I love seeing tenpin bowlers try to bowl candlepins. Most are aggravated at first but want to try again. Just because the balls are small doesn't mean it's easy.

[@bryqi2229]

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

[@kevinbadburn03]

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.

[@georgef551]

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

[@kodyklm]

[@TADMG]

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.

[@ryanchapman5688]

I've candlepin bowled for 13 years and it's one of the hardest games to keep consistent in! You can bowl a 150 first string and drop to under 100 the second string

[@caseysmith544]

@@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.

[@lacampbellmd1]

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

[@STORMVISE]

Candlepin centers are so cool because they are generally older. This center doesn't have arrows on the lanes! A lot of centers also have the ball returns on 1, 2-3, 4-5, etc...because it was easier for the pinboys to go back and forth between lanes that way (lanes 1-2 etc.)

[@GrabFam]

I love candlepin bowling. I started as a Pin Setter at the school that I went to. After that, I got a job at the National Bowling Hall of Fame and Museum when it was in St. Louis, MO. At the NBHFM, they had 8 lanes in the basement, and 4 of those were for Candlepin and Duck Pin bowling. It was a BLAST.

[@steveperry1344]

i've bowled candlepin my whole life and it is rediculously hard.. back in the 70's and 80's i bowled in two leagues and had a 105 average but i'm 72 now and can barely crack a 90 average. it's the only bowling i've ever done and used to be very popular in massachusetts but it has waned over the last 25 years which is a shame.but we have more younger people in our league this year, yeah!!!

[@Cory_Springer]

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!

[@steveperry1344]

@@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.

[@christopherstevens2777]

I love candle pin grew up watching my parents in leagues and then joined their team when I got old and confident enough! Still the best bowling 😁

[@maxpowr90]

So many terms that 10-pin bowlers will never hear: "half-Worcester" (hit the 2-8 or 3-9 pins), or "spread eagle" (hit the 1-5 pins). Yes, I do own candlepin bowling balls.

[@janderson8401]

Happy Birthday Maddie! I've bowled duck pins a few times. Candle pins definitely look harder.

[@craigpowers2777]

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.

[@chadsimmons8319]

Love Baker format.... great content

[@braydonbook1598]

Hey Packy I'm an average bowler in no where WV and I love the show. And for some reason I do have a candlepin ball but have never bowled with it. I like to practice with it. I usually put a few old pillows down and do no step drills for how ever long I need to

[@josephbazarnik7878]

Happy Birthday, looks harder than regular bowling

[@erikthorstensen5185]

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.

[@Wolfman12395]

I really like your throwing style for Candlepin Packy, have you tried to bowl two handed with Candlepin before? XD

[@theinsaneshecklador6598]

Awesome. I've always wanted to see a PBA player shoot candlepin.

[@erikthorstensen5185]

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.

[@theinsaneshecklador6598]

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

I grew up on 5 pin, switched as a teen to 10 pin. I loved tournaments and while at one, afterwards we went out and tried other types. 5 pin in Canada, duckpin in Quebec, 10 pin all over north America and the candlepin in the northeast. Candlepin is the most aggravating $#@^/$%÷× up type of bowling there is. But it was hilariously fun to watch others get the same $@$÷$^ results. I used to be able to rocket that little ball back in the day, but I still sucked. Only ever hit 100 once, no strikes at all. Great beer game though as anyone can win. I miss those days.

Hey Packy. I have stumbled on these two videos where you're doing candlepin bowling and I think for being a regular tenpin bowler you're not doing too bad I sure as heck don't think I'd be doing any better. But out of the numerous tournaments for candlepin that I have watched it seems like the bowlers throw the ball with great speed I mean it's like one and a half seconds from hand to the pit so maybe you ought to try seeing all of you guys I know it's going to be hard for your sister but try throwing the ball a lot

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.
