I DID IT!!!!
« on: February 11, 2005, 02:51:32 PM »
Tonight in league, I picked up the 7-10 split!!! First time ever for me!! I didnt even think it was real!! I was and still am sooo pumped up about it.

I threw a darn good ball and left a pocket 7-10, so I picked up my Cow spare ball and fired at the 10. The ball hit the right side of the 10 knocking it into the pit. Well, the 10 looked like it did a somersault and the head of the 10 popped up on the other side knocking over the 7. I was in amazement!! I still am!! It doesnt feel like it really happened, but it did. I cannot believe it!!

On edit, I forgot to mention the bad news...

It was in my Friday night mixed league which is UNSANCTIONED!!

Go Figure!!

I just close my eyes and throw the ball

Congratulations, Ryan.  Too bad it was unsanctioned but still a great feat.

congrats man thats a good thing to do.
just on a side note i once watched a friend of mine through his spare ball so hard at the 7 pin the ball fell into the gutter just short of the pin, bounced out took the 7 pin and bounced out of the pit and took the 10 pin. that was a wierd day
well done one yours anyway

Congrats on your conversion.

If you check out bowl.com's records someone made the 7-10 in back to back frames. My dad found this out when checking, after I nearly made it back to back weeks. Ive made it twice, shooting the 7 pin once and shooting the 10 pin the other.
