Abstract

Abstract A sailing disk and catch game is formed of at least one hand held catch baton having on a distal end a strip fixable attached about the periphery of the rod with radially projecting short length hooks on a radially outer surface of the strip. A thin, hand throwable sailing disk consists of a unitary, light weight semi-rigid, soft highly porous non-woven plastic fiber material with the exposed plastic fibers on the surface thereof constituting with the short length hooks of the baton strip, a two component hook and loop releasable fastening system. The game is readily applicable to indoor play since the sailing disk weighs at the most several ounces and has little impact force when thrown in the style of a FRISBEE® sailing disk, for catching during flight by the hand held catch baton.
