A pitching deck apparatus with a resiliently mounted upper surface, having a pad of woven material on the surface and a target area in the approximate center thereof. In use, flat discs are propelled toward the surface of the pitching deck, the object being to direct the disc accurately enough to stop in the recess portion of the upper surface of the pitching deck. The discs may be of metal or other suitable material and may have a rubber or elastomeric covering thereon such that the cooperation between the resilient mountings of the upper surface, the woven material covering the upper surface and the impinging disc closely simulate the surface characteristics of the ground.
A shallow inverted circular saucer shaped first member has upper and lower exposed surfaces. A flat ring shaped second member has an inner periphery spaced from and surrounding the first member and also has upper and lower exposed surfaces. The first and second members are detachably interconnected. A plurality of vertical prongs cooperate with the members. One prong has an upper end secured to the center of the lower surface of the first member. The remaining vertical prongs have upper ends secured to the lower surface of the second member and are equidistantly spaced from each other.
A disk tossing game in which a target board is oriented essentially horizontally, but with a slight upward tilt in a front-to-rear direction. The target board surface is formed by a layer of soft foam material, such that a tossed disk landing on the target surface tends to remain at its initial landing point rather than rebounding away from the target surface.
Toss game apparatus for alternate use as a target for thrown projectiles or as a support for supporting an individual playing the toss game includes a frame and a top panel mounted on the frame and deflectable relative to the frame. Interior support members attached to the top panel limit the degree of deflection of the top panel. Carpeting is positioned on the top panel having an upper layer of upwardly projecting fabric fibers angled toward one of the frame ends.
A game in which annular disks or rings are pitched or tossed at targets provided on each of two similar game mats. Each game mat comprises a small piece of carpet-like material having a stake extending above it and disposed immediately behind a circular aperture of greater diameter than the annular disks or rings. The game mats are spaced by approximately 20 feet and the rings are tossed from behind one game mat toward the other game mat. Points are given according to the proximity of the ring to the aperture after the ring has landed. If a player is able to produce a "ringer" by having the ring land directly over the stake, he wins automatically. Otherwise, the first player to reach a given number of points in his point score is the winner.
A cap toss game which utilizes a game board having a flat receiving surface which may optionally be fitted with either the pile or loop element of a loop-pile fastener and is provided with an opening in the center that may receive a net. The game board may be suspended from a door or wall or elevated on legs to facilitate tossing bottle caps, with a view toward striking those areas of the game board closest to the opening or, most preferably, tossing the bottle caps through the opening. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the bottle caps are fitted with one element of the loop-pile fastener for engaging the opposite element of the loop-pile fastener attached to the game board and retaining the bottle cap on the game board for scoring purposes.
