I made the 7--10 tonight!
« on: August 09, 2006, 03:10:40 PM »
what a crazy night.
I made the 7--10 tonight
too bad it didnt count.
I left the 4-6-7-10 split.
Grabbed my plastic ball and chucked it a fast as I could.
Next thing you know the 10 bounces of the back of the deck into my bowling ball straight at the 7 pin.


has anyone out there have something similar happen to them as well?

A friend of mine picked it up in practice before league started.  He also picked the Big Four out of the Greek Church (the 9-pin was left untouched).  I almost picked up the 7-10 a few weeks ago, only the 7-pin wasn't there.  I've seen that done a few other times as well.  I also saw a guy pick up the 4-6 by bouncing the 4-pin out of the pit, onto the approach, and then bounce off the sweeper (before it started moving, so it was legal) into the 6.  Stunning.

I've seen the 7-10 made once and the big four once as well.  Same league about 2 weeks apart.

Also a guy on another league left the 6-7-10 picked off the 10 and left the 6, it jumped the pit and took out the 7...6 remaining....it was kinda neat.

Wooohooo!! Congratulations! I am still waiting for my lucky shot at the 7-10, and I guess that a ricochet shot at a corner pin's inside, having it bounce back and topple over into the other corner, is the best strategy. Well done (even probably not on purpose? )

I have only gotten the big four once, but another time i sent the 10 pin over the 4-7 back out onto the lane. One of the craziest things Ive ever seen lol!

Wow in open play I got the Big four, just really text book wise, the ball hit the right side of the six and sent it flying and it hit the 4-7. And i've also taken the 7-10 out of the big four. This was only in practice but still its funny and cool at the same time to see.

I was bowling in a college tournament and was leading the inviduals going into the last game.  I was having a pretty good game, nothing too spectacular, so things were getting close.  Step up in the ninth frame and left the 7-10.  I was so hot I couldn't see straight.  I reared back and threw it as hard as I can at the 10 (about 25 mph) and bounced it off the curtain into the 7.  Doubled in the tenth and won by only 5 pins.  I had a grin ear-to-ear for a week after that one.

I made my first 7-10 at a tournament 2 months ago.

It felt great.
