remember, one turn consists of two throws.
when you get a strike, that means that you knock down all of the pins in one throw, and one throw exactly. if you knock down all the pins on your first throw, you can't have another throw and your turn is over.
when you get a spare, that means you took your two throws and knocked down ALL of the pins.
for example, if you knock down four of the pins in your first throw and 6 pins on your next throw, you get a spare.
but if you get 0 pins on your first throw and 10 pins on your second throw, that is also a spare, not a strike.
it means you got either a strike or spare
There are 10 frames in bowling. If you get a strike or spare in the 10th frame you get additional shot(s) -- 1 for spare and 2 for strike.
In the last frame you get a chance of bowling 3 balls. You can get three strikes, a strike and a spare (a spare is two balls) or a spare and a strike.
No. Technically there are only ten frames in bowling. If you Spare in the tenth frame, you get a bonus shot called a fill shot. If you strike in the tenth frame, you get two bonus/fill shots.no
No... with a spare you will add 10 plus the next ball rolled to get your score for that frame. A strike you will add 10 plus the next 2 balls rolled to score that frame. The maximum frame score you can receive for a spare would be 20. If you rolled a strike for next ball after your spare. The maximum for a strike would be 30. If you rolled 2 strikes in your next 2 balls after you strike.
yes
The different between a strike and a spare is the number of shots used in knocking all 10 pins down. A strike is knocking all 10 pins down in one shot. A spare is knocking all 10 pins down in two shots.
