its like 10 pin bowling but the bowling ball is much smaller and so are the pins and the pins are smaller and fatter.

I used to bowl duckpins when I was a kid, at the YMCA. My pals and I would swim at the pool on a Saturday and bowl a few games afterward. I enjoyed it more than "regular" bowling, which I used to do with my dad, who was a pretty fair league bowler when he was in his 40's (when I was 10-12 years old) We're talking mid 1960's.
