DEL WARREN: So, I just left one of the most dreaded splits in bowling, the four, six, seven, ten. Not a good shot no matter what time it falls in the game. So now, what do I need to do? I'm going to try to pick this up, and there's two ways to do it. There's really three ways to do it. One is to throw it really hard and try to bounce the pins around at the back and get one of the pins either the four, seven or the six, ten to bounce out and get the other two pins or you're going to slide either the six pin over or the four pin over to take out the other two pins. Well, the way I normally try to shoot this is I'm going to shoot the two pins in the right hand corner, which is the six, ten. Try to slide the six pin over into the four, seven, see what happens. Now, that's why you practice. That's why ever ball that you throw isn't a strike and we'll probably try to get eight and what I do, try to do a better job the next.
