I'm horrible at bowling, most likely due to the fact that I've gone maybe only a dozen or so times throughout my life.
My highest is like a 112 or so (over 110 I'm sure), and my lowest is like a 54. And I was trying.

I've never bowled a 300, not even close.
best I've ever bowled was about a 225 or something like that
I was stuck at 185 for soooo long that I thought I would never break the 200 mark, but aftrer I broke 200 i did it only a couple more times and then never again.
I haven't bowled in a while(a year or so) but I plan on getting back into it soon.

Bahaha, same here.
Bead was 180-something. My ex was taking a bowling class (yeah...I was like wtf too) and was talking mad trash. I started off with a turkey, then proceeded to blow her doors off. I told her before that I only bowled like 3 times too, which was the truth. Got some sports superstar sex that night. :lol Otherwise, I suck royally. I have smallish hands. Engineers hands, I like to call them. 
But it gives me difficulty gripping the ball and getting any good amount of rotation. Same problem with hoops and my handle there. Finally got over my problem with football though. I guess there's a reason I played soccer and baseball growing up. PEACE.

I think the best I've gotten is 162.
The most insane story ever concerning bowling though.
My best friend's older brother died in a car accident about 8 months ago. He and his dad used to go bowling every Monday night when he was home from college. The first Monday night after his death, his father went bowling and rolled his first perfect game. That's gotta bring a tear to your eye.

I was just bowling earlier today and got my highest game ever at 174.
that was the first time I've gone bowling in years so I'm pretty sure it was just luck, also that was our third game of the night and in the game prior I manged to bowl 6 gutters in a row, I was doing something wonky with my wrist that I didn't realize which was just putting a huge spin on the ball and rolling into the gutter, but thankfully I eventually figured it out.

186 being my highest ever.
Average is 130.
I need my own bowling ball.

Me, too.
My high is like 117 :lol
I had five straight strikes once, then the next 3 rounds were goose eggs. I don't know how anybody can do that, but I did it.
Pretty much all recreational lanes are made so that balls curve in, decreasing the chance for a gutter ball and increasing scores. Playing at the local lane is like shooting up on steroids before playing baseball. You still need to have skill, but making the lanes noob friendly is how they stay in business. If you ever get the chance try playing at a pro lane. You score will decrease dramtically.

136 best score here. I'm a pretty good straight bowler, can usually hit the middle pin and the one to either side of it at once, but those fuckers just choose which ones fall over on their own. can't curve it for shit.
Amusingly, my friend who I thought was an idiot for seeing what the highest number he could rack up on the speedometer on the lane instead of knocking down pins, has now mastered the technique and scores higher than me...

Took the words from outta my mouth.
I swear my record is like 120, and that was enough to win. Rarely go bowling, and half the time when we do we're too busy pissing around. Plus, bowling fucks up my thumb for some reason. Still got the red mark on my thumb from the last time we went about 2 weeks ago.
I've only ever gone bowling a handful of times, and, like pretty much any other sport or game, my performance seems to be completely and totally random with no underlying logic behind it whatsoever. Last time I bowled (a few years ago now) I got about a 160, which is probably the highest I've ever got, and was actually quite fun as I was playing against a "serious" bowler (by that I mean the sort of guy who owns his own ball and shoes) and managed to beat him by just a couple of points, which pissed him off to no end (he hadn't had his best game, as you can imagine). Other than that my scores would range randomly for about 50 upwards.

I usually bowl around 140-60 when I'm not tanked, not that I bowl much. A couple times I've cracked 200.

my highest is either 235 or 245 at some fancy super oiled up plastic feeling lanes, i can't remember. I bowled in a league for 3 years while I was in college at a little shit old school bowling alley with the worst lanes ever. My average went from 129 to 160 to to 140. That place had real wood lanes with horrible pin action. Looking back, it was fairly impressive that I averaged 160 considering I never bowled over 200 there.
