Thunderbird Atlatl Catalog (PDF – 17mb)
Welcome to the World of Atlatls!
Welcome to the Thunderbird Atlatl Catalog! We hope it answers some of your atlatl questions and gives you a good
look at the different types of atlatls and dart systems we have available!
Thunderbird Atlatl is a family owned and operated business located in Candor, New York, about 20 miles south of Ithaca, New York. Our business officially began in 1994 although founder and atlatl designer Bob Berg has been involved in
designing atlatls and darts since the late 1980s. Every member of the family has had their part in making Thunderbird Atlatl a success.
Bob and Cheryll Berg, owners of Thunderbird Atlatl, invite you to visit our shop and display area if you are ever in the
Finger Lakes area of New York State. Please call ahead to make sure the shop is open as we might be at a show. We are
looking forward to meeting you! Our toll-free number is: 1-800-836-4520.
You can also reach us by email at contact@thunderbirdatlatl.com
We are always coming up with new ideas and products. We offer a variety of darts made from wood and cane. Our darts
are tested and perfected for all uses from target shooting to hunting and fishing. Our seven-foot tapered darts are extremely popular and have been developed from years of experimentation in our shop. Our atlatl harpoon is another popular
product for those interested in fishing. Our harpoons have been tested in the ocean waters in Florida, Maine and Connecticut with excellent results. We have had our
equipment tried successfully by atlatl enthusiasts on the West Coast too.
History of
America
the
Atlatl
in
If a twelve inch ruler was used to represent a time line and each inch of it equaled a
thousand years of American history and prehistory, the atlatl would probably appear at
the first or second inch and begin to disappear
around eleven inches when the bow and arrow
came into general use in America. Atlatls were
never totally abandoned by the Inuit of the
Arctic and the people of the Amazon region.
Used for thousands of years to hunt game by
Native Americans and cultures throughout the
world, the atlatl allowed the hunter to cast darts at speeds and with accuracy not possible with hand held spears.
The atlatl was gradually replaced by the bow and arrow starting about a thousand years ago but was still in use by the
Aztecs at the time of the Conquistadors. Early 20th century photos show the Inuit people still using them for harpooning.
The word "atlatl" comes from the Nahuatl language which was used by the Aztecs. Other words for the device include
"woomera" from the Australian continent, "estolica" in Spanish, "propulseur" in French, and "speerschleuder" in German. Atlatls
have been found on every continent except for Antarctica. Atlatls are
now gaining popularity for recreation and hunting. The atlatl is an instrument that has recently been pulled out of the box of ancient tools
and has begun a new evolution. Flintknapping has taken
a similar turn too. In flintknapping, a modern art form Top Photo:

Canandaigua Atlatl
The Canandaigua is an atlatl design created for those looking for a paddle grip atlatl. The Canandaigua uses a paddle grip rather than a hammer grip. In a paddle grip, the wrist is rotated so the
palm or the hand faces up in the launching position and faces down to the ground after follow
through. This method of grip gives the shooter about three inches more leverage. We decided to design the Canandaigua for our customers who prefer a paddle grip over other grips. Some say the
paddle grip atlatl is less traumatic for people with tendonitis and problems in the elbow.

Kanakadea Atlatl
The Kanakadea has been developed to fill a market gap and the need
for an easy to use atlatl. No fingers are required to control the dart in
this new style of atlatl which was inspired by the atlatls made by Ray
Strischek and the late Terry Keefer. They both okayed the use of this
design element when asked if we could use it for a new atlatl design. It
was futher inspired by the handle of the lumber scale that we use to
measure the amount of wood we’re purchasing. These two design elements combined with the finest hardwood lumber and typical high
quality Thunderbird craftsmanship to produce a fine target atlatl. We
have two styles of Kanakadeas to choose from-one with a wedge insert
and one with a smooth one piece handle. We also produce shorter handled versions for the 12 and under set. They are priced the same as the
larger models as the workmanship is the same.

Catatonk Hunter Atlatl
The Catatonk Hunter Atlatl
is an ergonomically engineered atlatl designed
around the particular needs of the atlatl hunter, even though its use is certainly not limited to
atlatl hunters. After years of experience using atlatls for hunting, we set about the task of designing an atlatl that is both very functional and at the same time very beautiful. We have
paid close attention to dart placement relative to the handgrip so that the atlatlist would have
maximum power without losing control We have chosen the hammer grip design over the
paddle grip basically because the human hand transfers power more effectively with the hammer grip. (Try to pound a nail with a paddle grip hammer.)
We have the dart up and away from the atlatl shaft to keep the fletching from conflicting with
the shaft. This allows the dart to be placed on the atlatl in exactly the right rotation, which is
important for consistent shots. The forward risers allow the atlatlist to hold the loaded dart
with the non-dominant hand while waiting for game. Holding the dart in place with the dominant hand over long periods of time caused the hand to “freeze” causing a poor release. The
rear riser is designed with a loading channel to make it easier to get another dart loaded
quickly and efficiently in spite of movement or excitement. We make this particular atlatl either out of one piece of wood or use two pieces of wood expertly joined together. We adjusted the flex of the atlatl shaft to be moderate so that the atlatlist doesn’t lose any control without taking away the smoothness of the shot. Each atlatl is tested as it’s being built so that the
head of the atlatl remains aligned with the shaft during flexing. Atlatls that tend to favor one
side or the other when shot are difficult to control. The Catatonk Hunter will handle the larger seven foot diameter darts that are the best for penetration of big game. One needs only to
handle a Catatonk Hunter to appreciate the care and craftsmanship used in constructing
them. The design is a joy to behold and the balance is superb.

Catatonk Atlatl
The Catatonk Atlatl was designed in response to the demand for a quality flexible atlatl at
a reasonable price. Equal in many ways to the pricier Catatonk Hunter, this atlatl has
been designed to be produced with less labor, while keeping up the high standards for
form and fit of the more costly atlatls in our line.

Hiawatha Atlatl (with loops)
The Hiawatha, a close cousin of the Nanticoke, has a classic primitive design. It is well made and
very durable. More natural in shape than the Nanticoke, the split shafts are hand scraped and well
sanded following the natural flow of the grain. These are available in Hickory, Ash or Osage Orange
with a bone or antler tine, natural fiber or leather finger loops, rubbed oil finish and natural fiber lacing which holds the antler tine in place and provides added grip at the handle. Some of our pieces are
slightly charred and oiled, which would have been a surface treatment well within the grasp of hunter
gatherers.

The Painted Hiawatha takes the beauty of the Hiawatha a step further. This model has a primitive feather painted design on the surface.
Each one is different and unique, but esthetically pleasing. The painting does not represent any particular culture but is done using various feathers to achieve the primitive designs, as they might have been done in ancient times.

Nanticoke Atlatl (laced)
The Nanticoke Atlatl was inspired by the classic Southwestern atlatl with a double leather looped keeper
strap. It has a knuckled handgrip for better control and a tropical hardwood button spur inserted and cemented into the head of the atlatl. We use certain kinds of tropical hardwoods such as Lignum Vitae and Argentine
Ebony that are extremely hard. They all contain a waxy resin that acts as a lubricant against the knock dimple.
All these features are assembled on a shaft of fine hardwood specially chosen for grain and strength. The entire length of the shaft is laced with artificial sinew for even more strength, its sound reducing characteristics,
and added esthetic appeal. The Nanticoke is an unbeatable combination of speed, stability and durability.
This moderately priced, yet attractively designed atlatl is a joy to shoot. Used for both target shooting and
hunting, this outstanding atlatl has scored high in the ISAC contests over the last few years. A best seller, there
are probably more Nanticokes carried in the forests and fields of North America than any other atlatl made.
Economical, because of its simple design, this atlatl nonetheless meets the standards of craftsmanship of our
premium atlatls, making it a good value.

Osceola Atlatl
The Osceola is a bamboo, horn and wood composite atlatl inspired by the construction of the Asian horn bow.
Using techniques gleaned from master bowyer Jaap Koppedrayer, Bob Berg has created an atlatl that uses technology thousands of years old to make an atlatl that uses one of the fastest spring release systems known to
man. Not only does this composite work well but it also looks great. The wooden part of the handle is made from
exotic hardwood or curly domestic wood. The Osceola comes with an atlatl weight attached. The atlatl weight is
made from colorful stone which is polished using the same methods jewelers use to polish precious and semiprecious stones.

Otsiningo Atlatl
The Otsiningo is an atlatl designed for big game hunting where seven-foot long darts are used. This atlatl features
three rests, including a finger rest, tine rest, and forearm rest to carry extra dart length without deflection. It has a
bone tine, knuckled grip handle, and atlatl weight which is included. This atlatl is available in Hickory, Walnut,
Osage Orange. This atlatl is much like the Wyalusing, but it is designed to carry the weight of long hunting darts
with a heavy point, which would normally be flexed by their own weight. Since the dart remains straighter it is easier to aim it.

Tioga Atlatl
Balance and form are the best features of the Tioga. The formed grip and integrated index finger dart rest work well together to
achieve accuracy and consistency. The cemented bone button tine is reinforced with simulated sinew lacing. This is a good atlatl
for hunting as well as target shooting, not to mention warfare. Although not yet field tested for the purpose, we believe this atlatl
could be shot in outer space. We would recommend larger fletching on your darts when using the Tioga atlatl in the thin Martian
atmosphere. The Tioga’s interestingly sculptured design allows the easy loading of darts while running or walking which can be
important during hunting and film shoots. This weapon would make a good sidearm for those opposed to guns, but who need
protection from aliens, dragons or home invaders.

Fishing & Hunting with the Atlatl
Thunderbird Atlatl is proud of the hunting and fishing equipment we produce. Bob Berg has been hunting and fishing with the atlatl for more than 20 years. Our equipment is developed from Bob’s own field experiences. Our hunting darts have proven themselves both through Bob’s own use and those of our customers. Our atlatls
and hunting darts have taken many wild boar, deer, elk, bear, and other animals. A growing number of states are
allowing atlatl hunting and fishing.
Harpoon fishing with the atlatl has also proven to be a fascinating experience. Bob has fished with atlatls
and harpoons in Maine, Kentucky, New York, Connecticut and Florida. Bob’s close friend and fishing partner, the
late Wendell Adams, helped him develop his atlatl harpoon system. We have set up a metal lathe at the shop to help
in the manufacture of harpoons. Bob has been able to land fish weighing forty pounds with a basic setup using a
Muzzy Point. He and others have fished with atlatls from several different kinds of boats including several ocean
going fishing boats.
An interesting kind of atlatl fishing boat they have used successfully is a rig made from two canoes placed side by
side creating a pontoon. They attach 2 foot by 4 foot platforms that extend out over the bow and stern with lights
attached. The platforms are screwed to the cross members that hold the canoes together. Batteries and or generators are placed together to use as ballast and to serve to operate the lights. Fishing is usually at night with this rig.
It’s often possible to rent two canoes when you are a long distance
from your home so you don’t need to bring a boat trailer. Another
advantage of this system is you can put up to six people into the canoes, but it works best with four. If you are nterested in learning
more about atlatl fishing, give us a call at 800-836-4520 or email
Bob at Bob@thunderbirdatlatl.com
Atlatlists are once again using the atlatl for hunting and
fishing. Many of Thunderbird Atlatl’s customers have used
our equipment to hunt all types of animals including wild
boar as shown below. Using an atlatl with a harpoon is a
great way to go fishing. Bob Berg of Thunderbird Atlatl
(right photo) proves how well a harpoon works with an
atlatl.
This is the end of the harpoon dart Thunderbird Atlatl uses on its equipment. See page 15

Wappasening
The Wappasening is a well-designed atlatl with a knuckled handle for good grip that is integrated with a forward dart
rest. The Wappasening features a bone button tine cemented into the sinew-reinforced head. This is a good choice for
a weighted atlatl. (Check out our assortment for atlatl weights). This atlatl is available in a variety of high quality woods,
both exotic and domestic hardwoods. Check our list of hardwoods elsewhere in this catalog. It is finished with rubbed
oil. This atlatl is a good choice for the target shooter. The Wappasening is a hybrid, combining elements of design
from both the Wyalusing and the Nanticoke. It is built for maximum speed, without giving up any shooting stability.
From its long sleek riser to the graceful tip, the Wappasening is an absolute top performer. The Wappasening is easy
to use, quiet extremely stable, and a pure joy to shoot. This is an excellent atlatl for the small handed individual.

The Wyalusing Atlatl is designed for ease of use, accuracy and consistency, featuring a bone or antler tine, clean sculptured
lines, and a dart cradle at both ends of the weapon. It is available in various North and South American hardwoods and finished
in rubbed oil. The tine is artfully tied to the head with simulated sinew. This atlatl allows the atlatlist to hold the dart on the cradle the same way each and every shot. The same motions can then be repeated for increased accuracy. This design is especially
well adapted to the hunter, since it can be held loaded and ready even for hours, if necessary, without causing fatigue or cramping
of the hands. This is a good all around atlatl for the beginner as well as the advanced hunter or target shooter. This sleek, ergonomically designed atlatl hides speed and balance in its uniquely beautiful design. One only has to cast a dart to appreciate its
true power and stability. Made and distributed since 1993 this reliable atlatl has been a best seller among premium atlatls. The
Wyalusing is made from the finest hardwood chosen for grain, texture, and strength. Blanks are rough sawn and stored in a dry
atmosphere until stresses in the wood have released themselves. From seasoned blanks, the finished atlatls are handcrafted to
meet stringent specifications. Each atlatl is then carefully sanded and finished with a hand rubbed tung oil finish. The spurs are
expertly carved and polished from several different materials including but not limited to bone, antler, or horn. Whatever the
material, it is always of the highest quality. No two are ever the same, giving each atlatl its own personality. A veteran hunter, the
Wyalusing Atlatl, using our 7 foot ash hunting shafts with Ace broadheads, has been used to take deer, elk, buffalo, bear, wild
boar and fish.

Bob Berg straightens a dart
shaft. From time to time,
wooden darts can become
crooked because they are
made from natural materials. Sometimes they can be
just straightened by hand.
You can also use heat to
straighten darts. Holding
the dart shaft near a heat
source such as a fire or
using a torch, you can heat
the wood fibers and stretch
them. Once the wood is
pliable, you can straighten
it easier.

Shipping & Handling (see below).
New York State residents, please add sales tax of 8 percent. Questions? Call us at 1-800-836-4520 or email us at contact@thunderbirdatlatl.com Please
make checks or money orders payable to Thunderbird Atlatl, PO Box 764, 90 Main Street, Candor, NY 13743. Shipping & Handling Information:
Shipping & handling for anything that has darts, dart shafts or dart kits is usually $20 per order because of the length of the darts and the need for them to
be protected by the shipping container. Mailing 7 foot darts can sometimes cost over that amount because of balloon charges. If you are ordering just an
atlatl, t-shirt or other small item, shipping will vary between $6 to $10. We ship most items through the United States Post Office via priority mail. If you
prefer an alternative shipping method, let us know and we will work out the shipping price with you.
