It was at one point: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowling_at_the_Summer_Olympics

According to that, the main issue is cost, and that bowling lacks inexpensive or easy access for youth in the underdeveloped world to acquire skill and proficiency.

Bowling would actually be a good addition to the Olympics apart from these limitations Undecided

Bowling is definitely a sport: there's competition and it's physical. As to why it's not included in the olympics, could be because it's a 1st world type of sport; less likely to see this is Africa where people are struggling to get by. I think it should be a sporting event, for sure.

Because there is no measurable difference in success. Jumping and athletics are measured through speed or style or execution.
Bowling could only reliably be measured in how many strikes you get in a row, and if you bowl for 2 years, you can put your mind to it and only get strikes.
I suppose you could measure ball velocity, but eventually you're gonna have 30 m/s projectiles flying down a bowling lane wrecking whatever stands in its way.
