A Boomerang made from this wood of the arid zones will fly through the air gracefully like a bird and return to its owner. Boomerang throwing is not an easy art to master and an accomplished Boomerang enthusiast will have a number of different types of Boomerangs to practice with. Once you have mastered the art, it is beautiful to see how the Boomerang sails through the sky and turns around to come spinning back to the thrower. - Jedda Boomerangs Instructions for Throwing... 1. Choose an open grassy space. As beginners often make mistakes, the Boomerang could land heavily on one of its arms and the resulting shock wave could break it. Thick grass and soft ground are good places for a beginner to learn the art. 2. Hold the Boomerang in your right hand with the rounded surface uppermost and facing you. The arms of the "V" should be pointing forward in the direction of throw. 3. Face into the wind and with your arm extended hold the Boomerang so that it is at approximately 45 degrees to the horizontal. 4. Gently throw the Boomerang. The strength of the throw should depend on the wind conditions - strong wind, strong throw; gentle wind, gentle throw. 5. Once you practice and get results, try to catch the Boomerang as it returns to you spinning horizontally. Careful, as it may hurt if you miss it and it spins into your body!
