int xpos=0, ypos=0, rings=4, radius=30;

public boolean mouseDown(Event e,int x, int y)

{
xpos=x;
ypos=y;
repaint();
return true;
}
public void paint(Graphics g)
{
g.setColor(Color.black);
g.drawString("This is a canvas",105,20);
g.drawLine(xpos-20,ypos,xpos+20,ypos);//cross-hair cursor
g.drawLine(xpos,ypos-20,xpos,ypos+20);

}

If you don't mind that the cursor of the OS is there, simply create a mouselistener, attach it to your canvas, and draw the bullseye at the cursor's position when you receice a mouseClicked event.
To have your bullseye follow oyur mouse, you can use the MouseInfo class to get the cursor's position anytime.
