There's simply nothing to support this and while I considered speedying, I thought comments would be good; it's worth mentioning User:Perfecto noted this same analysis (searches find nothing aside from other "polish bowling" and "bowlers") in December 2005 and there has been absolutely no improvement or significant change since then. Inviting fellow user Calamondin12 for comment. SwisterTwister talk 04:34, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. This game undoubtedly exists, but apparently not as "Polish bowling." This name must be very local or else WP:MADEUP. More common names include ladder toss, ladder ball, Ladder Golf (a trademarked name), and Hillbilly Golf. All of these have a notable footprint on the Internet. The best course might be a Redirect to ladder toss, which is clearly the same game. Calamondin12 (talk) 12:22, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete or redirect to ladder toss, per nom and Calamondin12. Appears to be a variant name. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:49, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. While I agree that this appears to be describing the same game as ladder toss, lacking any WP:RS for this alternate name, a redirect would not be appropriate. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:08, 19 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
