This is one of my teammates...he was working on a 19 bagger heading into the 10th frame of game 2. Final ball was tugged, but he got away with it for his 90th 300 game. He was using a Roto Grip Hyper Cell Skid.

That guy throws it great. I know i have heard that name before, mason brantley. I know he has won a lot of stuff, including maybe detroit masters?

If I never get a 300, I honestly hope I never get that close. I would be completely freaking out. :)

I've always heard a good rule of thumb when throwing the last shot when going for a 300, that moving your feet is a good idea. A lot of people let the nerves get to them and tend to throw a faster shot.

When I threw one earlier this season, i pulled the first shot in the 10th and got lucky. Knowing I had gotten lucky didn't make me nervous for the last two shots.

I love his reaction, haha. That's a good one. 90 300s? I'll be happy with my first :P

Lol.....I imagine even if I played on the easiest lanes around I'd still never get to NINETY 300 games. That's pretty damn good.

Yea, 90 is not shabby at all. I know a few others that have about that many. Wonder what the record is right now.

Wonder how many 800's he has also.

One of my buddies has 60 300's and 30 800 series. Another teammate for my Nationals team is up in the 80's on 300's and 50's on 800's.

Yes....LG TONE Bluetooth earbuds.

Curious, what's the reason for wearing them? Just to focus and tune out?

Yep. Quite a few bowlers in our area wear them while bowling.

Did anyone notice the bowlers next to him did not appear to be very good bowlers? Split and a couple of opens....

Do they just have them on when they are on the approach? I might want to talk to my teammate.

I tend not to notice ear buds. The bowlers who wear headphones seem to leave them on if they don't have a lot of time between frames, like bowling doubles.
