    I've been doing no tap tournaments every month lately. They are a lot of fun. VERY tough competition though. They give smaller cash prizes to the people who finish first and second with averages under 175.

    I have to agree with you there, I too would love to try a no-tap tournament.
    Being a lefty, I am always throwing at that nasty, concrete filled, bolted to the floor 7 pin, LOL.

    It took me a few years to bowl well in no-tap games. If you think you only need 9, you will only get 7 or 8.

    Congrats! Sounds like a halfway decent night! hahaha.

    So, I'm not a tournament bowler. What does that mean, "9 pin, no tap?"
    Not helping the situation since 1983.

    9 count on first ball counts as a strike

    True story. In the games where I bowl 300s, most of my strikes are legit anyway. The rest were wobbly nines.
