Started bowling again about 3 weeks ago. For the last 2 weeks, I seem to have an issue with the 6 pin wanting to lay in the gutter instead of taking out the 10. I had set a goal for a 200 game by today, but with the 10 pin issue I have only shot a 178 for a high game.

Which direction am I missing the1-3 pocket? It appears that the ball is dead on target, but the 10 just does not seem to want to go. Any suggestions?

Your coming in a little light, the ball is driving the three pin straight back and just clipping the 6 pin. Several things you can try, move back on the approach alittle or to the right some. Also you could slow the ball speed a little or move your mark in some.

What you want is to come a little bit heavier into the pocket, so the 3 drives into the 6 pin to carry the 10.

So basically too much 3 and not enough 1.
