Had a buddy go 293 picking the 6-9-10 off. Guess it is just nerves.

For me everytime I have missed the twelfth it was always a grab/pull right so hard to understand. Picking the ten off a full rack is hard to do. Ever try? I think it is way harder than throwing a strike.

I saw someone go front 11 and then throw it in the ditch for 290

I'll believe 290 the hard was is more unintentional than 291.  Even a really, really bad shot is gonna recover for 3-5 pins.  Might hit the 3-6 pocket, or even right through the 6 pin, but it's hard to throw a hookin' ball to just take out the 10.  Even just taking out the 7 for a righty is hard to do unintentionally.

i know for a fact that it wasnt intentional though. he has never shot a 300 game before. apparently it went out to like the 1/32nd board and somehow stayed on the lane lol
