My 21st and first Massachusetts bowling center. 22 Candlepin lanes.......

My 21st and first Massachusetts bowling center. This center is the largest of any of my previous centers at 22 lanes and my first candlepin center as all 20 of my previous centers were tenpins and ranged between 4 and 10 lanes. While at the time of this video I had only owned the center for 5 days many projects are planned for the center in the future to resemble my tenpin centers.

How Much it cost to build

[BIGGREENLEAF1]

When it is finished in April with the computer scorers and new masking units, etc. with the building purchase and everything about 1.3 million.....New videos will be posted as the remodel takes place soon......

hey since you own the place, grab a normal 10pin ball and throw it down the lane lol...I've always wanted to see that.

We did that in one of my tenpin places, set up some candlepins and threw a tenpin ball down at them, the ball obviously just drove through them. You can't do that on a candlepin lane because there is no oil on the lane to protect it from the impact of the tenpin ball.

wow impressive .. I will show you how our bowling center works with our pin decks this weekend I will post a new video I promise

[BIGGREENLEAF1]

Well I saw the front end video you posted with the pins dropping down the tubes, I really want to see the pit and backend how everthing gets up there and in position much like the turntable and elevators on my Bowl-Mor machines. Thanks, Assassins14

Very cool! I love that vintage look although I cannot stand candlestick. I am a 10 pinner myself and grew up with this style. Thanks for sharing!

BIGGREENLEAF1 keep this CANDLEPIN bowling center. As a candlepin bowler of 35 years it's getting harder to find good candlepin bowling centers in New England and Canada. 2 questions I have: 1. Do u have a website set up for Agawam? 2. If any tournaments are held there upstairs or downstairs?

Oh a 3rd question: Do u hope that MORE Candlepin bowling centers can be established?
