What kind of range does a throwstick have?
The throwstick, (also known as the hunting boomerang, or kylie), is an ancient yet scientifically advanced hunting multi-tool which when thrown at a target, maintains a straight and flat flight trajectory across great, open distances. It is capable of taking small and mid sized game at ranges out past at least 80 meters / 87 yards or more.
What’s the best way to release a throwing stick?
Slowly and repeatedly raise the throwing arm up and back until the throwing stick crosses the back at about a 45-degree angle or is in line with the non-throwing hip. Bring the throwing arm forward until it is just slightly above and parallel to the non-throwing arm. This will be the throwing stick’s release point.

What kind of wood do you use to make a throwing stick?

If a stick cannot be found with the appropriate angle, it may be possible to warp green wood by heating it over coals to make is pliable, bending it, and placing the bent stick between two rocks until it cools off and dries.

What should the diameter of a throwing stick be?
The diameter should be approximately the size of the thrower’s wrist. The throwing stick can be round or flattened, much like the shape of an airplane wing. To flatten, shave off two opposite sides so that the stick is flat like a boomerang.
