I'm here as a hunter and bush-craft enthusiast who is fascinated in making and using the stone age weapon known as the atlatl. Used by the Cro Magnun, the Azteks, and the Australian tribes the atlatl has plenty of potential as a hunting tool. It can travel far, fly fast, and penetrates deep enough to bring down animals such as deer, black bear, and even wild boar. The state of Alabama so far is one of the very few place here in the US that allows deer hunting with a spear and the atlatl is no exception. I don't see why we shouldn't allow it because humans have been using these weapons for thousands of years. Plus we did surprisingly well with such a weapon. In fact deer can easily be taken with the right practice and all. Take for me I believe it would be an awesome idea.
