I’m still looking for a piece of bone or suitable stone for an arrow head but some unfortunate bird conveniently left half of its wing near my campsite, so at least I got the fletching done.

I also don’t even have a bow but maybe that’s the next project then.

    Agree that you want batches.

    If you are interested in using them you may want to look up Dutch arrows, it’s an arrow you can throw with a bit of string.

    Only thrown them once before, I would like to try stuff like that again but I don’t really have the space to do it and suspect it would be illegal to use on public land here in the UK.

    Atlatls are another fun one, bigger though. More of a javelin.

      I’ve been getting into slingling a bit. It’s wildly inaccurate but you can reach impressive distances and it packs quite the punch.
