corner pins

Bowling's outer targets

Corner pins are the four outermost pins in bowling—the 7 and 10 pins in the back row.

These are the hardest to knock down on a spare attempt because they require precise targeting at extreme angles.

A bowler who consistently converts corner pin spares demonstrates control and accuracy.

In video editing and motion graphics, corner pins are the four control points used to distort or reposition an image within a frame, enabling perspective adjustments.
