4.0 out of 5 stars
Big info, small package.,
This review is from: The Art Of Throwing Weapons (Exotic Weapons) (Paperback)
Being a self-tought thrower, I found alot of useful information as far as grip and stance. The directions for how to make a light spear has given me the idea to start spear throwing. This is a great book for beginners, but people who can stick 8 out of 10 times or better will find little use for it. If you stick less than 50% or want to try throwing spears, hatchets, tomahawks, shuriken or boomerangs for the first time, you will benefit from it. If you're a fast reader, you'll be done with this in 30 minutes. It's less than 100 pages.
