I'm watching a few old seasons to catch up while waiting for the next episode of S13 to drop, and I'm realizing that a lot of issues come up when people can't use what's on the land.
I went down a proverbial rabbit hole a month or two ago on Comanche bow and arrow making, and became fascinated how they made them and hunted with them.
Seeing competitors miss shots and yeet one or more of their nine arrows into the woods and then just stand there, cursing themselves made me think: I wonder if they would have been better served by learning to make simple arrows out of local wood.
I mean, if you're shooting squirrels or small birds, you don't need a full aluminum shaft with a razor broadhead.
If you could just make a few more of them at night around a fire, and then go back to hunting the next day, it seems like it'd be better. Especially since so many of them already practice bushcraft skills that are actually probably more labor intensive than making a simple arrow for short range and small game.
