#TEN PIN CHAMPIONSHIP BOWLING PRO GAMEHOUSE COLLECTION PROFESSIONAL#

People approach modern ten-pin bowling as either a demanding precision sport or as a simple recreational pastime. After the development of automated mechanical pinsetters, the sport enjoyed a 'golden age' in the mid twentieth century. Ten-pin bowling arose in the early 1800s as an alternative to nine-pin bowling, with truly standardized regulations not being agreed on until nearly the end of that century.

Especially when coupled with technological developments in ball design since the early 1990s, easier oil patterns, commonly called house shots or typical house patterns (THPs), enable many league bowlers to achieve scores rivaling those of professional bowlers who must bowl on more difficult patterns-a development that has caused substantial controversy.

The oil is applied in different patterns to add complexity and regulate challenge in the sport. Oil is applied to approximately the first two-thirds of the lane's length to allow a 'skid' area for the ball before it encounters friction and hooks. The lane's long and narrow shape limits straight-line ball paths to angles that are smaller than optimum angles for achieving strikes accordingly, bowlers impart side rotation to hook (curve) the ball into the pins to increase the likelihood of striking. The 41.5-inch-wide (105В cm), 60-foot-long (18В m) lane is bordered along its length by gutters ( channels) that collect errant balls.

The objective is to knock down all ten pins on the first roll of the ball (a strike), or failing that, on the second roll (a spare).ДЄn approximately 15 feet (5В m) long approach area used by the bowler to impart speed and apply rotation to the ball ends in a foul line. Ten-pin bowling is a type of bowling in which a bowler rolls a bowling ball down a wood or synthetic lane toward ten pins positioned evenly in four rows in an equilateral triangle at the far end of the lane. Ball contacts the 1, 3, 5, and 9 pins (sequentially tinted red) to achieve a strike.
