If you can't hold one of your oversized balls with the fingerholes,


then my advice about candlepin bowling makes even more sense.




-------------------------------




Candlepin bowling has been credited as being introduced in the late


1800's in Worchester, Massachusetts. Being a MA native, going


"bowling" to us as kids was always candlepin. I never saw a 10 pin


alley until I was much older.




I've done both over the years but still much prefer candlepin.




Are the balls the same size as 10 pin balls? I've never seen a candlepin

alley.



Not sure if anyone answered your question but there is quite a size difference and no holes in the smaller ball.
