10 pin or 5 pin

Inspired by Epidemics bowling thread. I was just curious if you prefer 10 pin or 5 pin bowling? Is 5 pin popular at all in the USA?

Yeah, I have never heard of a 5 pin bowling alley. 10 pin for me! I bowl for the high school, and in a local league. I have a blast [when I do good, of course].

10 pin when I do bowl. I played 5 pin a few times many years ago but now I don't know of any place that has 5 pin anymore. I had to move to 10 pin, I was basically lobbing the 5 pin ball half way down the lane. I never meant to it just happened.

yeah i have never even heard of five pin either.. with only five you couldnt get any 7-10 splits and we all know that those are the funnest thing in bowling

you know what, i havnt been bowling in like two years.. i used to be able to do it pretty decently, my high score is 142

not the best, but its better then most of my friends.

Wow... 5 pin is pretty popular in Canada.

"with only five you couldnt get any 7-10 splits" nope, but we get 2 - 2 splits (or bed posts). Bed posts are impossible to get down, I've only seen it done once.

I didn't realize that 5 pin was such a no-show in the states...
