finally got the 3-6-9 method of spare shooting to work for me in my last game of the night during practice. almost had an clean game but for the 7th frame left a the 2,4,5,8 pins. normally it shakes me up when I miss a spare that I make 85% of the time. but next two frames strikes, then a spare and strike to finish up the 10th frames. just hoping I can keep it going.
