ABSTRACT:
A two-piece target pigeon composed of (a) a ring with propeller wings extending radially and which are tilted in propeller fashion so that when spun about the centerline axis of the ring by a launching apparatus, the ring will displace itself axially through the air; and (b) a detachable target piece which is carried by the propellered ring in flight. Structure on the target pieces mutually intercooperate to hold the ring and target piece together in flight and to release the target when hit in flight by pellets. The structure includes legs with footed distal ends which disengage from the ring upon impact, so that the target will fall to earth simulating a "dead bird" while the propellered hub will continue in flight.
