Method of Competitive Marksmanship and Game Therefore

A method of competitive marksmanship between at least two shooters shooting at dissimilar and distinct targets, comprising the steps of:

• (a) providing a first shooter with a first target of a first multiplicity of first graphic elements;
• (b) providing a second shooter with a second target of a second multiplicity of second graphic elements, each of the second graphic elements being dissimilar and visually different from each of the first graphic elements;
• (c) selecting target categories for the first target and the second target selected from a group consisting of:
• separate full force targets with the first target separate from and adjacent to the second target, a single split image target with the first target and the second target split on the single image target, and a single mixed target with the first graphic elements interspersed and mixed together with the second graphic elements in the single mixed target;
• (d) selecting engagement rules for the first shooter and the second shooter selected from the group consisting of:
• unlimited time and shots for firing at the first target and the second target, a pre-determined amount of time and unlimited shots for firing at the first target and the second target, and a pre-determined number of shots for firing at the first target and the second target;
• and
• (e) determining a winner based on the first shooter and the second shooter engaging the first target and the second target after selecting one of the selected categories and selecting one of the engagement rules.

• wherein the first and the second graphic elements in the single split image target comprise less elements than the first and the second graphic elements the separate full force targets,
• wherein the category of the separate full force targets includes the first shooter and the second shooter each being in different firing positions or different firing lanes,
• wherein the category of the single image target and the category of the single mixed target each includes the first shooter and the second shooter each sharing the same firing position or the same firing lane,
• (d) selecting engagement rules for the first shooter and the second shooter selected from the group consisting of:
• unlimited time and shots for firing at the first target and the second target until one shooter eliminates all respective graphic elements to be declared a winner, a pre-determined amount of time and unlimited shots for firing at the first target and the second target wherein greatest accumulate hit value in the pre-determined amount of time is a winner, and a pre-determined number of shots wherein highest accumulation of hit value is a winner after the pre-determined number of shots has been exhausted;
• and
• (e) determining a winner based on the first shooter and the second shooter engaging the first target and the second target after selecting one of the selected categories and selecting one of the engagement rules.

A system for competitive marksmanship between at least two shooters, shooting at dissimilar and distinct targets, comprising:

• (a) a first target having a first multiplicity of first graphic elements adapted for a first shooter;
• (b) a second target of a second multiplicity of second graphic elements adapted for a second shooter, each of the second graphic elements being dissimilar and visually different from each of the first graphic elements;
• (c) target categories for the first target and the second target selected from a group consisting of:
• separate full force targets with the first target separate from and adjacent to the second target, a single split image target with the first target and the second target split on the single image target, and a single mixed target with the first graphic elements interspersed and mixed together with the second graphic elements in the single mixed target;
• (d) engagement rules for the first shooter and the second shooter, the engagement rules selected from the group consisting of:
• unlimited time and shots for firing at the first target and the second target until one shooter eliminates all respective graphic elements to be declared a winner, a pre-determined amount of time and unlimited shots for firing at the first target and the second target wherein greatest accumulate hit value in the pre-determined amount of time is a winner, and a pre-determined number of shots wherein highest accumulation of hit value is a winner after the pre-determined number of shots has been exhausted.
