shot my first honor score tonight
« on: March 29, 2007, 03:08:54 PM »
After 3 1/2 years of league bowling, I went 299 with a stone 8 on a very solid 12th shot. the 11th shot was bad (tripped the 2 when I went uber high) but aside from that, everything else was balls deep.

Yes, I am looking for sympathy since that stupid 12th shot was money!!!

In all the 6 300's I have had, the always "terrible" shot in them all is in the 11th. Look at Ryan Shafer's 11th shot, barely gets the 10.

Stone 8 you really can't do anything about. My coach calls it the real NO TAP pin for RH bowlers.

Congatulations!  I'm sure a 300 is right round the corner.

Let's not talk about that part.

It was a weird night. I was very tired from work, and almost asked my teammates to find a sub. The pair we were on ahd a ton of over/under for some reason on the left lane, so I shot the 299 with a Saturn on lane 2 playing  straight up 8, and a pearl thuderstruck on lane 1 shooting 15 at the arrows to 6! The 299 was my lead off game and I pretty much shot my wad, I'll just say my last game I went thru a few ball changes trying to chase the right lane and had four different splits for the 3rd game
