Ten Pin left

[Keithalw]

What causes the ten pin to stay up when you throw what looks like to be a great ball and hits the pocket? Just curious if its like an adjustment thing or just S*!t happens or what

Wow, this is the third straight thread I read on this...Depends. Is it frame after frame? The entry angle is off but why depends on what happened for the ten pin to stand. Moving half a step closer on the approach helps most bowlers while some others prefer to change lines.

Here's a diagram about leaving ten pins and 3 more threads talking about the ten pin.



"You are looking at the ball hitting the pocket. The ball could have struck the head pin slightly heavy (diagram A) or it could have struck the head pin slightly light (diagram B). Of course there’s always the question of the ball’s angle of entry to consider."

Billf it was literally frame after frame the other night. Then my teammate was throwing his ball and either leaving the seven or ten up almost every frame...

Based on the diagram above, do you recall if it was ringing or flat? depending on this you should either play a different line or simply move left a board or so

Not trying to hijack the thread, but what about pocket 7-10s? I threw two of those in the same game during league on Sunday night.

The cause and fix are basically the same as the ten pin. It's a light pocket hit with the ball just behind the headpin.

In all my time bowling, I don't think I've ever seen the pins travel as shown in diagram B.
