Up in New England, they have something called candlepin bowling. The balls are much smaller with no finger hows (they fit in the palm of your hand) and the pins are straight.

It's much harder to get a strike.

This type of bowling is so ubiquitous in New England that growing up there, I didn't even know what real bowling was until I moved to California.
