ABSTRACT:
A visual target device includes a target object and a suspension member or cord. The visual target device can be suspended within a basketball rim to provide a point of focus for a basketball player while shooting. The target object is smaller than the basketball rim such that the shooter has a more precise target to aim at. The target object is typically suspended from the rim at or below the level of the rim such that the target object does not prevent the basketball from entering the rim. The target object can be suspended from the rim by an elastic cord or other elastic means such that the target object can be pushed aside as the basketball enters the rim. The suspension cord can include a vertical component for properly positioning the target object below the rim.
