Abstract
A target is shaped in the form of an animate object, preferably, simulating an animal. The target is formed from any suitable material which can receive a projectile impacting thereagainst. The target is provided with a torso opening in which is emplaced a graphic representation of the internal organs of the animal so simulated. The present target is particularly adapted for use in archery.
Claims4
A target comprising:
- (a) a flat, planar score sheet with indicia imprinted thereon having substantially the same configuration and position as the internal organs of an animate object;
- (b) a main body simulating the form of an animate object, said body having a construction which reduces the speed of a projectile impacting thereagainst or penetrating there into;
- (c) the main body having a normally open vertical slot, said slot having a rectangular cross section in the horizontal plane defining means for removably receiving and retaining said score sheet, said slot being dimensioned greater than the score sheet and extending between portions of the main body such that emplacement of the score sheet within the slot substantially hides the score sheet from the view of the user;
- (d) means within said slot for draining the slot;
- said main body being constructed from material of such thickness and density that a projectile penetrating the main body will traverse the slot and the score sheet emplaced there within.
