The arrows are there to help with accuracy, as are the dots on the approach. if you vary where you stand, and always hit the same arrow, you have a much easier time getting higher scores. Also, it helps if you don't vary your style too much.

they are for targets. the sets of dots at the start of the approach are for lining up your feet. the dots 5-7 feet past the foul line, are the bowler's target. the arrows 15 feet down there are also targets. the Bowling can choose where he wants to look. You may also look at the pins, but using the dots and arrows are more effective.

well, you could use nearly any arrow as your guide arrows, depending on your hand. if you us your righht hand, the normal strike arrows are the second and third on the right side, for a a7 or 10 pin the oppisite side of the fourth arrow would be the right place. These all depend on your balls hook though, so you should practice first.

A standard 10-pin bowling lane is 41.5 inches wide. There are 39 boards, and the arrows are spaced every 5 boards. Consequently, the arrows are 5.32 inches apart on center.

They are targets used to roll your ball at. Depending on if you are trying to get a strike or picking up a spare, you would use your style of bowling to hit the appropriate target.
