Thunderbird Atlatl Elves Ready for Holiday Orders!

Leave a comment

It is a busy time of year at the Thunderbird Atlatl shop. We are ready for your atlatl and dart orders. Gift certificates are also available.
In the next couple of weeks, we cannot handle custom orders.

Shop cat, Molly, is ready to help with gift certificates. Molly & our dog, Tina, worked hard on atlatl orders. Tina is no longer with us but Molly carries on the work.

The majority of our orders are shipped Ground Advantage via the post office. Due to holiday shipping price increases and the oversize charge, there is additional shipping for other services. While not guaranteed, the post office says orders going out by December 17 should arrive by Christmas. Here are the holiday mailing deadlines for USPS/UPS/Fed Ex:
Note that these deadlines are guidelines; weather, inventory issues, congestion may delay arrival of packages.
Here are some of the shipping deadlines for those looking to receive packages by Dec. 24.
2025 holiday gifts shipping deadline:
USPS: Ground and First-Class by Dec. 17, Priority Mail by Dec. 18, Priority Mail Express by Dec. 20. Shipping might take longer for Alaska and Hawaii addresses. UPS: 3-Day Select by Dec. 19, 2nd Day by Dec. 22, Next Day by Dec. 23.
FedEx: Ground and Home Delivery shipments by Dec. 17, 4-day by Dec. 18, 3-day by Dec. 19, 2-day by Dec. 22, 1-day by Dec. 23; Overnight or Express shipping deadline is Dec. 23, Same-Day still possible on Dec. 24, depending on zip code.

Valentina (Tina) is no longer with us but she was always ready to help out. We know she is with us in spirit. She and Molly made a great team. Molly is working hard to carry on the for both of them.
Molly will try to train her fellow felines (Nadia, Opal and Chester) to help out this season. She says our new canine helper, Reggie, does not have Tina’s skills. Molly is not expecting much help from Reggie this season.

Atlatls, Darts Great Gift Idea! Order Early!

Leave a comment

The Thunderbird Atlatl shop is ready for the annual Christmas and Holiday gift cycle. Our atlatl elves are busy working on inventory. Looking at the December calendar, we think December 18 is probably the last day we can guarantee priority mail service to your location for Christmas. We can also look into Express mail shipping and other options to get a better guarantee after that date.

We ship most of our items priority mail through the US post office but by the third week of December, all the shipping services are getting bogged down and we notice their normal shipping guarantees are not as accurate as they usually are. We will do our best to get your orders out as quickly as possible.

If you have a special order, please call before December 10 and we will see what we can do to meet that. We also offer gift certificates. Give us a call at 1-800-836-4520 if you have any questions. Thank you for looking at our site.
