Practice bowling this Friday evening with the wife turned out to be a cosmic bowling session too. We practiced. The kids in the lane adjcent to us left an incomplete 5-10 split. the lanes shut down an I could not get the pin remain out of my mind. I was dying to try to convert it the entire time there. I finally said enough is enough!! If I threw my ball down a dead lane, it would not return, so I looked among the house balls on the return and found one with big holes. I lined up a straight shot and played it the the 5-pin just right and cleared the deck. My wife could not believe her eyes. Nor could I. I thought i selected a line that would pick up the 5 pin, but at the right angle to take out the ten?
To further add to my lucky/skillfull bowling, we bowled again Sunday afternoon. I left the 6-7-10 and was able to not only pluck out the 10-pin, but I also nudged the 6-pin accross the pin deck into the 7-pin just right. I usually have trouble with 10-pin accuracy. Not today.
