    I should have read your earlier post more carefully. I could swear that I've heard Randy Pederson call them range finders, but I probably don't listen as carefully as I should either.

    Here's a lot of the info on the rangefinder in this old thread
    http://www.bowlingboards.com/threads...ll=1#post13032

    Here are the original instructions for the "Rangefinder" (that's what the dots and arrows are called. It doesn't have the breakpoint markers. Those are a modern addition to the lanes.)

    Rangefinder ® system by Brunswick
    It was invented by Lowell Jackson back in the 1930's
