∙ 14y agoA bowling lane is 60 feet long from the foul line to the headpin? (Which is coincidentally the same distance of the pitcher's mound to home plate in baseball) Bowling lanes are 43 inches wide and were traditionally made of hard rock maple (the first 15 feet) followed by pine, with maple again in the pin area.
