    From what i hear i can order a ring from Keepsake, they don't care if i bowled a 300 or not, they will sell it to me. I get why they don't want to count it, it was just me and my partner pushing the oil around so i had the same shot for the whole game... At my age maybe i should order the ring, it may be my last 300... its only money.

    Per USBC rule 50, if the 300 was bowled while post-bowling, unopposed, it will not count.
    That seems fair to me for it not counting for USBC. Your not bowling against competition and the lane conditions are not league oiled. Probably less oil. Still a nice score!

    Correct on both. If you bowl on your regular league night and other team does not show, you have other teams and likely your league officers there as "observers". In my tuesday league, there is 37 teams, so one team is always bowling the blind. The team bowling the blind is always on the pair next to us and a guy threw an 824 series one week. It counted since it was on regular league night.

    Default Hey Gene!!! TRI-GRIP

    James, our driller, and bowling buddy, bowled a 300 yesterday while I was there! He did it in Post bowling for his Sunday league! He had a 792! ALMOST THAT 800!!! James had another one on league last week! That's like two in a few weeks!
    Again he uses the Tri-Grip system that he drilled himself!

    I believe your 300 ball had the Tri-grip also... correct?

    I would order it if I were you Gene, but since you are much younger then ICEMAN, and I had two this last year, I THINK THERE WILL BE MANY more to come!! Age is just a number, I don't let it dictate what I can, or can not do! LOL! I bet you have another one in less then 6 months!!!

    That is true. My dad turns 70 in February and has had over 6 300 games in the last 5+ years plus 3 800 series. Member ID: 222-26456

    Yeah, and guess who James PRE-bowled against when he bowled that 300/792? Me and my teammate of course! Looks like I'll have to shoot a 300 right back on him on Sunday, or at least have a very big series so hopefully we can win a couple games.
