ABSTRACT:
A wall hanging toss game includes a generally flat, rigid member having a first surface suitable for printing with a plurality of recesses formed therein spaced from one another. A plurality of generally thin, wafer-like hook material targets are adhesively secured to the rigid member in the recesses of the first surface, such that the targets appear generally flush with the first surface and appear separated from one another by open areas of the first surface, wherein the ratio of open area to target area is preferably greater than one to one dependant upon the particular design desired. A shock absorbing projectile covered with or made of loop material is capable of being securely held in place when in contact with the hook material targets and reduces bounce-back when impacting the non target areas. A catch member is provided for catching and supporting the projectile, when the projectile hits the first surface and falls vertically downwardly after missing the targets. The invention is a combined decorative wall hanging and wall toss game. The wall hanging is convertible to a wall toss game with the catch area extending outwardly from the rigid member for catching missed tosses.
