Abstract
An outdoor game target construction to be hand pressed or impact-driven into a ground area forming the field surface, a series of targets being disposed in spaced apart locations on said surface and each when aimed at and successfully struck by a game ball rolling on said surface will emit a distinctive sound indicative of the fact that it had been hit. The invention also includes an improved and simplified means for mechanically mounting a sound producing cylinder to a ground stake whereby the cylinder will have universal swinging movement upon the stake insuring that the target will emit a sound when struck by a ball aimed at it from any angle.
