I have found the come a little easier.  I shot 1 more that season, 6 the next and have 2 so far this year

I was 14. I believe it was 729. And I believe it was with a Dyno-Thane Concept XXtra Swirl.

But all I know for certain is I was 14 lol

Congrats on your first 700.  That's a great accomplishment for anyone.

I was 17, I think, for my first one.  It was during a summer league with my mom.  My series was a 725 and I shot it with an AMF Bullwhip.  I loved that ball.

For an individual patch for the 700, would you need to submit a request or would the bowling secretary take care of that?

726 A couple of years into bowling league with an Absolute Inferno.
I don't remember the game but I do remember it was in the position round against my proshop guy's team and that I was very excited.
It was nice that it was with him there as he helped me out alot.
