11 in a row

Hah!

I've got 1 x 290 (1st 11 - gutter) 3 x 296, 4 x 297, 5 x 298, and 2 x 299.

Thank goodness I got 15 300's to match. Still only batting .500
 
Several years ago a good mate of mine got what I am sure is the NZ record for consecutive strikes without getting a 300 - 20 in a row. last 11 of a 290 and the first 9 of a 279.

Unfortunately he passed away in a car accident a few months later, he never did get the magic 300. But his parents gave me his ball as a momento, and several months later I shot my first 300 with it.

Personally I have gone spare 12-bagger for a 290, one of the strikes in the middle was on the wrong lane so it didn't count. Serves me right.

David.
 
About 20 months back I had the last 5 in a row for 190, started the next game with the front eleven in the hole and crossed over and left the 5-pin last ball for 299, and started the next game with the front 6. Ended up 750-odd for the night.
So 16 in a row, 22 out of 23 shots with no 300 involved.
Had 20 in a row over two consecutive nights another time, last 5 for 224, 300 in the last game, then had the first 3 in the first game the following night, blew the string with some softcock shot like an 8-10 or something. :-s
 
I have had 11 in a row with a 7/ at the start of the game. Lucky l have bowled a 300 game before that
 
i have known a bowler who threw a gutter on the first ball spared the gutter on the first frame then finished the game with 11 strikes to bowl a 290, but an unofficial 12 pocket balls in a row.
 
not sure but it might hav been adam bennett, -/ next 10 gutter for 280... should have been 11 in a row... bout 4 years ago i think
 
best i have had is 22 in a row for no 300s
spare, 11 ina row for 290. next game front 11 10 pin 299

22 in a row no 300
 
bout 1 month or maybe 2 months back went 1st 9 then 9 pin (im lefty) stood there for ages lol spared it gave it the salute it deserved and striked for 279 lol


week after went xx 9/ (another 9 pin) x x x x x x x x 9 (9 pin again) for a 278



early in the league i did 1st 10 then left a 5 pin some how, for a 289 game
 
about 6 months ago i went solid 7 pin (im a right hander) then 11 in a row, and my next shot was a strike
 
2 14 baggers over 2 games (once at Woodville in SA masters, once in leauge down here)
Plus a last 3 then first 10 the next game at Warnambool cup this year, then i get up and 2-8-10 the 11th for 285!!!!!:mad:
 
I've had 3 clayton's 300's... But my cousin bowled gutter/spare, 8 bagger, gutter/spare-strike for a 270 game... Only bowled one 300 in practice at Wagga Wagga bowl... had the last 4 in one game then 12 in the next... Havent beaten that yet.
 
Scott Brown was junior I bowled with in the 80's who was awesome when he got it going. (He inspired me to become a cranker.) One day he bowled...

F(X)/ F(X)/ X X X X X X X XXX 260 (14 bagger.)

With a Brunswick LT-48. A rubber ball.

Your spare ball hits better than one of those things these days.

Now there is a name from the past..... I bet he then went and put his head through the locker!
 
Last year i threw...
16 in a row for a 289
14 in a row for a 299

very frustrating....
