Nos. 3,328,033 and 5,062,640 show golf targets. The advertising of other parties show dart boards, for example the advertising of http: / / www.dart-stopbackboards.com on the internet. But none of the patents or publications show or suggest shooting arrows at dart boards and dart board structures that would be capable of handling the impact and destructiveness of arrows shot by archery bows.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0005]In general, my invention enables archery players to engage in target practice as well as archery games similar to darts, indoors or outdoors such as in a game room, back yard, a bedroom or an...
