Yes it was in a four game league and this his answer to someones question.
Well to be honest, Halfway through game three, I kinda felt like I had the ball reaction, and the carry to post a big number. I asked Don (the owner of the center, who bowls our league also) what the house record was (878) that set my goal on making the best shots I could to get a house record, something that I have never accomplished before. That became my goal. I would say the second shot of the tenth was the hardest, just because that is the foundation for shooting the record. The fill ball, I knew 9 would tie, 10 broke it, and after I struck, I deffinatly let loose!!! Hands pump, and some yelling, I reached my goal!!
After getting through that tenth frame, I kind of relaxed a bit, as I was prepared for a single pin, or a really bad shot, something, I figured, because no way could I keep striking. The pins just kept falling. Every time the lanes changed a bit, I got a reader shot to tell me to make an adjustment. The first game, the seven pin started to go late, so I squared up a bit. As the backends tightened up towards the end of the third game, I adjusted my release to get the ball to kick a little more. Then in the last game, as the fronts started to hook a little (a few shots didn't push out as far, but held pocket), I went with a little more speed to hold pocket. The fill ball of the last game took a awhile, I balked twice, as I couldn't get my ball into the swing at the right time to feel fluid. After I left it go, I just watched and prayed that the shot would carry just like the rest of them did.
