In the 2nd game of today’s practice session (152-204-187=543), I had a split and missed 2 other spares and was only on a 164 pace through 6 frames, but ended the game with 6 strikes in a row for a 204 when I found the correct line to play on the lane, setting up between the 12 and 13 boards. I also had a turkey in the 3rd through 5th frames of the 3rd game, but that was the extent of the run, getting mostly spares the rest of the way for a 187. Also in that game, I just missed converting the 3-7 split when the 3 pin wrapped around the 7 pin off of the side wall. The 543 matches my best series so far, and comes on a day when I might’ve had less sleep than usual because of the celebration of the Boston Red Sox’ World Series win the night before.
