Duckpin Bowling
Cincinnati's favorite casual nightlife activity
Keep Your Shoes On. Grab a Drink. Let's Roll.
Hoppin' Vines is proud to offer the Cincinnati area duckpin bowling! Duckpin bowling is a miniature, scaled-down version of full-sized bowling. The pins are shorter, the balls are smaller (fitting easily in your hand), and the rules are casual.
To best explain the concept, think of full-sized bowling. Now combine that with skee-ball, and you essentially have duckpin bowling! It is fun that the entire family can enjoy. No need to flip up the bumpers in this game, and best of all—no rented bowling shoes are required! Leave your regular shoes on, pick up a ball, and hold a drink in your other hand.
