Also in the other game where I had 3 together, same thing!! IT WON’T HAPPEN Again, that could have been a 700 plus again number 4 in the last month and a half!! LOL8/bowling682-1.jpg Almost did it again!! 11 strikes!!!

Almost! If you just would have had the focus the first frame like you did the next 9 frames, you would have had it!

Definitely keep at it, I had 2 290s, 3 299s and countless 289s and 279s before I ever got my first 300. I am still looking for that first 800 though!

My closest to 300 game was all strikes but a spare in the 8th frame for a 278 total. I would like to get at least one 300 game before I get out of bowling. Good luck reeling a 300 game in.

When I do bowl that 300 game, I am having a party at my place for all of you!!! It will be a Mike/Jason party! (( I mean Iceman, Dude )) party! If I bowl a 800 series It will be one HELL RAISER, of a PARTY!!

DV8 Marauder Madness!!! All the way! Great ball! I also have to say the Red Marauder gave me my 749 last week, posted the score card!

Yes they are and the Nightmare is stronger yet. I drilled a Nightmare, Marauder Madness and a Misfir for my teammate the day after they became available. They look quite inviting but with my slower speed and rev rate i don'y know where i would throw them. I can't throw my Primal Screams and they are both much longer than the new DV8 releases

Too bad you didn't take one more practice shot, then you would have had it. Wait, no you would have started with 9, so 290. Unless you missed the spare, then it would have still been 279.
OK, you needed TWO more practice balls. Then you would have had it. No wait, you started the second game with 9 so you would have had 299. I guess the stars weren't lined up right. Better luck next time. LOL
