This Bowling Game Is IMPOSSIBLE!! 

I used to watch you guys all of the time I didn't know you watched bowling too

Hello there awesome you watch bowling too pretty cool

There’s no way you also bowl Pat!

Hi Pat :)

Never thought I’d see you again happy to see an old favorite

I think most people know a smaller ball makes it harder to hit pins

That is the one game I don't get aggravated with. Love it when you hit the headpin and it's the only one you get.

@@kevinbadburn03 Haven't had that happen, but I did get the 1, 2 once.

sus

Canada also has 5 pin bowling. Which uses similar size ball (possibly the same, never candlepin bowled before). I don't know it that well, but I think you get 3 shots in it as well. Counts as Strike then spare then pin count. Pin values are 5 for middle, 3 for next closest and 2 for corners for 15 total pin count per frame.

Yea…1 haha

Pretty dang funny though.

Yeah good job packy I bet its hard cuz it looks hard

@@TheHouseBowling That lawn game with the square pins and then you throw the round throwing stick each side trying to knock over the pins Kubb. That is one of the hardest games I have ever played. Due to Eu Clare dubbed the capital of Kubb in North America in 2011 not to far from some of my relatives, it is not a surprise they showed us the game in 2014. That is one of the hardest games for bowling and ot make it harder the stick must be thrown under hand with the stick going end over end at least at first until the ground interferes. One of the toughest bowling like games I have ever played.

I knew Eric had to be commenting on this video... one of the OG candlepin channels!!!

How could I not!? Gonna try to get some candlepin in while I'm up there this week! Packed my shoes!

Is 5 pin only a canadian thing? That's crazy

Yes, 5-pin bowling is only in Canada and nowhere else in the world

Yes! Canadian 5 pin looks crazy difficult too. Team Packy/Dad vs Team Brad and Kyle!

I'm 34 and from Minnesota. 10-pin is the only bowling I've ever known, but the last month or so I've seen a lot of candlepin videos from the 80s and 90s, and now I want to try it really bad!

@@Cory_Springer i think you would but don't expect the higher scores like you get in tenpin. in candlepin the scores are less by about 100 pins, like the pros in our type of bowling have averages between 118-130. if you're ever out this way in new england give it a try.

I’ve good at 10 pin . Pretty good at duckpin . But i would love to try out candle pin .

It’s soooo tough!

It is,and it isn't. It is in that anyone from 2 to 102 can roll a 2.6 pound ball at the pins. But as a professional candlepin bowler, it can be very frustrating. Look at the 4.59 mark. Plucking a 2 or 3 pin without taking anything else is common. Or shooting the dead wood can be challenging to. For instance say you are shooting at the 8 pin and a piece of dead wood is in front at an angle, or whatever. That shot isn't going. But in cases like splits like the dreaded 7-10. If there's wood,it might go.

Oh hey look it’s somebody I know! :D ☺️

Soon

@@TheHouseBowling don’t bro, there’s thousands of videos that like already 👎🏾

What about three handed

@@Ryanthebowler300 you need to have a mututation to do that.

Cant be going out there hurting myself lol

No video but I believe Walter Ray JR. Bowled candlepin on a regular basis when vacationing on Cape Cod. Or he used to. And Belmonti tried his two hand technique, but the ball went left,or right a few lanes.

@@erikthorstensen5185 Walter would probably be quite good at it with his much straighter delivery than most PBA pros, even the pros from his era.

Duckpins run ~20 pins higher per-game average than candlepin. The throwing mechanics are very similar, and good bowlers in one code tend to be good in the other.

Once I actually plucked the quarter Worcester left, then the quarter right, then plucked the 8 pin for a 3 box. Damn near threw my stuff into the parking lot!

It was an insane shot!

A challenge but an enjoyable one I bet when it goes well!!

151 is insane because candlepin is impossible!!!

@@TheHouseBowling it was just one of those days where everything went right and fell down!

duckpin is harder candle pin you leave deadwood on lane duckpin you dont i love bowling duckpin

Duckpin is fun. As a candlepin bowler, the slightly larger ball used in duckpins is difficult, but when I’ve bowled duckpins, it appears that they either allow candlepin balls, or have a range of diameters they allow. Anyway, I don’t like to say that any of these games are “harder” or “easier.” To be a good tenpin bowler, you have to have a consistent strike ball, and pick up every spare that you can. In candlepins, you basically need to aim for the head pin, and hope for the best, and pick up spares when you can. Duckpins certainly requires more strikes than candlepins, and so you have to be on the head pin big time. They are all great games. I understand how the lower scoring can be frustrating to the tenpin bowler though. I don’t think there has ever been a really good candlepin bowler with a hook. There used to be some who had a slow ball with a little bit of backup on it (left to right for a righty), but no righty with a right to left hook has ever been particularly successful. You just can’t control it with the size of the ball, and the lack of oil on the lane.

candle pin tho you dont clear dead wood duckpin you do duckpin much harder

@@johnm112 I’ve bowled ducks for the past 20 years and was practically raised in a duckpin home because both my mom and dad bowled ducks their entire lives. I can say for a fact candlepin is much more difficult than duckpins. Even though you get to keep deadwood on the lane, the size of the ball and lane conditions are exponentially more difficult to account for than duckpins.

Veal!

Seems like the mystery is revealed as to why this style of bowling didn't last LOL!

Concept is similar

I've bowled both. Candlepin, and duck pin very similar. The candlepin ball is slightly smaller in size and weight. Other than the playing the dead wood,both versions are equally as hard. In know in candlepin, there has never been a perfect game. I'm not sure about duck pin.

Happens all the time!

It’s called a quarter-Worcester, and although rare, definitely possible.
