Bowling is a game of scoring points by knocking down pins with balls.
Fundamentally, a player rolls a heavy bowling ball into a flat surface to knock
down arranged pins of nine or ten, depending on the game you play. There are
several forms of bowling; some are played indoors which usually uses a lane or a
long flat polished wood surface with gutters along the length of the lane.
Primary examples of these indoor types are the feather bowling, duckpin bowling,
candlepin bowling, ninepin skittles, five pin bowling and the most popular form
of bowling which is the Ten-pin.
Another popular bowling variant is the Five-pin bowling which is often played in
Canada. It is a recent modification of Ten-pin bowling but instead of two
attempts, Five-pin has three attempts, and each attempt can be thrown in quick
succession. The game employs smaller balls without fingerholes, making it
difficult to attain a perfect score since splits are more frequent.
