Title: Shot 269 with Crunch Time
Post by: KenCanFightBear on August 23, 2004, 07:41:07 AM

Just wanted to announce that I shot a 269 for my first REAL practice game using my new Crunch Time.  The line I used was 10(at the arrows) out to 5.  Here's the box score:

1  2  3  4   5   6   7   8   9  10
X  X  X  0/  X   X   X   X   X  XX9
30 50 70 90 120 150 180 210 240 269

Since I suck, I guttered in the fourth frame and thought to myself, "Here we go again.."  I spared it up and then all of a sudden, pocketed 7 in a row until the last shot where I had a ringing 10-pin.  Why am I broadcasting an odd 269?  Because it's a good score and I haven't shot like that in a long time.

Aside from the score, the Crunch Time is an amazing ball.  With dry backends, that baby will hit a ton.  It doesn't over-react and was surprisingly controllable at the breakpoint.

Ah, I see you like doing things the hard way..  Don't worry, it happens to a lot of us, I have a few 270's that way.  Last one was 8 bagger, foul(struck) then spare, sheet...270.  That's when we tell other people we threw 13 strikes in one game...

Great game Ken!

Good shooting Ken. Better to throw that gutter ball during practice than when you face it in league.
