ABSTRACT:
The present invention pertains to a saucer like disc type of toy which is rotatably attached to one end of a monofilament or nylon string. A substantial length of said string is normally stored on an operator device such as a baton or wrist band controlled by the user. In use, the user removes a substantial length or all of said string from the storage device, grasps the saucer like disc in an inverted position and throws it with a flick of the wrist. In addition to its flying movement away from the user, the disc attains a rapidly spinning movement and when the disc extends the removed length of string to its limit, the spinning disc automatically reverses its direction of flight and returns to the operator.
