Buy Six Atlatl Darts and Get One Free Through January 25, 2013! New Atlatl Kits Offered.

Beat the winter blahs by improving your atlatl sets! Through January 25th, anyone ordering a set of six Ash atlatl darts will receive a complimentary seventh dart. Orders should be made through our online catalog.

This offer applies only to orders of five foot Ash darts, six foot Ash darts and seven foot Ash darts. It does not apply to our specialty hunting darts.

Another great way to spend those long January days is to build your own atlatl kits. Check out our additions of the Wyalusing, Catatonk Hunter and Catatonk kits to our atlatl kit inventories. They will be in the online catalog by Monday, January 14. Thunderbird Atlatl’s kits have been featured in Make Magazine. They have been used by hundreds of adults and youths both individually and in group workshops.

We are working on our 2013 schedule and will be posting it shortly in our calendar. If you haven’t already and are a Facebook user, please connect to us on Facebook. You can search for us under Thunderbird Atlatl.

Order a set of six darts today! For every six atlatl darts ordered (five, six or seven foot darts), we will include one complimentary dart of the same size through January 25, 2013. Orders must be made through our online catalog.

Pictured below are some of Thunderbird Atlatls’ darts.

Happy New Year! Looking Forward to New Atlatl Adventures!

Happy New Year everyone! We are looking forward to new atlatl adventures and meeting more of you in 2013! We enjoy the opportunities Thunderbird Atlatl gives us to travel and meet new people.

In the next coming weeks, we will be putting together a new paper catalog and working on starting a monthly email newsletter and updates through an email program. If we have you on our email list, you will receive an invitation to subscribe to the newsletter. If you aren’t interested, just let us know and we can remove you from the list.

We often find people confusing us with William Robert Perkins of Montana who calls himself “Atlatl Bob”. Thunderbird Atlatl’s atlatl maker is Robert Spalding Berg aka Bob Berg and not to be confused with “Atlatl Bob”. It’s an easy mistake to make but feel we have to make the distinction every once in awhile.

Another project we hope to complete this month is a series of videos on You Tube showing how to put our kits together. We are looking forward to having a more active internet presence. atlatlfevercover

Time to Order Your Atlatl Set For Holiday Giving! Gift Certificates Available!

The Thunderbird Atlatl shop is busy keeping up with inventory and orders. Christmas orders have already started coming in and we are busy getting out orders while maintaining good inventory.

It’s better to order earlier than later to help both the shipping department and our atlatl maker! Give us a call if you are looking for something specific and we’ll see if we can help you.

Besides holiday shopping, we are also told that we should let everyone know that an atlatl and dart set is perfect for end of the world/doomsday predictions set for December 21 by the Mayan Calendar. Regardless of what happens December 21, you will be ready for something-hopefully the new year – 2013!

We will be adding gift certificates to our catalog later today. We can send gift certificates via email or snailmail – your choice.
