TIP OF THE WEEK: Aim your feet at spares-especially the corner pins. Most people move over for the 10 pin but line up straight as if they were going down the left side of the lane. When you more over and if you ever have a swing, turn your body and feet toward the pin and walk slightly toward it. You will find that with a little practice and a few adjustments this will increase your chances in converting the spare. Do the opposite for the 7 pin by moving to the right. A very good example is the 3-6-9 spare shooting system.
