My first 200 was 200 on the nose and you shot 215 so that beats me  Congratulations and keep up the good work!

Congrats! I remember a friend of mine a couple years back trying to get his first 200. 4 straight weeks in league he threw upper 190s, and he finally got it the next week. Definitely a barrier broken down. Good work.

Congratulations. I remember my first 200+ game well, with a Power Groove at my club house. Great feelings, and more is surely to come. Keep it up!

Congrats! More to come I'm sure!

I still have the 'print-out' for my first 200 game it was 213, shot with a purple 10 lb AMF House ball!

I shot my first 200 maybe 8 or 9 years ago now, definitely a great feeling.

You will now start to see that once you've broken the barrier you do it alot more often.

I remember when I broke the 700 barrier for the first time last year it was a great feeling, I shot like 703, and this was midway through the season in 2 leagues. I finished the season with 5 or 6 700's and a 756 high series.


Great job on the 200, there is surely more to come.

I never had a 200 game until I got coaching. Then broke 200 the third session of coaching. Now I average 212. Great job I am sure there are more to come.
