Title: Ever heard of this happening before?
Post by: Walking E on August 27, 2013, 02:40:35 AM
So tonight I am bowling sweeps (against Scott Norton, just to namedrop :D) and over a four-frame span I leave the back row.

What's even weirder is that I left it in succession - first the 7-pin, then the 8-pin, then the 9-pin, and then the 10-pin!

But the craziest thing about this is that I did it in the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th frames! :P

I thought my craziest moment this summer was when I left three straight solid 8-pins, but I think this topped it!

I have not seen that, but it sounds impressive!

I have a friend who has done it a few times.  We call him "The King of Carry".   ;D

Was bowling a Sr regional once.  Had the match well in hand.  9th Frame left the 7-8.  No problem, still in good shape.  10th frame, left the 7-8 again.  Lost by 4 sticks.  One thing about this game.  It's never over till its over.

I know, right?

Well, I'm certainly not the first bowler to leave the back row on four consecutive shots. It was just funny to A) leave them in ascending order (7-8-9-10), and B) to have the frame numbers match the pins that I left standing.

Now that I think about it, I left the three consecutive 8-pins on the same pair that I left the back row last night!! WTH?

That was a very unusual coincidence. 

I left back to back 7-10s once, ended up with three in that one game.  Best forgotten. :)
