Club bowling pin shoot today, and like Maxwell Smart, I missed by that much. In 10 rounds I lost only one table to a fellow who finished in a 4-way tie for 4th, and wound up third overall.
All in all, not bad. Our oldest competitor was 84, and she still managed to win 2 tables.
One of the better competitors, using a Springfield XD, had his gun self-disassemble when the barrel lug fractured. No injury, but this is the second barrel lug failure on this gun in about a month, and it's still under warranty. He can get a new barrel, but was mad enough to seriously consider throwing the remains of the frame at the remaining pins.
We are nothing if not accommodating. When his gun broke, Fred (not his name) went off to shoot his AR on the rifle range, so we opened his slot up to anyone who wanted to volunteer to be the "Fake Fred". His stand-ins did well enough to finish him in the upper ranks, albeit with an asterisk next to his name.
