The term used in Bowling to describe the situation when the head pin is down but the other pins remain standing is called a "split." This occurs when the remaining pins are separated by a gap, making it challenging to convert the spare. A common example of a split is the 7-10 split, where the 7 and 10 pins are left standing on opposite corners of the pin deck. Splits often require skilled shots to convert into a spare.
