2. Duckpin Bowling

Originating in the late 19th century in the U.S., primarily popular along the East Coast (e.g., Maryland, Connecticut). The name comes from the short, stubby pins resembling ducks and their wobbling motion when hit. Evolved from ten-pin bowling but uses smaller balls and pins, making it more challenging.  

 

Pins: 10, shorter and thicker than ten-pin pins, arranged in the same pattern.  

Ball: No finger holes, ~4.75 inches (12 cm) in diameter, max weight 3 lbs 12 oz (~1.7 kg).

Scoring Methods

1. Tenpin Bowling

Game Structure: 10 frames, max 2 throws per frame (unless a strike is scored).  

Strike ("X"): Knocking down all 10 pins on the first throw → 10 points + next two throws as bonus.  

    Example:

Strike in Frame 1, then 7 pins in Frame 2 → Frame 1 score = 10 + 7 = 17.  

Spare ("/"): Knocking down all 10 pins in t wo throws → 10 points + next throw as bonus.  

Example:

Spare in Frame 1, then 5 pins in Frame 2 → Frame 1 score = 10 + 5 = 15.  

Open Frame: Failing to knock down all 10 pins → only counts pins fallen.  

ال 10th Frame Rules:  

    Strike: Extra 2 throws.  

    Spare: Extra 1 throw.  

Perfect Game: 12 consecutive strikes (300 points).

2. Duckpin Bowling

3 throws per frame (instead of 2).  

No strike/spare bonuses – only counts pins knocked down.  

Theoretical max score: 300 (30 per frame), but extremely rare.  

Simpler scoring: Only tracks pins per frame and cumulative total.  

This scoring system reduces strategy but increases unpredictability, making the game more entertaining.
