ABSTRACT:
A target assembly comprising a target having a generally upright silhouette hinged to a base connected to a stake adapted to be anchored to the ground. A counterweight is attached to a downwardly extending arm adjacent the silhouette. The counterweight biases the silhouette in a generally upright position thereby the silhouette will move to a down position when hit with a projectile and automatically return to an upright position after the force of the projectile has been dissipated.
