are you trying to look like an expert, In a real situation you wouldnt be that close, you look like you trying to make people think you know what you are doing.
you look like a jack ass who wishes he was born a couple thousand years ago at that distance you could have done the same thing with a spear and been more accurate.
heck, there's another video where a 7 year old boy kills a deer at a dozen meters.
however, this video gets some credit for showing a good rate of fire. i'm not sure if he could make those into accurate shots but 1 shot every 2 seconds is pretty fast considering how unwieldy the darts seem.
Dude, nice reloading, I wanna make my own atlatl and darts just for the heck of it. I also don't wanna tick you off when you have an atlatl and darts in your hand.lol
@squidb8 NOPE. It'll run. I know you're joking, but point is (pun intended) these weapons extended the reach of humans. I few few/yards made all the difference.
Actually if you know how to stalk - instead of tree-stand sitting like most people are taught to do nowadays, it is not a big deal to get this close (yes, I do/have). The indians in America used to play a game called "swat deer." The name says it all. Google Tom Brown - he has a school for learning this.
at that range you could just have strangled the deer lmao. But seriously, if you want to get a doe in range, just tell her how fat she is, that'll get her running for you! Kidding aside, how do you plan on getting so close to a deer? I imagine using a blind, a bow and an arrow would be much more effective.
The only problem I have with an atlatl is the fact that thier is much movement involved in order to throw the dart, that is why I prefere a simple self-bow over one of these because you can simply aim and with the flick of the bowstring send an arrow to the target, at least for Deer hunting the atlatl would be very difficult. But anyone who hunts with an atlatl is hardcore, no doubt about it. You need some distance though, man.
And good luck not scaring the deer off with that big movement. I've seen a LOT of theorists talk about deer hunting with an atlatl. I have yet to see evidence of sucess though. The atlatl was meant for hunting huge animals that are unafraid of man (mamoth for example). It was used in groups so that many darts would be in the air at once. One man, one dart.... Your better off setting traps or making a bow.
Nice jacket! Is it caribou?

from that range you could have just reached out and strangled it, if it had been real. cave men didn't hunt in petting zoos.

10 yards is 30 ft , the socket on your dart is still on the atlatl hook when the target is hit. did the darts even fly? and yes i can cast an atlatl

@cliffcox66 : If you could get that close to the broad side of a deer and it hadn't run yet, it's obviously to stupid to live.
I understand what the atlatl did for hunting. I figured increased the distance out past ten feet.

@squidb8 , sure, sure, you're absolutely right. Please go on and explain more to me.

Well in reality, you have the dart "loaded" already so a swift arm movement is the only movement required.

This target is at 10 yrds., the maximum range I recomend a deer size animal be shot. 6 feet is better.

At that distance I fail to see the point of using an atlatl, why not just use a spear.
No skill involved in this.
