Highest league avg for a season?

[GeorgeF]

Just wondering if people could post the highest league avg you have bowled for a season. I'm trying to get some information together on who has the highest league avg for a season in Australia.

I finished on 228 last year at Caboolture in my teams league, surely there are some higher single league averages out there. Anyway care to post name and avg please,

thanks

i threw 233 (64) at legends in 2001, but mine was only a doubles league

i have a feeling poppy hughes shot 230+ at burleigh in about 1998/99

I finished up with a 173 avg for tuesday teenagers leauge at kingaroy. Hoping to get that avg up to 180 - 190 by the end of this season

Best ave for me was a 195 in sydney id 2003

Craig,

Singles, Doubles, Teams, I dont mind, just wondering whats the highest

Thx for your reply, 233 takes it at the moment

 

[jason_doust]

223 for 96 games... with a urethane ball in 1990. (Pretty sure it was a record back then.)

Just averaged 217 for 100+ games in my first league back since then. Better keep plugging away at it, I guess...

Glen Loader was carrying a 239 ave a few weeks before xmas with only a few weeks to go in Overlanders league at Keon Park. will check and see wht it is after tonight.

218 for a doubles league at woodville in sa

My personal highest was 213.10 in Sponsors League back in 2002, that was the all-time Moonah record at the time.
Subsequently broken the following year by Ray Tilla with 216.27 in the Jan-June season of Centre League.

Paul Lucock set a 221 average record in Centre League about two years ago in the June-Dec season, and I believe Andrew Phillips may have also shot a 221 in one particular league around the same time (Wellington League I think).

Note: Lucock did hit 229 in Sponsors League around the same time but hadn't bowled the required 66⅔% of the season's games to qualify for the averages (about 3 under from memory), therefore is not counted.

Tiger... correct, I finished on 221 for a season in Wellington a couple of years ago... next best in the league was 199, and also had a 220 ave in Classic Doubles on a 2nd shift shot.

I know Rod Stewart averaged over 235 for a season in the EFL singles league a couple of years ago, for 4 games a week, 28 week season. Not sure exact average though.

I think Paul Longayroux finished Wednesday night Doubles league last year at Village Bowl SA with 230+.....20 week season (someone might have to confirm)

 

[terry penguin]

my highest career league average is my current average of 189 at southgate i

 

[}-Adam-{]

Mine was 228, with a high of 268... that was at warners bay in 04-05.
Neil "The Don" Donnelly finished with a low 240 ave at strikezone i am pretty sure, waiting for confirmation of this as we speak.

 

[~Mrs STORM~]

Actually, I think Neils highest ave after one of (if not the) first season of Brunswick Trios at Strikezone was mid - high 230s.
From memory he still has the highest league in the centre at present being somewhere between high 220s to low 230s.

 

[bradwick]

Finished with 207 at Northcote on wood

 

[MinusZero]

My highest average over a league was 183.78 over 132 games. doesnt seem like much compared to others here, but its my highest so far. Am on the way up though, thats up 5 pins on previous league of over 100 games.

this is an interesting topic george i now it is 4 weeks old now but i would like to add an extra part to your original question. what type of lanes was/is the average bowled on wood or synthetic as there is a considerable difference in performance between the 2 types. mine is a 218 ave over 144 games double league on wood lanes. currently edging towards a 220+ ave for this season.

i have only came back in the last few months after being out of the game for a long time.I was lucky enough to see george and Jason bowl in an exebition at Berri.my highest was in the early 80's and this was a 199 average, not like you guys today.This was only over a 10 week period playing at the old Hurstville ten pin Bowls.Many considered this a hard centre to bowl at in the old days.
