Throwing Stick, Indian Rabbit Stick. Gary J 

Thanks, Gary. It’s good to see a video where an intelligent person knows how to demonstrate the throwing stick. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

Thank you for posting. Not too shabby for a 30 yard throw. It's easy to see that even at this distance. flock "shooting" is easily possible. Pretty effective device when ya consider how often we surprise critters on walks at really close distances. Things aren't always the way people view hunting when they dream of long shots with scoped rifles and compound bows with sights full of pins.

Riggs, they are fun to throw. They were made to throw about 10-30 ft. I just wanted to see how they do at 30 yds.

cool 😊

Nice throwing and I'll be attempting to make one myself...found an excellent article in the backwoodsman magazine on how to do it

Hahaha. You know 1, 2, 3, not going to help you throw that

That's a nice looking rabbit stick. I might try my hand at making one of those.

Thank you Master Tracker.

Jason this one is about 30% thicker than a regular one. It throws beautifully. There is a specific aerodynamic design to these type that help them go straight and level.

I admire your video and data very much . Thanks from Apache land NM . Lefty

first throw at 5:40!

Thanks Mike, I will check it out.

That was pretty cool 😊

by the time you got through with your wind up's the critter would have run off

Thanks Wade. They are not easy to make. the airfoil is the difficult part and getting the right curve in the stick. I have some that I throw over a 100 meters.

Fanblinkingtastic!

Riggs, I might hit something in a flock. These are made for probably less than 30 feet.

It looks like the stick corects it's tragectory as it flies. Was that day windy or the stick flies like that?

You're right bad hat. I would go hungry.

It looks too heavy and does not fly straight enough even for medium hunting distances. How far is the target?

Angle this is more a tutorial, not real life hunting video. You need to try throwing these sticks. They are a lot of fun. And be nice Angle!

That is not a Hopi stick! It looks likes a half boomerang. My cousin is Hopi and I half Apache we used sticks with a partial bow in them, when we were kids. We would age it, if we could not, we burnt them for hardening. We practiced over and over from large targets to a smal target the size of a rock. We hunted Rabbits and squirrels. I teach may son these tactics and skills today. Done correctly you can do it with limited body motion from a squating, running or hidden positon. We could get a good 25 to 45 yards depending on the weight and size of stick also the quiter the better.

You hold on to the stick to long. 1.2.3 don`t work, the rabbit would have been 2 miles away by the time you let that stick go.

Aborigines in Australia use these to live, not the one shown though, it is way too pretty too use for living

Need a dog to retrieve it for you....
