    Very useful advice thanks. What technique would be used if you were throwing for maximum range rather than for hunting accuracy?

    You mentioned shorter darts. Is the short dart portrayed in the movie Apocalypto, real or just Hollywood's use of artistic license? I believe they also portrayed the use of short darts in "Quest For Fire"

    What about the dart thickness to full force throwing just like this you did?
    Thanks for the video.

    If only this was more modern like with the same materials modern day bow makers make them with. I would probably still prefer the traditional atlatl, but it would definitely catch the eye to people now days, especially if there were modern made darts as well with broad heads and practice heads for the users. You can market it as a sport as well as an optional hunting weapon if they desire basically something a little more natural and challenging, but also more fun in my opinion. There can be a dart board at a distance that you are aiming at for points and televise it or you can go hunting and put something on the table for the family! It’s a great and fun tool that more people should know about.

    If my dart has no energy and it bounces off the target what am I doing wrong? Using a two finger throw

    Wish you could of given a few dimensions how long the arrow and length of the Atlatl and how to make the fletchings? Maybe another video..

    Thanks for the video, I wonder if an atlatl dart or an arrow would be more effective on a deer.

    • @PrimitiveLifeways
      @PrimitiveLifeways  6 лет назад +1

      Thank you for the comment. The answer depends on the hunter. Both systems do well. However, animals have evolved to become faster and more paranoid. The atlatl evolved into the bow and arrow because of this. The bow is faster and many carry more energy.

    For anyone who was just curious how the device was used, this guy stops rambling about offtopic crap at around the 4:47 mark and he stops the demonstration at 6:09 before diving back into his unwanted prattling.

    You have short darts? I was led to believe in long darts of 5,6,7 ft length?

      Those are spears it was originally intended for spear but atlatl dart are usually around the size he has
