Patent ID: 7114725

Claim:
A vertical rotary shooting target apparatus comprising: a stand having a horizontally extending axle; a target structure mounted on said axle for rotational movement; said target structure including a mounting hub mounted on the axle for free relative rotation and a pair of target impact plates, each impact plate having a respective support structure which supports a single impact plate for rotational movement with said mounting hub; and said support structures for said impact plates fixedly support the impact plates radially outwardly of said hub on opposite diametrically opposed sides thereof and in laterally offset relation to each other in a direction parallel to the axis of said axle without any other impact plate being disposed at a common lateral position with respect to the mounting hub such that impact upon said impact plates as an incident to shooting will cause rotation of said target structure about said axle with a shooter being required to shoot in laterally-offset directions to shoot different impact plates of the rotary target.
