What is the name of this game?

Do you mean paddle ball?

@SavoirFaire -Nope…this game had a racquetball attached to the string that was attached to a heavy plastic base that was placed on the ground.It was usually played by two people but you could also play with yourself.

Ah, I see. Could it be tetherball, then?

@SavoirFaire -No,the base was small,heavy plastic and sat on the ground.

Golf?

Jokari down toward the bottom is the fancy 1977 orange base ;)

Yay, @liminal! I think we have a winnah! Why do you wanna know, @lucillelucillelucille? Looking for more games to get beat at when I visit you?

@liminal YES! THAT IS IT! I must have that game!Thank you,thank you ,thank you! :)))
@Vunessuh -YES! THAT IS ALMOST IT! except you will crash and burn…not I :X

@lucillelucillelucille Should I be concerned? You seem a little delusional about all of this lately. Don’t be trippin’. XD

@Vunessuh -Your only concern will be trying not to cry with grief over your loss.
You will LOVE this game!

@lucillelucillelucille Yay! Yay! Yay! Sounds fun! And the only time I’ll cry is with laughter over you enduring your meatloaf punishment. Sucka!

I’ve never heard of this Jokari, sounds like a variation on Swingball.
Ahh, loads of fun thrashing the kids in the garden….yes i’m that competitive ;¬}

@ucme -I’ll take you on too! Hope you’re not a crybaby… ;)

@lucillelucillelucille Now there’s an interesting challenge! Be warned however, I take no prisoners. I’d have you wrapped around the pole like a spider’s prey ;¬}
Oh & as it happens I am a big crybaby, but only if I don’t get my own way…..only sometimes!

@ucme -You’re on! Now hop on a plane and bring your own paddle!

@lucillelucillelucille Ahh, now we have an issue. I’m scared of flying into a mountain!!
There goes that crybaby shit!! Unless I build a raft & use the paddle….....XD

@ucme – Mountains aren’t so bad.It’s landing in the ocean with all the sharks…

Here we go again, it always has to come back to Quint with @lucillelucillelucille doesn’t it?
The woman’s possessed ;¬}

@ucme -:)
