I want to bowl a perfect game. It would mean alot to me and I would feel so good and I would be able to say that i’ve bowled a 300 game before i died. Last night at my league, i Got over 1 major hump in the road, I bowled my first turkey, and I had only been bowling for a couple months, Im not that good, avg 110, but I felt so good after my turkey.
How to bowl a 300 game
How I did it: I began bowling in 2002. I started with a 105 avg. But I wanted to be better. I asked for tips from the guys who ran the pro shop. He got me started. Eventually I met more people who had an excellent eye. They were able to assist in tweaking a few details about my bowling. 5 years later, I bowled my first 300 game. Depending on the lanes, I now average between 186-202.
Lessons & tips: DO NOT CONSTANTLY CHANGE BALLS IN A GAME.
I carry 4 bowling balls. I know what each one will do. I have one main ball that I always throw a few times. That tells me if I should stay or switch. Then I stick with one ball. You have to be able to control what you throw. If you have no control you can't be consistent.
Reading the lanes. Knowing when lanes are oily vs. dry. Knowing the best way to adjust. Some people move back and forward. Others move side to side. I'm lucky, I can do either. It's Key to find out what works best for you.
Consistency is key. I have the same approach every time, well I try, not always 100%.
Always Follow through
Resources: Pro shops. Sometimes they can give you great pointers. I stick with one shop. He knows how I throw, I have him recommend whats best for me.

This is one goal that I know in my heart I will accomplish someday. If not very soon. I get so close all the time… it’s just a matter of time!

Maybe learning a few trickshots would be just as satisfying? How cool would it be to nail the Flying Eagle?!? Although when would I get the opportunity to practice?

Hmm, on second thought… this is risky objective in that it could require a great deal of time and money – like waiting to be dealt a flush or trying to befriend an exotic dancer.
This past weekend I finally bowled a 300. The best part was it was in the NC State tournament. I had a 790 series 300, 258, 232.

... and was quite shaky both times stepping up into the 9th frame. I could only imagine how it must feel when in the 12th frame.
Tonight I bowled a 720 series, bowling a 245, 241, 234. The irony being that it was “sweeps” night where with a $15 entry fee the high handicap series takes home the pot. I wasn’t feeling very lucky so I didn’t enter, but would have won. Also noteworthy is that this 720 was on the same 2 lanes that my previous best 719 was on.
Another life goal. I enjoy rolling a heavy ball at 10 stationary pins and watching them explode. Maybe one day I can get good enough to score a perfect 300.
The best that I have been able to get is a 296 about 5 years ago. This season I almost made it again but finnished with a 289.
last night in my second game i bowled the perfect 300. it was the first at the bowling alley in gaffney sc. i was got 500 dollars, they ordered one of those rings, and free games for life. i was excited when friday i posted a 298 i knew it could done that was my 4th 298 game. i average in the 240-250 range. i am 20 years old and just statred to bowl regulary the past 7 months.
