Title: Museum of the costal bend with an atlatl demo/free shoot
Post by: skyarrow on October 04, 2012, 06:20:53 pm

I saw the museum was hosting a atlatl demo today so I talked my dad in taking half the day off to go ;), so I packed up a few bows my quiver and my knapping bucket and headed down there. The shoot was pretty sweet lots of darts to throw. I demonstrated and show them the self bow that John price made and traded me and also my r/d bamboo backed ipe David knight bow I made at the classic a few years back.
Those kids really liked  the stuff I brought I can say there atlatl shooting skills are sweet I couldn't even hit the target with the atlatl and these kids were shooting 4" groups :) I was impressed on the skill they have on the  flip side they had never shot a bow before so I instructed them on shooting a bow and they had a blast missing that large target with my bows and I could nail the center every time now pic time
