My first 700!
« on: February 12, 2005, 12:26:37 PM »
I bowled my first 700 today during a youth tournament.  Started off with a Freak-A-Zoid, but starting frame 5 I was going high so I went to my Power Groove (not Track...unfortunately; all my Track balls are hook and more hook).  

I bowled 222-223-258 = 703!  Definitely an accomplishment in my books.  The Freak-A-Zoid got the ball rolling with a 5 bagger in the first game, but the adjustment to the Groove left a bucket and missed spare; could have shot 230+.

Thanks to my friend who kept my hopes up.  We were playing to see who could string the most strikes, and last game he rolled an 8 bagger and left a 7 while I struck out with a 9 bagger!

Good shooting Ice. I guess I consider myself lucky because I do encounter enough oil in the two houses I bowl leagues in, and shot my most recent 700 (211-224-279) for a 714 with my Rule all three games last Monday night.

Im glad I dont bowl where you guys do LOL.....I bowl in a house that doesnt have much oil but it sounds like we have enough as im averagin 220 + in two leagues and 220+ while subbing and I constantly have to play inside of 5th arrow.....this week alone I shot 723 and 734 and feel like I had to struggle to get that with the condition but now I dont feel so bad.
