Bowling

First Answer:
Yes it does.

Second Answer:
Not so much. The most important thing is velocity, tracking, rotation, accuracy, and hitting the sweet spot or "pocket" of the pins. You will get more pin action from 16 pound ball than a 6 pound ball thrown with the same velocity though, so in broader general terms yes, but not from just a difference in a few pounds alone.

They are sold, though rare. Most pro shop professionals will tell you this is because there really isn't a demand for them. Often times you can find a seven pount house ball for use in an alley, but it is much harder to purchase one. This is because for newbies, they usually start them out in a six pounder. By the time they need a new ball or are ready to move up, they can usually handle an eight or nine pounder. This is because children grow so quickly and conditioning them with a six pounder will increase their strenght to throw a heavier ball.

To start a Wii Bowling League, first gather a group of interested players and decide on a suitable location, such as a community center or a home with enough space. Set a regular schedule for games, whether weekly or bi-weekly, and establish rules for scoring and gameplay. Promote your league through local community boards or social media to attract more participants, and consider creating a simple registration process to keep track of players. Finally, plan a fun kickoff event to build excitement and encourage camaraderie among participants.

Typically a lane has 21 pins in rotation. This is to ensure that there is always 10 pins in the rack awaiting to be set into position on the lane for the next bowler/shot.

It's hard to say. First things first: you don't just go to a store and buy 20 bowling lanes. These things are negotiated out. Second, no one opens a center that just has bowling. You need a restaurant, a bar, a game room, sometimes a miniature golf course...whatever it's going to take to get lots of people through the doors of your center, you install. Brunswick claims that by the time you pay for everything associated with opening a bowling center, you could have as much as $165,000 per lane invested in your center. So...a 20-lane center is going to run you well over $3 million.

Gravity does not affect total mass, no matter where in the universe the bowling ball travels. Therefore, a 7 kilogram bowling ball will always be 7 kilograms.

10 frames in a bowling game, 10th frame can have up to 2 extra balls. For example 3 strikes in the 10th frame. 12 strikes in a game = 300 = perfect game.

Bowling pins weight between 3 pounds 6 ounces and 3 pounds 10 ounces.

no! windex will pull the natural oil out of the ball eventually causing the surface to peel off. the only thing u need to use to clean a ball is powerwash and a microfiber towl from any proshop.

Vince Lombardi of the Green Bay Packers said "perfect practice makes perfect."

Practice, practice, practice...

It's easy to throw a 256 in practice. You have to be able to bring that skill set to live compitition.

Yes I have bowled several, though not at the same time.

When time is up and the score is exactly the same.

First Answer:
It depends what bowling you are doing there is ten pin bowling which would have 10 pins and there is also five pin bowling which obviously has 5.

Second Answer:
To give further detail to the above answer, in tenpin bowling there are 120 possible pins to be knocked down per game (stike = 10 pins, 12 possible strikes per game = 120 pins, total score for that game is 300).

First off, you get the pride and satisfaction of having rolled a perfect game, something that fewer than one in a thousand league bowlers have ever done.

If you do so in a sanctioned league or tournament, you will also earn a ring or other commemorative item from the USBC (United States Bowling Congress) or the equivalent sports body in your nation. Should you be so lucky as to have multiple 300s, special commemorative rings or trophies are available.

In certain tournaments, such as the PBA tour, bowling a 300 in the finals (and sometimes the semifinals) may entitle you to a cash or merchandise bonus.

Unfortunately there is no way to know this number precisly. USBC has a record of all sanctioned 300's in America, however this do not include 300's bowled for fun or practice or in unsanctioned leagues and tournaments, or before the establishment of USBC. So theres no definite answer.

total pinfall of three games of bowling (max: 900)

9 pin no tap, means if you throw your first ball down the lane and take out only 9, then it is a strike and the lane resets to 10 pins and you move on to the next frame. Ninepin bowling and 9 pin no tap are not the same thing. Ninepin bowling is a type of "bowling." No tap is a game type played within "Tenpin" (traditional US alley bowling).

A Strike is worth ten pins plus the total of the next two balls thrown. If you throw three strikes in a row, the first strike is worth 30 pins. If you throw a strike, then a spare. The strike is worth 20 pins total.

A position round in bowling helps give an opportunity for lower placed teams to catch up to higher placed teams.

As an example with a league that gives 4 points a week:

1st place - 48 points

2nd place - 47 points

3rd place - 46 points

4th place - 45 points.

Potentially, if 1st place won 1 point out of 3 during position round, it would allow 2nd place to take over 1st. If 3rd place won all 4 from the 4th place team, they could also overtake the first place team and be 2nd after position round.

100 is the worst televised bowling score ever recorded.

Yes. The weight of a ball is one of the most important factors to consider when buying/using a ball. If your ball is too heavy you won't have the speed you need to get the ball to the other end with enough momentum left over to crash through the pins, and also your swing is more likely to go all over the place.

Similarly, if your ball is too light, you will have too much speed and your ball will just bounce off the pins (especially if it's plastic) and not hit the full set of pins. Also, when your ball is too light you tend to swig your arm faster and become more reckless in terms of accuracy.

It's called the foul line. If you step on or over it you'll get a big, fat F for foul and you'll only have one shot to get down the pins.
