20 for 300, haven't had an 8 yet.  I've only been bowling since I turned 19 (I'm 22 now, b-day's in mid-August), so I don't suppose that's too bad.  I've had a handful of both 3's and 8's in practice, but that isn't good for anything but confidence.  I'll get it one of these days!

17 for the 300 and no 800 yet.  still waiting for that time when the pins just seem to crumble on every shot for one night.

300 when i was just a few days away from 16
800 when i was 17. (was in league play and everything so i was very disapointed when i found out that the person running the league hadn't sanctioned it yet.  2 weeks later it was sanctioned.)

I was 50 years old before i shot my 1st 300,which was 2 years ago.I did get my 1st 800 before the 300.
Now i have 5 300's(2 this year) and 3 800's(1 this year).

So don't give up on getting either one of these honor scores.It will happen when you least expect it.
