Longest sanctioned strike string.
« on: November 02, 2003, 08:39:31 AM »
Mine is 16.  Last 4 of the second game, all 12 in the 3rd game.  I don't believe it would have gone much longer, if any longer if I'd have either been in a 4 game league or done it earlier in the set.  I do have a few more between 12 and 15.  I know a couple guys with 24 (although one was in a tournament, it wasn't sanctioned, so it technically doesn't count, but it's still pretty cool), and I have a buddy that had 17, I believe.

I'm BETTER than you because . .

1) I've met the DNL leprechaun
2) I get paid to watch tv.
3) My dad's friend's brother knows Chris Barnes' stepdad.  
4) Kristi's my buuuuuddy
5) I get to witness a man with the speed and revs of Robert Smith combined with the accuracy of the guards in the lobby scene of the Matrix average 240
6) I can throw a better fit over nothing than you can.

Geez Tommy, that really sucks.  Can't say you weren't hitting the pocket.  Nice though!

12 a bunch of times.  Never from frame 1 -> 12.  Always the Veripapa variety.

This year....

One of the guys on my team shot
 33 in a row
  1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   10
  X   X   X   X   X   X   X   X   X  XXX
 30  60  90 120 150 180 210 240 270  300
 
  X   X   X   X   X   X   X   X   X  XXX
 30  60  90 120 150 180 210 240 270  300

  X   X   X   X   X   X   X   X   X  9/9
 30  60  90 120 150 180 210 239 259  278
 
 It even looks good on here.
 Should have been a 900 left 2 9 pin lefty true taps
 in the tenth after 330 in the pit.
 He is a bowling machine, hits the pocket 98% of the time.

 As for me 15 last 5 then front 10 - 288

My best is 16 in a row.

Batted out in the 10th of the first game for 207, threw the next 12 for 300 and a single strike to start the third game before I fell apart like a cheap suit

New string set last night, 11 in a row. Back 10 and the first next game, then I crumbled like a stale cookie!
