Great job Ryan. Good to see one of the long time posters getting their first 700...now it's time to get the 300 and much higher 700's, eh?

Ryan,

You will notice one thing. Once you have gotten your first they usually come much more often. Remember shooting for that first 600? Did they not just come much more easy after the first one?!

You know the funny thing about the whole night was I wasnt nervous at all. After the first 2 games, I had 494 on the board and said to myself.."I am going to shoot 700 tonight!!"

So, I started the last game with the front 6 and then started telling myself, I want the 300 too!! I then left a 3-6-10 and dumped the ball completely then went 9/, X, S7- to go 216. I didnt get nervous but actually found that I was real confident in what I wanted to do and nothing was going to stop me.
