Abstract
A marksmanship target presenting a plurality of targets to view by competing marksmen. When a marksman's missile strikes a target on a side of a shield assigned to him, that target shifts to his opponent's side. Each target is provided with a cushion adapted to strike a plate, thereby damping movement and preventing rebound of the struck target. Each target is integrally formed with a narrow, forwardly extending lip and several annularly spaced, shock absorbing ribs secured to a marginal edge of the target and connecting the target to a support arm.
