300 + 300 + 300 = 900

I'm hoping for the best. Go get 'em!

But if I misread the rules and it's closest without going over, then 0 + 0 + 0 = 0 for the win!

j/k I miss my grampa too :( He's up there, smiling.

Sorry for your loss. Bowling is a great game. What was your grandpa's average?

My guess is 220 + 201 + 236 = 657

My grandpa averaged in the 150's when I bowled with him, but in his glory days he was in the 190's which would equate to around 210 or 215 now that the bowling balls are so much better than the older ones were.

What kind of ball do you use?

I just got my Storm 2furious drilled on tuesday, used it for the first time yesterday. Works great! I'm averaging 197 right now.

I also have a Hammer Arson, and my Brunswick Slingshot as my spare, or for dry lanes

I think that you will shoot 219, 235, 207 for a 661. Good Luck!

And I'm sorry for your loss

Cool contest and I am sorry about your loss too.

I used to be a pretty decent bowler, but that was with the much tougher candlepins!

my guess: 616: 190, 216, 210

dear friend rkrj,
you are one of the most giving and caring people I think I met on this forum. You just finished a big contest with the new NFL contest and now you are onto another one.
Seeing how I participated in that contest I will let others get in on this one. I just wanted to once again thank you and let everyone here on the CCf know how great of a guy you seem to be. Sorry one last time to hear about grandpa. I am also 22 and have one grandpa left but luckily both grandmas. Some of the wisest people I know.
Continue being you my friend, some people I have met on the CCF continue to amaze me.
Chris
