Sunday night i shot 703 during league. 224,278 and 201.
My second game i had the front 9. On my 10th frame i walked to the approach and felt fine as i picked up my ball out of the corner of my eye i saw people standing there watching. Which did make me nervous. I tried to relax my self and felt good. So i went. I put the ball out on the line i had been playing and the ball came in weak. I left the 5 and 8. I picked up the spare and struck on my last ball. I was so upset but i was happy at the same time that i did that good in league play. It was my highest game so far during league. I was using my Roto Grip Berserk. Planning on buying another and getting the same layout. Figured id share.

Congratulations! I would like to say 700s get easier but I would be lying. They're great when they come but they don't come nearly enough.

Congratulations ! The first one is always the hardest one to get. Next time you'll be more relaxed when you throw 9 in a row. Tough to get used to blocking out everything around you, but experience always helps. Just try to stay focused and ignore everything else.

Last night during league i shot my second 700 series in league!!!! First game was 231, second 236, and my last was 299. I wasnt really nervous. I could feel my heart beating but i know i was excited to have made it that far again in a week. Last ball looked great same as the balls before and had more pin action than the others. But i think I had to much pin action!!!! I left the Two pin of all pins. I only had two open frames one on my first game and one on the second.

Congrats wdc1987 on getting your second 700 series and
on having some great games also. It seems you had a really
fantastic night especially with that 299 game.

Congrats on the series and the 299 game. It feels good when you come off of a series like that, kinda boosts that confidence level. Now that you know you can do it the trick is to keep it going. Same attitude, same stroke. Good luck.

Congratulations on your first 7!! I remember when I got mine, I was so excited. And now..a few months later, I've lost count on how many I have..>.< My teammate shot five 7's in a row about a month ago..I was trying to catch him last week with back-to-back 7's, but couldn't keep it going. I know I need to focus and shoot at least 7 tonight if I want to beat the guy I'm facing in league man-to-man.

Well Done wdc1987!

I'm still waiting for my first. My high series in league play is a 689 earlier this season.
Cursed the 10 pin in the 5th frame of the 2nd game. That's the one that got away.

I got my first 700 a couple weeks before op posted. also a 703! But much different scores. 225, 233 and 245. I've not shot one since. a couple 670's. Its hard to stay consistent over 3 games. I got lucky that night and never had to move.
