Learning how to use an atlatl and using it spear throw would be a good hobby, can anyone give me some pointers for groups and equipment.

What's with atlatls trending atm, is there some spear throwing shit going on on TikTok or something?

It's crazy, I organically got into the topic of spear throwing after reading Alaska by James Michener, just to learn that it's a trend online?? We really are in a simulation.

Nah, its just I find it really cool because its the oldest weapon in the world. (Apart from the spear itself) and it looks like great exercise as well as giving me a path for improving the skill itself.
