How many people like to bowl here? And if so, how good are you? I'm just thinking about this because I have to go to leagues in a few minutes. Wish me luck...I need it. Barely keeping a 180 average

I used to bowl competitively 1-3 times a week for about 11 years. I got busy with family and work so I had to put the sport away for awhile. That was 1996. Man it's been a long time. My final ABC average was 202 or 203.

I had been bowling for 5 years with an average slowing creeping up from 150 to 165. I dedicated myself, bought new equipment and in one year jumped to 200. Yes, I was one of those guys that walked in with 3-4 bowling balls.

I am looking forward to bowling again. It was my night out with the guys.

My highest score is 169.

I only go once or twice a year with friends, I like it but wouldn't want to do it regularly, I think it could kill my interest.

My highest game was a 299. As always, the bowling alley gave me the pin that I missed so I have a momento of near greatness. I didn't win high game for the year either. There were usually 3-4 300 games bowled every year. BTW, I was the lowest bowler on my team. 5 guys, 1054 team average. Do the math.

I do have a couple of 290's, 5?- 28x's and too many 279's games to remember. A 279 game is also 10 strikes with 1 9pin/spare in the middle.

I hear ya. I had a 289. 10 strikes in a row and the second shot in the 10th I choked and pulled it, but I was hoping for a Jersey strike, but I think I left the 4 pin. Made that and there was my lowly 289.
