Ring roughly 3 feet (1 meter) across

HOW TO PLAY
1

Draw a circle on the ground and have every player place a few marbles inside it.

2

Each player keeps one larger marble aside as their shooter, called the taw.

3

Take turns kneeling outside the ring and flicking your taw with your thumb to knock marbles out.

4

Keep any marble you knock clear of the ring and shoot again from wherever your taw landed.

5

If your taw stops inside the ring your turn ends and play passes to the next player.

6

Play until the ring is empty; whoever collected the most marbles wins.
