Get ready for a strike in the evolution of bowling! String pinsetters are a revolutionary technology that's changing the game. But what exactly are they, and how do they work?
This blog post from Flying, a leading bowling equipment provider, dives deep into the world of string pinsetters.
What is a Bowling String Pinsetter?
Unlike traditional free-fall pinsetters that rely on gravity to reset pins, string pinsetters utilize a sophisticated network of strings and pulleys. Here's a breakdown:
String System: Durable strings are attached to each pin's top.
Lifting Mechanism: A computer-controlled drawbar raises and lowers the strings.
Pin Resetting: After a roll, the system lifts all pins. The computer determines which pins remain standing and lowers only those for the next frame.
Benefits of String Pinsetters
String pinsetters offer several advantages over traditional models:
Reduced Maintenance: Simpler design with fewer moving parts means easier and faster repairs, minimizing downtime.
Cost-Effectiveness: Lower maintenance and operation expenses translate to savings for bowling alley owners.
Improved Efficiency: Quicker pin resetting allows for faster gameplay, increasing customer throughput.
Quieter Operation: String systems generate less noise, creating a more pleasant bowling experience.
Are String Pinsetters the Future?
While string pinsetters offer undeniable benefits, some debate surrounds their impact on the game itself. Here's what we know:
USBC Certification: As of August 2023, the United States Bowling Congress (USBC) has certified string pinsetters for competitive play with specific regulations.
Potential Scoring Differences: Research suggests a slight decrease in strike percentages compared to free-fall pinsetters.
A Different Bowling Experience: The overall feel of the game might differ due to the nature of string pin action.

How many lanes does it take to open a bowling alley?
There's no strict rule on the number of lanes required to open a bowling alley. It depends on your business goals and target market.
Here's a breakdown to help you decide:
- Small niche alleys: Some bowling alleys might focus on a specific audience, like a boutique bowling alley with just a few lanes catering to a high-end clientele. They might have other revenue streams besides just bowling, like a fancy restaurant or bar.
- Traditional bowling alleys: These typically have many lanes, often around 8 to 24 lanes , to accommodate a larger number of bowlers and maximize revenue through lane rentals.
- Mini bowling: Certain alleys might offer mini bowling, which uses lighter balls and shorter lanes. This could be a good option for a family entertainment center and wouldn't require a large number of standard lanes.
Ultimately, the number of lanes is a business decision based on your target market, budget, and the overall experience you want to create.
