Picked up a 7-10 last night
« on: April 09, 2007, 10:15:00 AM »
Sure it was purely by luck but it was still pretty sweet.

hit the ten pin down into the pit.. it bounced of something and came back across the lane and tripped the 7.  

officially the first (and probably last) 7-10 i've ever made.

Congrats! At least you saw it being made. Most people turn away in disgust and don't even see it.

Cool. Congratulations!!!

As a side note: some youth fellows from my club tried to get the 5-7-10 in practice (just for fun) - and with a sanded 6 lbs. house ball, tons of revs and lower speed onto the 5 pin's side they even made it after 20 attempts.

I actually flat hand my black widow to pick up 10 pins... it hit the 10 like any other 10 pin pickup.. i just got lucky and had it bounce off something in the pit.  it was actually pretty cool looking...

I almost picked up the big four practicing a couple weeks ago. I shot at he 6-10 and the six slid over and took out the 4 pin, and the 7 pin wobbled a little but didn't fall.

Congrats!

I love picking up the 7-10.  I don't leave it that often anymore, but I have picked it up 4 times now.  Twice in practice and twice in league.

Congrats...I left it last night in league twice, luckily last time was on ball 12 so I didn't have to try it, but just got the 10 the first time.

Congrats on picking up the 7-10 man!

I made the Big Four in practice, but it wasn't exactly the big four because it was really the 3-4-6-7-10 haha. All i hit was the 4-6-7-10! I'm good lol

Any time you pick up the 7-10, it's luck.  Don't talk yourself out of an accomplishment many will never achieve.  My Uncle bowls like crazy, and picks it up a couple times a year.  Of course, he averages 215+ on sport.  
--------------------
Mr. Lebowski, this is Bill Salnicker with the Southern Cal Bowling League, and I just got a, an informal report, that a member of your team, uh, Walter Sobchak, drew a firearm during league play. If this is true of course, it contravenes a number of the league's by-laws, and article 27 of the league...

I invented America.

Way to go.

One time I took out the 7-10 only out of the Greek Church.

"And Shepherds we shall be
For thee, my Lord, for thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand
Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee
And teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Et Spiritus Sancti."
