Do honor scores make a bowler?
« on: August 18, 2003, 01:03:24 PM »
Hey, I was just wondering what everybody's opinion is on something. Do you think a bowler with not many honor scores is still considered "good"? Not good as in league (easy shot) good, but major tournament winning, team usa material good?

Out of the 909, this was B-Car.

yes, I know one person who hasn't shot 300 yet that is an awesome bowler. Mr. Teddy Turner is one of the best left handers in out state and he still hasn't shot bills yet. He should have shot like 20 of them by now, but some back pin always screws it up.

You're right, of course, Nick.  However, hitting flush in the pocket 12 times doesn't matter if you leave 2 8's and a 9.  You get a nice consistent 240 or 230.

The only difference between youth and adult leagues are that the big boys are allowed to whine.  They're more entertaining anyway.

I also have yet to shot a 300 game nor an 800 series. But yet I have been able to toss up some pretty decent consistent scores. i would rather shoot 210-250 every game than 300-180-180. strikes arent everything in bowling. spares shooting wins tournments
