Title: Bowler leaves 5-7-10 on last ball....for 799!!!
Post by: REVOLUTIONS PS on March 11, 2004, 06:00:46 PM: This past Monday night in the men's major handicap league at my home house a fellow left a 5-1-10 on his fill ball in the third game for 799! I didn't believe it when I heard but several people saw it and told me it was a fact.

And I felt bad because I left a pocket 7-10 in my fill ball for 699!

Post by: Scolai on March 12, 2004, 11:16:36 AM: I posted a 269 of game 1. Got up in the 10th in game 2 on a strike and needed the first one in the 10th to shoot 231 or better. Crushed the pocket and left a stone solid 7 pin. Spared, struck for 228. No big deal, I thought. What are the chances I would throw a 298 or better in game 3 for 800 anyway?

Game 3 - 299 for a 796. I'm not nearly as irritated about the 6 pin in the 12th of game 3 as I am with that 7 pin in game 2.

If horse racing is the sport of kings, then surely bowling is a very good sport as well.

I guess he tugged it and the ball just 'hydroplaned' into the pocket with nothing on it. I don't know if he has ever had 800 before, my guess would be that he has...he owns a center near hear and has scored well there for years.

Post by: TheBowlingKid25 on March 12, 2004, 02:35:44 PM: they'd both piss me off really bad but the 799 would just kill me, i would break down and cry right on the approach

AM not A CHICK OF BOWLING but I wanted to be in Manda's clique And why would I "saw" pins in half, THATS A WASTE OF PINS! I'd rather blow it over with my storm, and 21mph ball speed on dry shots.

Post by: Juggernaut on March 12, 2004, 02:55:41 PM: It happens. Just last night I had the front 11, then right out of he**, comes the virtual rolling turd. I still don't know what I did, but I missed my mark outside by 2 boards and didn't put any fingers in the ball. Left the 2-4-5 bucket for 297.

Ok I was wondering. You had 5-7-10 in the heading but put 5-1-10 in the post. I figured it was the 5-7-10.
