Abstract

An apparatus for a disc tossing game is a free-standing target with a scoring sheet supported in a vertical orientation by a target support frame, which is perpendicularly attached to a base frame. The scoring sheet comprises a plurality of edge loops, within which the components of the target support frame are positioned in order to support the scoring sheet. The components of the target support frame and the base frame are elongated rods attached to each other at right angles by elbow fittings and tee fittings. The base frame comprises a number of stabilizing supports to prevent the target from falling over. The scoring sheet comprises a plurality of scoring holes, or slots, of various shapes, sizes, and positionings, through which players attempt to throw a sport disc in order to score points.
