That’s what ace bowlers Russell Booth, Charles Kenny, Karl Kurtz and Rusty Bryant wanted to know as they posed for a photo in the Winnetka Bowl pro-shop last week.

The foursome represented a whopping 218 perfect games among them.

Englehart and Tripp are frequent visitors to Winnetka Bowl but they weren’t around this Tuesday night. The two elite bowlers would have padded that perfecto number by more than a hundred – easily.

As it was, Booth, Kenny, Kurtz and Bryant had to be content with representing a couple of hundred perfectos – not to mention 127 800 series.

Here’s the breakdown: Kenny, 92 perfectos, 60 800 se- ries, 244 average; Bryant, 68 perfectos, 35 800s, 217 aver- age; Kurtz, 46 perfectos, 28 800s, 225 average; and Booth, 12 perfectos, four 800s, 221 average. Here is the fearsome foursome: from left, Russell Booth, Karl Kurtz, Rusty Bryant and Charles Kenny. That’s a lot of talent in one room.

He travels the same distance with partner Bill O’Neill of Langhorne, Pa. – is assured of winning more than the $2,000 each way - but what is the average speed of his entire journey? he needs to exceed $1 million in official PBA Tour earnings. At age 33 and bowling in his 131st PBA Tour event, he will shatter the record for reaching $1 million in the fewest Answer: 72 MILES PER HOUR. Let’s say it’s 60 miles (it’s not necessary to know the actual number of events, previously held by Wes Malott who broke the million-dollar barrier distance) to the auto shop, so it takes him an hour to get there on the first trip. Therefore it when he won the 2013 U.S. Open in his 180th event. takes him 40 minutes to get home, at 90 miles per hour (or 1.5 miles per minute). So, he’s traveled a total of 120 miles in 100 minutes, or an average speed of 1.2 miles per minute: 1.2 The youngest player to reach $1 million in career earnings was who was times 60 equals 72 mile per hour. 26 in 1989 when he reached the milestone in his 253rd Tour event.
