    Default Proud of this pick UP!!!

    I am not sure I have had this ever before in my short history of bowling, but Picked it UP!! Not easy with the 2, 8, sleeper!
    It was the 2,8, 7, 10!!! wish I had it on film, but it made my night, and got a huge standing ovation!!! LOL

    I wonder what the odds are on this shot!!

    This happened on our Sunday 6pm league... Had a decent night to go with it, bowling, 661
    should have been, could have been, you know the (LOOK BACK TALK TO ONE"S SELF LOL) a 700 plus!

    But most importantly we, my wife and me had a great time!!! God, how did I have happiness before bowling!!???

    Live to Bowl, and Bowl to LIVE!!!

    How did you manage to pick it up? Did the 2 pin kick off the wall?

    ICEMAN, you should have someone record you 24/7 so well get to see shots like this!

    call it, "THE LIFE OF ICEMAN"

    It was a CLEAN pick UP!!!!!!!!! I coulden't believe it!!! I was in reality trying for the 2,8, which is a sleeper combo,, and thought go with my hook ball, get the 2,8 and hook into the seven pin! Not easy but very do-able. I hit JUST off center of the 2 pin by a fraction of an inch to get the sleeper and then bounce of the sleeper to 10 pin,,, so the 2 took out the 8, and then deflected right and got the fricken 10 pin!! The ball carried enough to get the 7!

    I dream of shots like that, but never thought I had a snow balls chance in hell of getting it..... Iceman......

    thanks for all the congrats!!!!!!!

    Congrats on the great pickup. Really boosts your game / series when you can make a shot like this. Good work Iceman.

    I like the idea of an Iceman reality show.

    That old (or new) saying is... if it's not on YouTube, it didn't really happen.
