Title: Oddest Scores
Post by: mr300ny on December 18, 2007, 12:01:47 PM
Today in my school league i shot a 631 and the kid next to me for one game shot a 294. He went way high and left the big six. Must have been very disappointing for him. What are the oddest scores possible? Probably 292 right?

Took out the 1, 3, 5, and 9 for a righty or the 1, 2, 5, 8 for a lefty I believe...

Saw a 290 shot to very different ways while bowling in college.  First guy had the front 11, dumped it in the gutter on the 12th.  Second time I saw a weird 290, the kid had the front 11, fouled on the 12th but still threw the strike.  I can't image what either was thinking or feeling afterwards.

I have done that too.  295 with a greek church, also a 294 with the greek church and the 3 pin added, also 296 with a Big 4.

If you believe the record books, the rarest scores for an adult are the very low scores (0, 1, 2, etc.). 292 is probably the rarest score over 50.

A teammate of mine (may he RIP) had a high game of 293.  The old nervous fudge up the right side, that skid all the way into the 6-10.

A half ten is not a great shot.  No, you shouldn't have carried it.

I've done that before too, but backwards.  I went front 6, big 4 (took 2), took it to the last ball, 8 count.  

I've also seen a 283.  9/ first frame, sheet to the last ball, hung it out in the OOB and took the 6-9-10 off the rack...  Bet he felt awkward.

Later,

The first opportunity I had to shoot 279, I choked on the last ball and washed out for a 275.  Pretty embarrassing.

front 6, gutter spare, sheet = 270

front 10, 4 through the face, 1 = 285? i think

How about shooting a 700 without a 200?

Front nine, 9 spare, then take out the 4-8 for a 2 count and finish with a 271.  Good thing it was only in open play though.
