This is from 1987, the same telecast as Pete McCordic's perfect 300. Even though Bo missed by a couple of inches, pay attention. Your spare making may improve. He and Mike Durbin give us good tips in between matches.

He should of missed the 1,2,4, what a luck biatch, haha

not necessarily. What I would do is move right since I was taught to move in the direction of the error. Since the ball was right, move right. then find the 1-3 pocket. with the right angle, the head pin would bounce into the 2, then the 4. spare + I know where my setup position for strikes.

That's what's even funnier about it...that you know they took several takes, and this is the best they got. lol

Brian,
Don't you think they'd do several takes in case he misses it! lol!!!

Yup, beats working for a living. How many of us bowlers would love to be in his shoes. Give a video lesson here, enter a bowling tournament there, be on tv. He has my vote !

And he barely makes the first spare. Bo's tips were virtually worthless. lol

Thats right, he nearly chops the headpin straight through. Shouldn't the ball come into contact with all 3 pins...?
