Abstract: A dismemberable target for projectile sports includes a central component comprising magnets and detachable components also comprising magnets such that linear or branching arrays of detachable components may be assembled onto the central component. Detachable components may be magnetically detachable while being attached by lengths of cord so that when detached by projectile impact they remain in close proximity for ease of reassembly, and also so that a struck and detached component may drop and swing from the component to which it is tied. In particular embodiment, a dismemberable target is fashioned to look like a zombie or monster which may be sequentially dismembered by projectile shots. In other embodiments, target bodies or detachable components thereof may be fashioned to look like animals or a detachable assembly which resemble an animal, zombie, or monster.

Abstract: A slingshot-like skill game device comprises a body and a handle attached to the body. The body includes an opening designed to permit a ball to pass therethrough. When the slingshot-like skill game device is outfitted with a ball attached thereto by an elongated elastic cord, a user may grasp the handle with one hand, grasp the ball with another hand, pull the ball away from the body, and then release the ball with the object of getting the ball to pass through the opening on release. A ring-shaped insert may be attached to the opening, so as to decrease the diameter of the opening and thereby increase the level of difficulty required for a user of the slingshot-like skill game device to get the ball to pass through the opening. Additional ring-shaped inserts of varying diameters may also be provided to further increase the level of difficulty for a user of the slingshot-like skill game device. The body may include one or more light sources that may be activated when a ball passes through the opening.
