78-year-old Blind Man Bowls Perfect Game

It's enough that a 78-year-old bowled a perfect game, but to top it off, Dale Davis of Alta, Iowa is also legally blind.

"It's a great sport. It's something the young, the old and the handicapped can do," Davis said Thursday. "I guess I count as the old and handicapped."

Although Davis is not completely blind, he has suffered from macular degeneration, a chronic eye disease, for the past decade. Davis is completely blind in his left eye and has limited peripheral vision in his right eye.

Davis' league average is 180. He says the only time he sees the ball is when he picks it up, but he can usually tell how his throw went by sound. All 12 tosses sounded great to Davis.
