i bowl in both 4 and 3 person team leagues. its a necessary evil i think. teh most logical thing to do is go to 3 peopel per team. but voice your opinion and ask them not to change it. if it chanegs there will still be bowlers who drop out and teams will be not full. but going to 3...

i have 4 in total. but only use 2 of them right now. the ones i use are HAMMER: ANGER Raw Hammer Storm Shift

thanks for the tip troy. right now im just trying to bowl consistent enough. 600 is the least thing on my mind. putting up with other people's constant badgering over my bowling is whats on my mind right now. but it will be worth it when i can finally knock one off. ive often told...

last year i got a Hammer ANGER and it has served me pretty good. get some decent reaction from it. but i mostly use a storm shift (2nd hand) right now, it works better on drier conditions.

its been a while since i posted on this thread i started. and i started it almost 3 years ago. UPDATE: i did try bowling at another centre, coffs harbour actually. didnt do too bad. but had to give up due to a couple of things. best series i bowled up there, 590. ah well. time will...

thanks guys. i still use only the one ball a game. my other bowling balls have different finger span sizes and its uncomfortable going frmo one thats small-ish to my normal bowling ball every few shots. thats why i getting my next ball drilled to roughly the same as my current ball.

i got the same message. but i ignored it. last time i opened a message like this it wrecked my computer

seems i kinda misread the title of this thread. sorry to everyone.

i bolwed in a tournament series lat year where there were 10 people bowling at a time. and they had no end of problemswith people having 3 or more balls on the return. my solution for something like this you nominate 2 balls to use for that game and cant switch them for any other nutil the...

ive been bowling for almost 19 years, with time of in between no 300 yet. but im not worried. my first 200+ game has been the highlight so far

i was happy when i got my ANGER ball from Hammer. but at times its a pain in the butt. at my home centre it rarely gets huge turn which means i have to rotate my wrist a bit more and change the way i let the ball go. it usually backfirs as my arm goes right across my body. yet at another...

my current ball i have. a Raw Hammer ANGER. very first ball i let go knocked all the pins down. only thing now is it has a big scuff mark from wehre the ball has hit the lane every time and its right where my ball turns so i think the ball is not as good now.

thanks for the advice. im looking ata change of scenery this year. bowling at a different centre. one thing i didnt mention is the constant jibes i get from people. thats why im changing centres. it will come.

since i started this thread over 2 years ago. i can asnwer your question. no i still havent bowled 600 yet. although and some people will disagree on this. i had 3 practice games in june last year. 186, 223, 192. total: 601. they were only practice games so they really dont count. but on...

the most ive seen anyone bowl in a row is 16. but that includes a 300. 12 in one game. front 4 in the 2nd. still 16 in a row was immpressive. the same day i saw 16 straight. also two 300 games were bowled. one of which was the 16 in a row. the other came after the guy bowled a 289. a...

i know ive said this before but here is my list of bowling balls. an ordinary HAMMER reactive ball thats 10yrs+ old HAMMER Raw Anger. the raw anger is a great ball both to bowl with and good to look at as well. it only took me 4 games before i cracked 200 with it. and im stunned that i...

ive had a certain type of ball made by Hammer for the last 10 years. and recently i thought i had to up grade so i got a Hammer - RAW ANGER. i tried it out today for the first time and bowled 198, 158, 184. Total: 540 not bad considering I recently learned how to use a wrist guard and...

ive comeback from bowling tonight March 9th 2009 and bowled 159, 164, 231. the 231 was great for me as i got a 7-bagger for only the second in my life. the last was in september 2002 when i bowled my highest game of 255. nowhere near 600 tonight, but ill take a 7-bagger anyday.

in my league we dont print out the standing sheet in the last 3 weeks. But it was voted on by the players. having said that it is annoying and next league im going to vote that we show it for the last 3 weeks. Here is something interesting ive just started a league on wednesday nights and...

kinda. Actually at the very end i was. One of my team mates began to add my scores together and i stopped him quickly by saying "Dont bother adding them up i know what i need. BIG MISTAKE. I was confident of getting what i needed and after bowling the shot i thought it would happen but only...

Im hoping it comes soon. Still i cant complain at least im not bowling terrible. I really thought last monday night i could do it but i only got 6 pins on my last ball when i needed 8. But i suppose bowling 598 is better than bowling 599 for the second time. Does anyone else know of anyone...

it has been a long time since i posted on this topic that i started. I started it in october 2007 when i bowled a 596 series and as many of you have read missed out on a 600 series. Unfortunately ive come close two more times over the last couple of months. November last year I bowled a...

Well hardly much has happened over the last couple of months. Ive been having some trouble with my left knee and lately ive been having problems with my back. I got a heat reatiner that i wear on my knee and i think tonight that ill put on some kind of back brace as it can get quite...

Not much has happened lately. In other words, I still havent got a 600 series yet. We restarted our Monday night league last week and i started off with a 544 series. I had a good finish to my last league, in the last 7 weeks i only bowled less than 500 on 2 occassions (both 497), the...

My biggest 3 game series is the subject of another thread in this forum. But for those of you interested my best 3 game series is: 188, 198, 213 Those 3 games come to a heartbreaking 599, this was way back in 1997. The closest i've come since then is a 596 in October last year...
