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.

"Experimental archaeology" might be a good search term for finding resources on how to make and use an atlatl.

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.
