Ok so we've phoned the bank manager and got an extension on our overdraft to allow us to take the kids tenpin bowling this afternoon! Everyone I know always lies about their best score when it comes to this "sport" so what's yours stw??
Don't think I've ever made it over two hundred.
Probably around 180-190ish.
Mid 130's but haven't been for years.
used to play in a league
IRC my best score was
256
I wouldn't have a clue, never taken much notice.
not very high (130s I think) but I once (when drunk) went strike-spare-strike-spare-strike and then we had to leave the lane - I was gutted!
232, we were playing best of two rounds though and the first was 97
got 4 strikes in a row once. think that gave me about 180ish for that game
166 I think. I'm always annoyed at myself if I don't get over 100.
In Hull years ago we could play in the day time for as long as we wanted for £5. We used to leave very limp-wristed but did get some OK scores - over 190 anyway. Was asked to join the Uni bowling team when I played with the captain but he scored over 250 when I played him so thought I wasn't that good - I noticed the good players have their own balls and span them in a lot.
I'd love to turn up with all the gear. Own shoes, ball, little towel polishing rag thing. Few stretches, warm ups etc then put one straight in the gutter ha ha. Actually that'll probably happen but with a borrowed ball and shoes:)
178 for real 🙁 That hurdle of getting past the persistent split pairs or spares to hitting strikes is quite tricky.
236-ish on Wii Sports (much more on the 100-pin bowling though 🙂 )
Beat my Dad with that 178 (years ago) and both parents were in the 200-club.
300 on the Wii... I once got a strike in the real world too. About 160 my real world best iirc.
Perfect on 100 pin bowling the the Wii (3000?)
Crap in real life!!
Used to play in a league here in Spain. 231 highest game and 636 highest series (3 games). Never got anywhere near that since!
140 or so. Since I broke my elbow its never been quite the same though.
I think it's just over 200 but I can't remember if that's in real life or on the wii 🙂
220 for me years ago, when our doubles team won the Cup at work
Strike, strike, spare, strike,strike then fail!! Gutted! Ended up with 169!
Mine was 244 against my then very competitive ops director, not a good result in hindsight 😕
Well normally I score around 160-170 but I took my sons and his friends the other day and scored 204 and totally impressed them all! Obviously I can never go bowling with them again or they'll realise I'm not really that good.
