Benefits of technology

[0007]Therefore, it is one object of the present invention to provide a target shooting game that overcomes the drawbacks and deficiencies of the prior art. It is another object of the present invention to provide a target shooting game that allows one or more shooters to play the target shooting game in a competitive format. It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a target shooting game for use in connection with firearms that shoot a projectile towards a target surface, such as a paper target or the like. It is a still further object of the present invention to provide a target shooting game that provides some indication of a successful “hit” on the target surface, which is easily visible to the shooter. It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a target shooting game that provides some indication of a “hit” within the context of the game. It is another object of the present invention to provide a target shooting game that is useful in connection with a shooting device that projects a signal towards the target surface, such as a video screen or monitor. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a method of playing a target shooting game.

Problems solved by technology

However, other than these well-known paper targets, there are few other options for shooters for increasing their accuracy, while, at the same time, enjoying their time at the range.

Abstract

A target shooting game including a shooting device for projecting a signal or projectile; a target having a target surface including a target area; and at least one indicator associated with a portion of the target area and for indicating an interaction with the signal or projectile. A method of playing a target shooting game is also disclosed.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates generally to target shooting, including real and virtual shooting devices and systems and, in particular, to a target shooting game that provides some indication of an interaction with a signal or a projectile and / or includes an appropriate set of rules identifying the attempts to interact, order of attempted interaction, manner of interaction and / or permitted or suggested interaction with discrete, positioned targets of a target area on a target.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]According to the prior art, in the practice and use of firearms, paper targets are used at a firing range. As is known, these paper targets typically consist of “bullseye” targets, where a shooter attempts to score “hits” as close to the center of the bullseye as possible. Similarly, paper targets are available that have the design of some animal thereon, such that the shooter may practice his or her acc...
