20 Recommended Vendor: Ten-Pin Construction LLC Computerized scoring Is extremely user friendly and easy to learn Allows league record service, lane control and more options Brunswick Vector flat screen overheads Connects to the bumpers so that when designated for a specific bowler the bumpers will automatically come up and go down for non-designated bowlers
