Yep . The game is a bit ridiculous but I have a teenager who is inviting his parents out for (looonnng) walks that involve pleasant conversations. On a slightly more professional side I'm hearing stories of actual weight loss in patients...way more walking combined with not sitting next to the refrigerator has its pluses. I may have lost a pound too.
Oh well, these things seem funnier at night when I have a cold adult beverage in my hand.
The artist is Hugues Bovy (1841-1903), a Swiss sculptor and F. Beauverd. The event was the 1896 National Shooting Exposition in Geneva. Mintage in silver is 966 (?). It's not a collection path I ended up following, but this one somehow jumped into my hands when I saw it at a show.
Atlas Numismatics has a bunch of shooting medals for sale that shows the huge variety and overall coolness of them Here is one that sold: 1896 Geneva. It's the bronze version of the silver one Pikachu likes so much. And here is a link that shows the gamut of styles: Atlas' Swiss shooting medals. I think a few other coins made their way into the search results, but it's pretty close.
