They were trying to survive and could track a wounded animal way better than modern man. So Im sure they didnt wait for perfect shot oppurtunity or not take the shot if the animal was staying "out of range". They would take the shot no matter what especially if they were on edge of starvation.

Right, but Baldwin Spencer explicitly states that it took an exceptionally good man to kill "or disable" at more than 20 yards. Which implies that an atlatl dart is not typically disabling at that range, even if it hits the target.

In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion,[3] often for their own amusement.
This sense of the word "troll" and its associated verb trolling are associated with Internet discourse, but

Hubris. Hubris completely void of humility, common decency and general unspoken rules of engaging in a "meaningful " discourse. John23r, your threads, post, and replies are full of hubris bent on proving people wrong by setting them up with your opening statements. After which, you proceed into a nonsensical apology with facts, quotes, figures, charts, etc..
Primitive Archer members, my suggestion is to not reply to Jon's post or replies. We all have better things to do than to argue with the court jester.

You are right, Cip. He has nothing to add to the Forum but discord and strife. Even an anointing with mullet's holy buffalo whiz can't fix this.

So has he been banned yet?

Maybe I can pop the corn after all?
