Title: not AGAIN
Post by: matt smith on May 17, 2004, 05:17:34 PM: I thought i was going to break the drought since my first 300 tonight, but instead I broke the drought since my last 299 . I left a 2 pin AGAIN! What makes it worse is that I didnt feel like I bowled a bad shot. Seen as last time i had front 11 i shot 299 with a 2 pin i said to myself before the shot, stay slow, dont push it wide. So I hit my mark, stayed slow, kept the revs up, AND LEFT A 2 PIN! ARGH!

Everyone in the league said to me that they have no idea why the ball just didnt turn as much, cause it looked a carbon copy of the previous shot. Any ideas what I might have done wrong so I know for next time? I thought i learned my lesson last time, obviously not!

good luck and high scoring
matt

I wouldnâ€™t try to throw slower, I would just go with it, if it is your normal tendency under pressure to throw harder. Move Â½ to one board right and let it rip.
