Bowling Pin Failure
« on: August 13, 2013, 09:10:09 AM »
This is me shooting at a bowling pin match Sunday. Of course my worse showing is the one I had filmed.

Timing starts at the command "Fire" and ends when the last pin hits the ground (not the table). Each event is shot 3 times. This was my first relay. I did better in the next two but not enough to make up for taking a max time in this one. I came in 6th out of 10 shooters in this event.





Its also my first attempt at a youtube posting.

Shooting bowling pins is like golfing.  You want the ball to go in the cup, but sometimes it just refuses to go.  And you want the bowling pin to fall off the table, but sometimes it just won't comply. 

Frustrating.  >:D

I just think that one Pin didn't like him much.   ;D

I think we need to set up an NEFOA pin match.

Bring some pins to the NFOA meeting on Aug 24th.  :)
