Shot my 4th 300 last night
« on: May 31, 2005, 09:03:30 PM »
Bowling in a league called Battle of the Sexes, great league!  I was throwing my Silver Streak Pearl, and my first game was standing on 20 with my left foot, and trying to throw it out to 5.  Well it wasn't really working, I was forcing the ball into the pocket and was just getting tapped the first game.  I left the 6-10 in the first frame and chopped the 6 off.  I ended up with a 196 game.  

Second game my brother told me I needed to move left and create some area and not try to force it.  So I moved everything 5 left, and 12 strikes later I shot 300.  My brother said I had about a 10 board area and I couldnt miss.

Last game I started with the first 4, and then I left a pocket 7-10.  Just seems wierd how I couldnt miss, and the first thing I leave after stringing 16 in a row, left a 7-10.  I ended up shooting a 240 - 736.

Nice shootin!!  300's sure are fun...

...but I agree it is odd when you miss the move after a 300.  My first sanctioned one it took 4 frames and a ball change before I was comfortably back in the hole.  I was so pumped towards the end of my 300 that the extra ball speed, etc. made me miss the move that I should've made.
