My first honor score
« on: March 18, 2009, 10:13:44 PM »
299 last last night.
AMF Code (RICO layout) playing 18 to 8.
First 11 consisted of 2 light mixers and 9 flush.
Last ball rolled up flush, but hit a little flat. As the ball entered the pocket, I expected a 10-pin, but left a 7-pin instead.
Still working on that elusive 300!

The adrenalin got to me after the first game. I shot 224 and a whopping 180 for 703

My only time(s) throwing 11 have been after a spare or open in the first.  Can't seem to maintain my poise past 8 or 9.  Perhaps tranquilizers would help?

Way to go, Jon! After watching you bowl at The Gathering, you couldn't have convinced me you didn't already have a half-dozen or more honor scores. You'll surely get your 300 soon.
