Hey I had a first in my bowling career and was wondering if anyone had the same experience. I was bowling a tournament in San Antonio and I had advanced from the top 32 to the top 8. I had two spots up on the board still. My opponents are on the same lane bowling against me. I throw my first ball and leave the 4-7-10 split. AND I SPARED IT. The the most amazing thing happened. I got up in the 2nd frame and left the 6-7-10 split. AND YES I SPARED IT ALSO. One of my opponents even gave me $20 for picking it up because he bet that I couldn't do it. I have never imagined that I could ever do this much less ever pick them up. So if you have ever had something like this happen I would love to hear about it. Oh I ended up shooting a 258 that game and beat one of my two opponents. I finished 2nd and 6th in the tournament.

Well, I did something like that in PBAex league because of how many splits I end up with.
First frame I got left 4-7-3-6-9-10 and picked it up, second frame I left the 6-7-10 and picked it up, then the third frame I left the 4-10 and picked it up.
I get LOTS of splits bowling on PBA shots, I'm still getting used to sport bowling, first time through.
Good job on finishing high in that tournament

Mine was in league. In the 2nd frame I left the 4-6-10, slid the 6 over and made the split. In the 9th I left the 4-6-7 and kicked the 4 out to cover the 6. That made having a bad night more enjoyable.

That was annoying.
