FIGJAM-sorta
« on: February 29, 2008, 07:40:27 AM »
I didn't have any major scores last night, in fact I didn't shoot all that well.  I did stick around and through a couple practice games while messing around with tape.  I was shooting at a 7 pin and brought it out of the pit, in front of the rake arm and down the right gutter a good 30 ft, and I didn't even think I threw it that hard-maybe 18-19mph.

Now, a while ago, my brother somehow got his spare ball (I don't remember if it was his Maxim, or a previous ball) to come back out of the pit, over the rake arm and all the way back across the foul line.

Now I have brought both the 7 and 10 out of the pit where it probably would have taken out the other corner before (but never when it was actually there =/) and brought pins in front of the rake arms before, but nothing remotely this far down the lane.

I saw a guy here do that a few weeks ago.  The pin stayed on the lane and with the oil and almost complete lack of friction, it slid all the way to the arrows.
