Objective
Player or team to get their ball closest to the jack (small ball) wins the round and scores a point for each
ball closer than the nearest ball of their opponent. Player or team to reach 13 points first wins the game.
​
To Play
Draw a shooting circle in the sand approximately 5 to 8 feet wide. If you are not in the sand you can use
markers such as a rock or stick to mark the shooting circle.
​
To Decide Who Throws First
Any player stands inside and tosses the jack away from the shooting circle. Each player tosses one of their
balls at the jack. The player with the ball closet to the jack throws first to begin a round.
​
Scoring
Once a round begins, the player or team trailing tosses balls until landing one closer to the jack than the nearest ball of their opponent. The round ends when all balls have been thrown.
Winner throws to begin a new round either from the original circle or by drawing a new circle at the jack’s
location at end of the previous round.
​
Game ends when player or team reaches 13 points, though any pre-determined total is acceptable.
Measuring string is provided for use on close calls!
