Chad, you got it all wong, man ! I'm from Brazil and at the south we have the "gaúcho" culture that uses "boleadeiras" for centurys. It came from many different indian tribes that used it for hunting and for war. To throw it, you never hold at the meadle of the strings like you did. You must hold the boleadeira by one of the stones and swing the other two over your head, get momentum and let it go. The precision will be much better and the span of the stones flying will be the double.
American indians grabbed from the middle of the string to increase the kinetic energy upon impact and that also increases range how ever grabbing it on the stones so that the string is loose in theory may be slightly more accurate and farther it's a trade off as you get less of a tangle meaning the bird gets away much easier due to the loss of the kinetic energy and the shock to the animal bolas can also be made out of wood to for water fowl such as ducks and geese either way both work it's just up to the user which way to throw it and how strong the user is there is no right or wrong way to use it
@@Kevin_Levrone505 Exactly! You tweak the design and technique depending on the game, or else use what's most familiar. What works best for cattle may not be ideal for duck, but the main thing is hitting the target.
@@kevingray4980 Keving: You have the right idea. The bola lasts longer if you throw it by the knot rather than one of the weights, and you have more control and a wider target if one of the lanyards is shorter than the other two. There are a lot of anachronisms in the vid, the main one is that this really does not work well in woods or brush, and is used mostly in open savanna, tundra, or grasslands.
Interesting. I remember that my grandfather made me some Bolas in leather sack with braided leather lashings and a thick triangular center handle ; easy for small hands to pinch and release. Good memories. Thanks for the great video.
He’s going to kill the enter dragon with that Yes, I know it’s *enter* dragon, that was intentional because I said so, and I’m too lazy to fix it lol ok by
arent they normally thrown by swinging them on one stone and then releasing them so they can spread up nicely and still rotate to tangle around the legs of your pray? Just asking...
Well, depends on what you want to do. If you throw them the way you described it, they spread up twice as far, as you said, but it's really hard to control them and your range is only about two thirds since you'd have to put more force into it for the one bola in your hand. There were some native tribes which used to throw their bolas that way, but this wasn't the case for every single animal they were hunting. . An easier technique is to throw the bolas like he did, but without letting them spin arround your head that often. One additional spin is okay (if you're advanced already) in order to gain more force, after that it's just getting harder to control them and therefore a lot harder to hit your target. Just hold the bolas at the end of the rope with your prefered hand and the weights with your other hand. Then give the weights a little push upwards, swing the bolas once arround your head and release them after one full spin. This technique is - as I already mentioned - a lot more accurate and your range is increased due to more weight at the end of the ropes, which benefits centrifugal force in terms of acceleration. You probably wouldn't use that technique when hunting big animals like horses or something like that though, since the spread is not enough to catch two legs at a time.
First time I see one of your videos and I'm already a subscriber! In Argentina, we call them boleadoras, both native peoples and gauchos used them for hunting, catching cattle, and as a weapon. From what I've seen, cordage here is usually longer, about 3 feet or more. That's probably the reason why you feel more comfortable with longer rope. Looking forward to seeing the second part!
Hi Rafa! You seem like you know a lot about bolas. I'm trying to learn bola throwing with 2 weights instead of 3, but I'm having a hard time finding guides or tutorials. Would you be able to help? :)
1st video of yours I've seen, now I'm a subscriber. Although not primitive, it crossed my mind that i could use lug nuts as they would be heavier. Good idea or not?
Beautiful video. Boleadeiras are still used here in Brazil by the Gauchos. However, they are bigger, with big stones, and longer strands of leather. The way to throw Boleadeiras is to grab one of the balls and then make a circle with them, finally throwing them. Two will hit the target and the third will make all the strands of leather turn around the prey's legs.
you will be happy to know that bolas are still used in tribal and mountain areas of Pakistan just to keep the old tradition alive!! yet another hit presentation 😇👍👍👍
I just want to say that each and every one of your videos that I have seen so far I have learned something different and interesting. You are a simple and intelligent person. Thank you for teaching us a little of everything you know. "ME ENCANTAS" 😍👍👍😄

i have seen it in movies that move like helicopter in air but in real life, i can not see the actual working and meaning of bolas in hunt , how does it act as a weapon and how does it work ,what must be the results??? thank you
Sabes amigo estoy muy enferma de mis riñones por lo mismo me siento deprimida pero encontré tu canal por mi hijo y no dejo de verlos porque se me olvida mi enfermedad y la depresión pasa cuando veo tus videos...
Te salieron bien las boleadoras si no mal recuerdo la usaban los vaqueros especiales llamados gauchos de aca en Argentina hace mucho tiempo/ The boleadoras were good for you, if I remember correctly, the special cowboys called gauchos used it here in Argentina a long time ago
En caballo tomaban gran velocidad las bolas y las lanzaban atrapando el animal/ On horseback, the balls took high speed and threw them catching the animal
I always found it very ingenious how much thought went into making ancient human life possible. Like I would never be able to turn grass into long strands and then think of what to use to make a bola. Or even something like an atle atle let alone a primitive bow. Like you really have to understand the concepts/world around you to understand how make those.
There's a third technique to make them, but it requires a bone or wood needle, getting yarn from some animal like an alpaca (or perhaps flax or similar fine fibers?), and needle-binding an enclosure over the stone, clay, or metal weights. Then you weave strings through that enclosure which anchors them very securely, and then twist those strings into the tether cords. Rest is just knots, or for finer quality - splicing. Only thing is the "woven" version may be a bit more time intensive than some other approaches, and such would be found from cultures already known for their textile work.
De pura casualidad estaba por ver el anterior video y llega la notificacion! Edit:No hay nada mejor para mi que ver en un video tuyo Chad la confeccion de una de las herramientas esenciales para el pueblo aborigen y nuestros gauchos en sudamerica,las boleadoras definitivamente son parte de todo eso..
Great video Chad! I've seen South American natives taking the bolas from one of the stones, not the center, and doing just one circle over the head, to throw it the right direction.
Do you actually live out your days in the wild or do you film your day in the wild and drive back home? Its very hard to see how you could live without any other interaction with humans
