The Bowling thread

Just wondering how many people in here bowl/have bowled/what your average is/best game ever, bascially anything related to bowling.

I bowl about twice a year though I'll start bowling more often in my spare time (lanes at the student union). My average is...I would guess about 110-120. My best game ever, I rolled last Friday.....

147

Yeah baby

Ummm, I got a 73 last time I went. But I also got some sweeeeeeeet ass bowling shoes, so it really did make up for it. I don't go bowling sober, it's entirely too boring. And "Cosmic" bowling (they have strobes and blacklights and techno and shit) is cool shit when your high

I used to bowl in a league, my average was a 140. I think the best I've ever got was a 220.

yep, I dont bowl without having atleast 2 white russians and i go for speed instead of score, the radar reads upto 40kmh, I got something higher than that, arm aches for the next few days tho

Oh yeah...forgot to mention bowling is one of the few (if not the only) sport where you can be fat and drink beer and smoke while doing it...truly an American sport, lol.

i bowl and its the best. average is about 140 something and my best was 211 but it was luck and some skill. i will start bowling more since this place i know has a deal going on.

btw is there a website or something that can help improve your game? i want to improve and average more.

Easiest way to improve is to just keep playing, like anything the more time you spend the better your scores will get (to a cetain limit of course...)

I haven't bowled regularly in years, I used to bowl in a league when I was a kid, but I still go and play a few games every once in a while.

It's been way too long since I played in a league so an average would be meaningless, my highest game was an amazing 280 something miracle though...don't ask me how I did it, and don't ask me to repeat it

I love to bowl once in the 3 months or so. Average is 150 a 160 and my best score is 221.

I'm on my high school's varsity bowling team. We got 4th in the state in New Jersey last year. Two years before I heard we got 1st. When the season comes (starts late November and ends around March), we practice 3-4 times a week.

My highest game- 287

Highest series- 703

Posted by Stanza on Oct-04-2002 06:22:

what does varsity mean??

Umm I don't play regularly but I usually get a couple of strikes each game which makes me happy! I also go for speed! I just run down and launch the thing! Hehe your arm hurts later but its fun!

Well, it's like this: There are about 18 people on the team total. The top 5 are varsity. Those are the ones who bowl all the time. Next 5 are junior varsity, who bowl in their own league. Then the rest of the people are substitutes who only bowl whenever one of us is sick

I bowl a consistent 285+. I mostly just go bowling with my parents and cousins, and we are all extremly competitive in everything we do, so we all god pretty good really quickly.
