What is "pinsetting"?
Pinsetting in bowling refers to the process of arranging the pins back into their proper positions at the end of the lane after each roll. In traditional bowling, this task is often done manually by pinsetters, while in modern bowling centers, it is typically automated by machines. Pinsetting ensures that the pins are placed correctly for the next player's turn. It is an essential part of the game, as it prepares the lane for the next roll and helps maintain the flow of the game.
