Throwing game

Abstract

A throwing game that can be played by a single or multiple players wherein the method of the game includes tossing a throwing member from specified distances towards a target member. The target member is triangular in shape having walls defining and internal area. Disposed within the internal area is an inner target member that is cylindrical in shape having an opening providing access to the interior volume. The present invention includes a throwing member wherein the throwing member is triangular in shape. The walls of the target member further include upper wall members secured to the upper edge of the walls. A preferred method of play of the game includes utilization of five throwing members per play rotation for each player wherein the players toss the throwing member from specified distances. Winning is achieved by landing a throwing member in the inner target member prior to any other player.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method of executing play of a throwing game wherein the method comprises the steps of:
 providing a target member, said target member being triangular in shape, said target member having three walls defining an internal area, said internal area having an inner target member disposed therein;   placing the target member, wherein the target member is placed in a desired location;   determining player rotation, wherein player rotation is determined by tossing a throwing member at the target member;   deciding a player to be first in the player rotation, wherein the player to be first in the rotation tossed a throwing member closest to the inner target member;   initiating a first round of play, said first round of play comprising of tossing five throwing members at the target member for each player;   completing the first round of play, wherein all players execute a turn of tossing the throwing member five time at the target member;   moving to a next distance, wherein the players move to a distance that is farther than a distance of the first round of play;   engaging in a second round of play, wherein the players toss the throwing member at the target member five times in the second round of play;   completing the second round of play;   advancing through subsequent rounds of play, wherein each subsequent round of play is at a distance greater than a distance of a previous round of play;   determining a winner of the throwing game, wherein the winner is determined by a player landing a throwing member within the inner target member prior to any other player at a distance that is farthest away from the target member.   
     
     
         2 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 1 , wherein the inner target member is cylindrical in shape having an opening at an upper end thereof proving access to an interior volume. 
     
     
         3 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 2 , wherein the throwing member is triangular in shape. 
     
     
         4 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 3 , and further including a step of issuing a card to a player, wherein a player is issued a card upon landing all throwing members tossed in a rotation in the target member. 
     
     
         5 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 4 , wherein the card includes instructions for a player and wherein the player in possession of the card issues the instructions to an opposing player. 
     
     
         6 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 5 , wherein the walls of the target member further include an upper wall member, said upper wall member being secured to an upper edge of the walls, said upper wall member having a length that is less than that of a length of the walls. 
     
     
         7 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 6 , and further including the step of advancing to a next distance during a round of play, wherein a player advances to the next distance upon landing a throwing member within the interior volume of the inner target member. 
     
     
         8 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 7 , and further including a step of returning to a previous distance, wherein a player is required to return to a previous distance upon failure to land any throwing members within the target member during a round of play. 
     
     
         9 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 8 , and further including a step of selecting five distances to utilize to toss the throwing member during each round of play. 
     
     
         10 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 9 , and further including a step of eliminating a player from the throwing game, wherein the player is eliminated from the throwing game upon an inability to land any throwing member in the target area. 
     
     
         11 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 10 , and further including a step of providing special privileges, wherein a player is awarded a special privilege upon a throwing member landing in a unique location on the target member. 
     
     
         12 . The method of executing play of the throwing game as recited in  claim 11 , wherein the distances for each round of play increase in length from the target member by five feet.
