    Talk about frustrating...Sunday I left a 2-5-8....rolled my second ball and clipped the 5 straight to the left leaving the 2 and 8. THATs how close it's been...close enough to almost make the pin almost sway...but not enough to knock em over.

    He doesn't say you should use a area as a target, just that if you missed your "board" target. You still had a margin of error to cover the spare.
    I don't disagree with the article - great article actually (it's in my bowling book even). The comment originally by Aslan was "that he had to shoot "at a smaller target" when shooting spares. I disagree that it is neither smaller or larger, but the same size...a board/same size as strike target.

    Granted...I can close my eyes and hit at least one pin with a full rack...so target is irrelevant. It's only relevant if you're comparing picking up a spare to bowling a strike...which I was not.

    All about perspective and yeah, sometimes that messes with my head as well.
