English term

scratch

English to Spanish Other Sports/Bowling
Bowling term meaning "Without benefit of handicap; actual score".

Is there a Latin American Spanish equivalent for this term or is it used in English?
Other terms I need help on:

Split
Definition: A spare leave in which the headpin is down and the remaining combination of pins have an intermediate pin down immediately ahead of or between them.

Thanks a lot!

scratch=sin gabela, raso, sin ventaja split=dividido

I have found many spanish texts with the term in english (scratch), but I think it could be translated as "sin ventaja" o "sin gabela" (see reference). An option could to put the term in english quoted and the translation in parenthesis: "scratch" (sin ventaja).

I would translate split to: dividido. You could use the same solution: "split" (dividido).

"scratch"

Split is commonly used in Boling (Boliche) in many Latin American Countries.

I don\'t know about \"scratch\", maybe it is a part of a particular bowling rule.

Below is a mexican bowling site, maybe this can be helpful

cero de handicap

´Lelgué tarde a esta pero me parece que "scratch" también se usa como "partir de cero". En golf, scratch es el que tiene handicap cero.

En castellano también se dice scratch al golfista sin handicap
