Came across a file that I’d thrown some certificates / medals, old score sheets etc. in
.
The numbers are a bit unsettling – especially if I reach 90
They go like this:- when I came back to bowling after 30 years, and aged 61, and up to my mid 60s, 600 series were common run-of-the-mill scores.
After 65, 650s and upward were fairly regular.
At the Pan Pacific Masters Games ( I think in 2002 ), my opening series was 699.
I was aged 69 in 2002 !!
Had a few medical / surgical probs for a while about then, and after a couple of false starts came back pretty good in 2008. A few days after I got to 75, I bowled 750. -- well – not really, it was only 749.
Now at 78, I’m finding the 3rd game a bit of an effort sometimes, so I don’t know quite how I’m going to keep this number thing up in under two years time when I’m 80.
90 has got me really worried !!!
