Well I Just wanted to say congrats to Kenny Waltman. This kid has had 5 300's and an 831 since breaking a bone in his hand in september. He also shot a 299 on sport league last week on the US open pattern. He bowled a tourney in january where the house has only had 1 300 this season. Kenny shot 2 in 6 games. Oh yea he is only 15. Way to go kenny!

I seriously find it hard to beleive that a 15 year old is throwing 300 so consistantly...I can beleive maybe 1 or even 2 but throwing them like no problem or sport shots....It just dont set right when the kid is only 15 years old.now and 831 I can beleive I shot my first 700 last week
just really hard to beleive

Yeah, but there are those cases.  There's a kid in Wichita, KS, named Brent Bowers, and I think he shot his first 300 when he was 13.  He's 15 or 16 now, but he's GOOD.  Just shot his first 800 not too long ago.  Some kids get lucky and develop early, but it's not like he's lacking in the talent department either . .

this kid has some serious talent. And he is throwing them on a regular basis. His grandparents own a bowling alley and he lives in a small town where the lanes are crap. So once he hits another house that has a easier shot, he just whacks um. Kenny made the all star team at JWTC last year in second place. He also has been high qualifier in the NW region teen masters for 2 years in row. and I think lost to cimineli in flordia last year. this kid is the real deal.
  I do know brent bowers, I kicked it with him in vegas. And he is very good and has a lot of talent.
