NICE ! The test throw of the spear showed you had a good choice and it flew straight. You are ready for small game today, and, that's why I think the atlatl is the first survival weapon a person should make if in a true survival situation. Also, you can protect yourself from a hungry wolverine, all in a short time.
thanks for watching and iam glad you enjoyed! first time with a new mobile and i always talk very quite when i am out in the forest...just because i don´t want to miss something out there! i am from europe...live in germany close to the alps!
How straight does it fly over a certain distance without the fletchings? I used to throw Javelin and that was easier to keep straight because of its length and good aerodynamics. I make my atlatls with Hazel like you but I use goose feathers to fletch it. I do dream of making something purely with raw materials to catch a rabbit or other small game with.
It did fly pretty good because it was cut wet! Totally different story if it would have been seasoned. Actually I do use snowball for my darts and spruce. With fletching on a daily basis. So it really is just a quick survival weapon I made. One thing I tried and worked really good is just tying one feather to the end of the dart!

Awesome job. Thank you.
Grate you man grate movie
Good lesson on making an improvised atlatl using only a knife. Even a knife could be made from hitting a rock with a rock. Thanks.
Hiting stone against stone is what I love to do most!;-)
Not bad for a bush craft atlatl and dart
That is a nice knife. What kind is it?
Sade Storm hey, this is the knife i made myself. So its my kind!;-)
living skills really like the style and looks very well crafted. Great job!

How long are the darts?
this one wasn´t meassured but around 2 meters
and wood did you use?
@@LaurensThlr I know the sound wasn't good but the dart is from hazelwood and the thrower from willow!
thanks!
Great video! I’ve made three style atlatls. I need a lot of practice with them though. I’m better with a bow and arrow.
I made mine with a fishing rod
Deautchland?
tommy wilts yeah...der süden Deutschlands!;-
Where is this?
Runs with a Fox hey! This is in the south of germany. Not far from the alps!
