Gobble Gobble

You got a turkey in 10-pin bowling.

How to unlock the Gobble Gobble achievement in Grand Theft Auto IV - Definitive Guide

An easier way of getting a Turkey is going to Memory Lanes. When you get there pick the farthest left lane. Hold the left stick over until Niko steps over two times. Then pull the right stick back and then back to center for about half a second to a full second, then push forward. Then don't touch anything else.

Took me about a million tries, but I finally got it! (Probably didn't help that I was a bit drunk when I tried for it...)

Hardest 10 GS I've ever earned. Thanks for the help.

Never mind. I figured it out and earned the achievement. You might want to add that speed is determined by how long the player holds the right thumbstick down. A short amount of time means a faster roll, and a longer amount of time means a slower roll. I found it useful to hold the thumbstick down, say "one thou," then push the thumbstick up.

I remember this wouldn't work for me at all. I would do it and always be at 2 strikes, then bam! The third isn't a strike. I actually ended up getting this achievement on Thanksgiving Day 2012 when I had a notion that it would be good luck to do so on that day. Now I am happy!

Thanks a lot for your "one thou," tactic :D It worked on the first try when before I always bowled too slow or too fast.

Completely useless. Getting a strike is entirely luck, and most of the time, you'll only knock over 9 pins.

Everything about this solution makes sense, except I can't seem to bowl with any speed. Most of my shots are right where they need to be. They're just moving so slow that I can't knock down all the pins. How do I bowl with greater speed?

The best way to do this step is as follows:
Take a small step to the left
Then move ls straight back and straight forward
The ball must move between the fourth and fifth lines
If you can move the ball directly between the 4th and 5th lines, you will definitely strike
(from left to right)
You see 9 lines on the floor
(from left to right)
The ball must move between the fourth and fifth lines

the easiest way to get this achievement is to go to the bowling lane right next to the left wall. when you choose your position move 2 steps to the left and press A. when you go to bowl the ball, very slowly pull the RS back and then push it forward again. your speed should be around 12 - 20 mph. just do this 3 times and you get the achievement.

Go to the lane furthest on the left.
Go to the left twice.
Pull the right stick back.
A second later put it forward making sure it's in a straight line.
Repeat 3 Times

Okay, so I was a little skeptical when I first read your guide (rather short and simple), and after a couple of games I weren’t successful. However after training a bit I finally managed to do it.
Simple, but effective.

Thanks man.

I envy all of you "got this on my first/second game"-guys. I played like 10 full games last nite and never was able to get this. Always left 1 or 2 pins on the right side. So damn frustrating :(

How to score a strike:

Step 1:Go to bowling and start a full or half game.
Step 2:Take the bowling alley furthest to the left.
Step 3:Move the left stick to the left until Niko takes 2 whole steps to the left.
Step 4:Pull the right stick back for 1 second and then push it forward.

This trophy seems simple enough but trust me this is probably one of the most difficult trophies in this game here's a simple way of doing it though, But trust me it won't be easy unless you have luck which in that case be thankful lol, And also i do not own this video.

You need to hit three strikes in a row (knock down all the pins with one ball throw). Take two steps to the left, throw the ball straight, and hope for luck, sooner or later you will get the achievement.

Quite a tricky achievement, as the game's physics let you down a bit when bowling. But everything is not as scary and complicated as it seems at first glance. After you start playing, you are given the opportunity to move the character to the right or left. You need to move to the left one full step, and not two as I read everywhere. And then we send the ball into the pins, without the need to frantically jerk the analogue, just do it calmly. When the ball rolls, you have a few seconds to correct its direction with the right analogue.
