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.
