ABSTRACT:
A method of playing a bowling game in which players are allowed a preselected number of balls to knock down all pins in each of a plurality of frames. A sequence of a plurality of differing pin setups of a constant number of pins is selected for each frame, up to a maximum of nine pins. Each player is required to deliver at least one ball in each of the frames. The number of pins knocked down by each player in each frame is counted, with strikes recorded for all pins knocked down by a first ball and spares recorded for all pins knocked down by a second ball. The number of pins knocked down by the respective player on the next two balls is added if a strike was recorded in the previous frame. The number of pins knocked down by the respective player on the next one ball is added if a spare was recorded in the previous frame. This determines the score for each player for each frame, which is recorded. Each player's frame scores are added to determine the player's total score for the game, and a comparison of the player's game scores determines the winner of the game.
