I found some small cones at Target. They were in the sporting goods section with the soccer supplies. Great visual aide for students!

A guy I bowled with in college built something using PVC.  A support was in each gutter and a long piece connected the two.  We then hung a piece of fabric over your target.  The benefit of this over what the Turbo video is showing that if you missed, you didn't have to walk back down the lane and reset everything.  And I can imagine hitting several boards off and sending one of the cones flying onto someone else's lane.

I just built one of these out of 1/2" pvc, took maybe 4 minutes to cut the pipe, I can get measurements for anyone that wants one...... I used string and a container out of the toy machines at the center.......

There is an article in November's Bowlers International mag about the PVC setup. It has pieces of carpet for the target area.

I saw that, I think that method is a little better because you don't run into the issue of resetting it if you hit the cones. Nonetheless its a cool tool and something that can be utilized to help refine your game.
