    Default Best Spare!

    Okay guys. It's been a long time since I'm here chatting but here I am.
    Just want to ask what's the best spared that you made. Regardless whether is it sanctioned or not.
    As long as your not lying, it's fine. (if you lie... so be it... haha)


    So... here's mine...

    6-7-10

    did it during open bowling, I took my 10 pin shooting line, moved my feet out 2 boards and when i threw the nexxus it hugged the gutter right in and nailed it.

    I guess people were watching because i heard the collective "woah" behind me LOL

    i guess a 6/10 - 7 ive done it a few times i always seem to pick up the dumb stuff and miss the easy ones like a 4/7 ( i really am better hitting tens then i am 7's right handed) but i watch someone hit the 7/10 never seen a ball go down the lane so fast lol he hit the inside towards the back of the ten and bounced the ten pin to the 7 it was crazy he said best way to pick it up is to pray to god u get it =D

    Made the 7-10 once years ago. Just threw my spare ball as hard as humanly possible at the 10 pin and it bounced off the back and got the 7.

    Nearly made it again two weeks ago. Ten pin bounced back and hit where the 8 pin would have been. SO DAMN CLOSE to a sanctioned one.

    the best spare i ever got was when i had the 10 pin left and i angled the balled to hit it and missed but the ball bounced out of the gutter and clocked it.

    Done this, but technically not a spare, ball is dead as soon as it goes in the gutter

    I picked up the 3-4-7-10.

    I really don't know how I left it.

    I've also picked up the 2-4-8-10 about five-six times.

    I hit an honest 7-10 many many years ago (late 80's, when I was 19). I threw a spare ball hard at the 7, it went left and just tapped it. It skidded, fell over, and the base came around and just barely toppled the 10.

    Never hit that spare since, not even close.

    The 4-7-9-10, but only because I missed right of where I was aiming and bounced the 4 off the side board across the lane into the 9 which fell over into the 10.
