Best Answer

Each game of Bowling is made up of 10 frames, or sections. Each frame entitles the bowler up to two attempts to knock down all 10 pins. If the bowler knocks down all 10 in the first attempt, that is called a "strike" and his/her turn is over. If the bowler knocks down all the pins on their second attempt, the score is a spare and the frame is over. If the bowler scores a strike in the tenth frame, they get two "fill shots" or bonus balls. If the bowler scores a spare in the tenth frame, they get one fill shot.
