In duckpin bowling, players attempt to knock over bowling pins with a bowling ball. The balls used in duckpin bowling are significantly smaller than those used in ten-pin bowling, and weigh two to four pounds. Bowlers repeatedly throw or roll the ball down a lane in an attempt to knock the bowling pins over. The pins, like the balls, are smaller than their ten-pin equivalents, and it is therefore more difficult to knock them all down with a single throw. The pins are arranged in a triangular fashion identical to that used in ten-pin bowling. [more on wikipedia]
