Big Game – Joshua Lowell

Well, we have our first big game from one of the kids from the Candlepins for Kids tour!

I would love to see a scoresheet if possible but I am going to post this anyway because it’s awesome.  Here is Josh’s story.

Josh bowls out of Bogey Lanes in East Brookfield, Ma and on every other night there is a doubles league with a $200.00 first prize.  Josh is one of the subs for the league, and on the first day his first match was Dan “Shoe” Gauthier and Phil Clough.  Josh started off strong with a 114, and then bettered it second string with a 145.  The third game he started out with a 52 half, and then he caught fire.  Josh proceeded to throw Shoe like numbers by going nine drop spare, strike, strike, six-spare, eight fill ten box for a 94 second half, 146 total for the string, and 405 series.

Josh – to answer you, yes it qualifies as a Big Game by Everything Candlepin standards.  You keep throwing em, we’ll gladly keep recognizing you!

For future fireballers that crush Shoe – or anyone for that matter – try to include an image so the site has more media.  I want to see INK!

Great job following up the 405 by going 130, and 133 against a legend in Steve Renaud Sr. and Ma Renaud for an unofficial 668 on the day!

UPDATE: Here’s our star just prior to starting some action on the lanes at Bogey.  Josh is 17 years old and these are his home lanes.  It turns out the first prize is actually $2000.00 not $200.00!  Good luck Josh!
