ABSTRACT:
An outdoor game and associated apparatus having a plurality of goals, playing balls with holes drilled therein, and tapered elongate shooting sticks used for projecting the balls toward the goals is disclosed. The goals are buckets or mesh baskets elevated above ground level by a ring having a standard projecting therefrom which is insertable into the ground. The playing balls are spherical wooden balls having holes drilled therein. One hole runs through the center of the ball and is open on either end, whereas the second hole is drilled substantially normal and off-center to the first hole. The elongate tapered shooting stick is provided with a grip end and a cylindrical tip end which can be inserted in the holes in the playing balls and is used by a player to project the balls toward the goals by use of an underhand throwing motion. A method of play is also disclosed.
