Take a look at my VE. CRAZY!!
« on: December 30, 2010, 04:15:53 AM »

 

Look at this.  Last night I'm shooting a 10 pin (left a pocket 7-10 and didn't feel like getting my spare ball).  Ball slides off just before the ten and i see a white flash go across the pit.  I turned to the bolwer next to me and was like,  "I think my ball just split in half."  The pictures are the pieces I got back.  LOL what a night!  Still shot 668 with my VG. 


Balls in the bag and order they come out:
#1- Virtual Energy
#2- Invasion
#3- Virtual Gravity
#4- Gravity Shift
#5- Big Hit (spare and really dry)
#6- Teal Rhino Pro (oldie but a goodie)

Well, I still have the old interface here, so I can't see your pics... But that sounds funny.  I picked up my Attitude Shift to throw practice on & as I walked to the approach noticed a crack from the balance hole all the way around to my middle finger.  Luckily saw it before I threw it.

Last week I picked up the 9 pin for a spare on lane 24 & my VG came back returned up the lane 23 gutter & bounced up onto the approach.... We had about 5-6 lanes of people either busting a gut or wide eyed in amazement... I've never seen that before...  Now I've thrown at a 10 pin cross lane & miss so bad that it went into the gutter so hard it bounced over to the next lane on a different pair & strike..... It was unbelievable.... The guy on the approach was laughing so hard he couldn't bowl for 5 - 10 minutes...

Can everyone else see the pics?  This is the first time I've posted pics and I wasn't sure how to do it.  Let me know if no one can see them and I'll see what else I can do.

I can't view a picture. All I can see is where the picture should be and a box with a red x in it.

Ditto here.... But I don't even get the red x.  Just the spaces where a pic should be.  The BR admin guy behind the curtain told me it should be about 24 more hours before the system gets everyone on board w/the new interface.

I know a guy last season who had that happen to his Hy-Road.   Drilled it on Thursday, brought it to league on Friday night and I want to say maybe 5 or 6 frames in used it to shoot a 10 pin and the same thing happened.  Caught the gutter just right and bounced up and out of the gutter, hit the bottom deck of the A-2 and then crashed back down.  Ended up in 2 pieces as well.

I didn't know they could split in half like that. I've had quite a few crack of course.
