I shot 288!
« on: May 07, 2005, 01:28:32 AM »
Yesterday, 5/6/05 I bowled my high game of 288! I have only been bowling 1 year! I used my Ricochet Rebound to do this on a medium oil shot. I had a very efficient line to the 1-3 last night. My Rebound is drilled up fully aggressive w/ 3 1/2 in pin out and no weight hole. Im very excited because now Im very close to my first 300!

Son,

When you get the first 11 and you have to throw that 12th ball, then you can get excited about shooting a 300. I had the first 11 my 3rd year of bowling way back in 76 and haven't had the front 10 since.

There's nothing like that feeling of seeing all 10 down on that 12th shot.

Nice!  288 was also my high game, right before I shot a 299 the following season.  Good things are on the horizon for you!
