Patent ID: 8202180

Claim:
A device for launching a flying disc comprising: a frame having a handle section and an open forked section, said opened forked section including a pair of opposing forks wherein each said fork has a distal end and a proximal end with the distal end being free and the proximal end adjoining the proximal end of the opposing fork at a pivot point; and, flexible material located between said opposing forks and being attached to said opposing forks so as to be capable of forming a relatively deep elongated channel having an open end such that a forceful swing of the device will cause a flying disc located in the channel to roll in the channel and out through the open end of the channel at a high rate of speed, and wherein said forks cooperate with each other so that when the proximal ends of said forks are gripped and squeezed the forks pivot about the pivot point and move inwardly towards each other to form said channel in said flexible material, said forks further being outwardly biased relative to each other so that they spring back about the pivot point to an open position when a user's grip on the forks' proximal is released.
