Abstract

Abstract A target game which has a target having an outer face provided with a loop type of contact engaging material and a projectile for use in a target game. The projectile comprises an inner disk having inside and outside faces, a central opening, and a ring-shaped outer periphery. The outside face is provided with a hook type of contact engaging material adapted to engage the target. A cup member having a base with cylindrical sidewalls extending therefrom receives the inner disk with the ring-shaped outer periphery of the inner disk contacting the interior of the cup member sidewalls. The cup member has a central projection which is received within the disk central opening. The cup member base is formed of a complimentary loop type of contact engaging material for engaging the contact engaging material on the inner disk. An inner cylinder is received in the disk central opening over the cup member central projection and an outer cylinder is slidingly received over the disk outer periphery and over the cup member cylindrical sidewalls.
