About Parker Bohn III

Parker Morse Bohn III (born July 13, 1963) is an American left-handed professional ten-pin bowler. He has been a member of the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) since 1984, and is a member of the PBA and USBC Halls of Fame. Bohn is one of only eight players in PBA history to accumulate at least 30 career PBA Tour titles, currently ranking fifth all-time with 35 (including three majors). He has 11 more titles (two majors) on the PBA50 Tour (formerly PBA Senior Tour). He is a two-time PBA Player of the Year (1999, 2001–02) and has won a PBA50 Player of the Year award (2022). Bohn has also earned 2 PBA60 Tour title, 22 PBA Regional Tour titles, 17 PBA50 Regional titles, and two European Bowling Tour (EBT) titles. Bohn has earned over $3.3 million in PBA events — only the fourth PBA player to top the $3 million mark. Bohn also won the $150,000 winner-take-all prize in the 2008 Motel 6 Roll to Riches event, but the earnings in this event did not count toward PBA career totals. Through the 2018 season, he has thrown 114 career perfect 300 games in PBA competition, including the 13th PBA nationally televised 300 game at the 1998 ABC Masters in Reno, Nevada. Bohn has been a member of the Brunswick pro staff since 1984, and continues to have a role with the company through the present day. Bohn's best career stretch was from 1997 through 2001–02, during which he won 18 titles overall and at least one title each season. The '99 season featured a streak in which Parker won eight consecutive televised matches.
