Smith turns in 300 game
During summer league play at the Garden City Bowling Lanes last week, Steve Smith of Woodbury bowled a 12-strike No Tap 300 game. Smith used only three No Tap frames to pick up his 300 game, one coming in the first, sixth and first ball in the 10th frame.
” This was very exciting, it’s like getting a hole-in-one for a golfer,” said Smith.
“The best game I have ever bowled has been a 264 and never thought I would roll a 300. I didn’t think about it until the seventh frame and then I started to get a little nervous. When I started to bowl the next frame I noticed several people watching after they realized I was working on a 300 game. I tried not to look up and just kept focussed in hopes of not putting a jinx on myself. After rolling my last strike I was swarmed by congratulations from fellow bowlers.”
Smith’s team members include Danny Sutton, Jr. Medley and Joey Haston. Smith’s team was bowling against the team of Kenneth and Jennifer Felty and Ryan and Christy Muncey.
