Festival of 299s
« on: October 02, 2005, 05:15:32 AM »
I've thrown 2 299s in the last week (Wednesday and Friday) on the same pair of lanes.  One series was a 694, the other a 782.  Had a 287 the week prior.  I'd never had 9 in a row without actually throwing a 300, now I've missed three times. Has anyone else ever had a bunch of these near-misses in a row?  Is it just something that happens?  Seems just uncanny to me.

there are a lot of people out there, I bowl with a guy that has had 11 289 game well into his 50's he not much of a closer.  But he did once about 6 months ago but it seem like everyone did in the center he did it in, I think they had 12 300 in a 3 week span I think the center was blocking the lanes.  but then you still have to have 12 around the pocket with a little luck.  don't give up and if you do check my web site out.

Usually I just wait for the breaks to happen from there. You know that you are striking, at that point just keep making good shots and good things will happen.
