Would love to do some atlatl throwing again, not really sure if there is a way to legally do it in the park or somewhere like that though and my garden is far too short for it.
I looked up a while back, the nearest NFAS club is miles away and not sure if they would allow atlatls or not.
You can get rubber blunt arrowheads though, pretty sure that could be used in public just fine as its not like its a weapon. Go for a quiet spot so that no one is really aware of it in the first place and they can’t complain.
When were arrows invented, though?
Approximately 500,000 years ago, when someone made a tiny spear. They just didn’t know it was an arrow at the time.
I mean what is an arrow, but a much smaller spear?
There were those little flinger things that they’d put little spears on. Those might be considered proto arrows.
Yeah, atlatls had fletched arrows

I wonder if a local archery range would let you do it. Probably have to byoa though

Thanks, had forgotten “atlatl,” gonna try it in NYT Spelling Bee next time it has those letters.
In my archaeology/anthropology classes in college, we were taught to say “projectile points” instead of “arrowheads” for basically this reason.
About 300 years after the invention of the bow, which is crazy.
It meant that the value of archers was really low from a military point of view. Those nerds were useless.
About three years into Youtube. Everybody missed this Easter egg.
