Have you guys seen a 291?
« on: May 05, 2005, 11:14:22 AM »
I was just curious if anyone has ever seen a 291-293 before.

Hasn't 292 only been done 12 or so times? Would be a real interesting thing to see, I can't even remember the last time i got a two count.

292 by picking the 7-10 off a full rack? i say not possible. i have seen a 273, and a couple 291's in nonsanctioned games.

i dont belive someone picked off the 7 10. the laws of physics would even dictate that the only way possble for that to happen would be a force hitting the head pin and then remaining there transfering its force through the rest of the rack and then spliting itself (the force) and taking out the 7 and the 10.

now there are many other ways this could happen but not by man and at least not by throwing a ball down the lane after throwing 11 strikes.

hey but that would just be f n HI-larious to see some one go front 11 and then only get 1 pin on the 12, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ......my abs hurt....ha ha ha ha ha ha

To all of you that don't believe the 7-10 can be picked out of full rack, once you see it, then you can talk.  I've seen it, as have many other people.  I'll never understand why everytime something improbable happens, people who weren't a witness have to insist it's impossible.

And to answer the question, I've never seen a 291-94.  Lowest score i've seen after the front 11 was a 295.  One guy left the greek church, the other left the bucket plus the 7 pin.

One thing I have learned when it comes to life, let alone bowling....do not discount the possibility of anything.

The lowest I have ever seen sadly was a 297. My coach did that in her tuesday night league about 2 months back. I've never seen a 7-10 hit from a full rack but I'm sure it would be a sight to witness.

Then I say you are wrong!!  I've seen my team mate in college do this when we where warming up and he shot at a 10-pin...pin came and hit the 7 pin from behind.  

Hell...I've picked the 7-10 out of the 4-6-7-10 before!

the laws of physics?
please step away from the keyboard so no one gets' hurt

good grief. man, I sure hope you are smarter than That. if not stay away from the butter knives.

if so please show me your calculation proving that the bowling ball only hits the head pin and that is impossible for a 10 pin to leave the pin deck and never return.


once again proof that dumb people breed way to much!

yes, this is insulting you in case you don't understand.

I did not see it happen, but our lane monitor at Nationals told us an interesting story yesterday.  She said someone in the Regular division chopped off the 6-9 three consecutive frames with a gutter on the other ball.  Had 6 after three frames!!  She saw it happen...If it was you, fess up!!

Please correct me if I'm wrong but for a long time, there wasn't a 292 registered with ABC until the late 80's or early 90's.  It was one of the most difficult ones to do...until resin came along.  I've taken off the 6-9 on a full rack personallly twice.  Gone between the 3-10 at least a doz times or so....best one I saw was 290, front 11 and a gutter, guy was playing 12 board..ooops!  I've also shot a few 270's...front 6-7, gutter-spare and sheet, not playing 12 board either...lol.

I've seen a 296 before.  Front 11 and then left the 2-4-8-10.  Ouch!

As for me, I've taken the 6-9 off a full rack twice.  I've also taken the 6 out of the 3-6-10.

291 is called the "big pull".
