Candle-pin bowling is played the same way as 10 pin bowling. But the only difference is that you play with candle-pins
and smaller bowling balls that fit right into you hand. The candle-pins are aproximently 15cm height and aproximently 2cm
width. They also weigh aproximently 2 pounds 8 ounces. The bowling balls width and height is aproximently 4 cm, they
weigh 2 pounds 7 ounces, usally no more then that. The bowling lanes are made of wood or a synthetic imitation. The length
of the the lanes are 60 feet, that is measured from the foul line to the head pin (1 pin/ first one that is out fearther)
The lanes are aproximently 41 or 42 inches in width. The object of the game is to knock over as many pins as possible. If
you knock over all the pins with one ball, then its classified as a strike. If you knock over all the pins with two balls
then its classified as a spare. But if you knock over all the pins with three balls then its calssified as a 10.
You have 10 boxed to try and get as many pins as possible knocked over and added onto you score.
