Normal lane courtesy is 1 lane.
Gutter depths can vary, but must be at least 1 7/8" below the lane surface.
a bowling lane is 41-42 inches wide from gutter to gutter and 60 feet long from the foal line to the first pin.
In tenpin bowling, the maximum number of balls possibly thrown through the 9th frame is 18. 21 is the maximum for frames 1 through 10.
ya... just all be in the same lane, if you rented 2 lanes then have three in 1 lane and two in the 2nd lane!!
Certain WEIGHTS of bowling balls float. Bowling balls have a volume of 6250 cm3. An equal amount of water would weigh 6.25 kilograms. A bowling ball that weighs less than 6.25 kilograms--8-pound, 10-pound and 12-pound balls--will float. 14-pound and 16-pound balls, having a density higher than 6.25 kilograms, will not float.
yes, but if you layout the ball the same on all bowling balls, the reaction will be different. So for example, if you has a Columbia 300 Scout and a Lane #1 Black Cherry Bomb with the same drill layout, one would tend to hook more than the other depending on how you drill it. Hope this helped. :)
There are many different types of bowling balls to be used in bowling. For a beginner or a child the ball should be drilled to fit their hand at a local pro shop and if its a child the proper weight should be roughly 1/10 of their body weight. For a more advanced bowler the same applies that it should be drilled to their hand by the local pro shop, and any other needs can be met by different types of bowling balls (hook more or less).
For the first nine frames, a bowler is allowed up to two shots. On frame 10, if the bowler makes a strike on the first ball, or a spare with the second, three balls are thrown.
In Germany there are two types of bowling as a sport.1. The German version of bowling is called Kegeln(translates as ninepins, which also describes the game: it uses nine pins instead of ten). The balls used for Kegeln are smaller than American bowling balls and they have no holes for the fingers.2. Bowling as it is known the USA is also very common in Germany.So, you either say Kegeln, which describes the German type, or you just say Bowling, then everyone knows that you mean the US-version.
Frames 1-9 you throw 9 balls (strikes) Frame 10 you throw at least 2 not getting a spare. You total amount is 11.
This area is called the approach. It is 15 feel from the foul line back with an allowance of 1/4 inch. This is where the bowler starts their "approach" to release the bowling ball.
