A boomerang is a tool, typically constructed as a flat airfoil that, when thrown, is designed to spin about an axis perpendicular to the direction of its flight. A returning boomerang is designed to return to the thrower. It is well known as a weapon used by Indigenous Australians for hunting. Boomerangs have been historically used for hunting, as well as a sport, and entertainment. They are commonly thought of as an Australian icon The correct launch orientation makes the boomerang's flight begin by flying into the wind, then having its flight take it through the "eye of the wind" and finally returning downwind using the wind's speed to help complete its flight back to the thrower. It is the spin that makes the boomerang return and the strength of throw and spin must be varied according to the speed of the wind – the stronger the wind, the less power is required to provide lift enough to make the return journey. You can take your time learning how to use this boomerang to decide if it works for you and your family.

Whole concept calling it a boomerang is to have it fly back. Well this one definately does not. I owned boomerang from traditional wood crafted version to nerf one in the past so I know how to toss it properly. When you toss this one it will fly straight and drop.So gave it a chance and toss it at different angles and finally able to get it semi to return but not all the way. It flew back to the side and dropped. So if you just want to toss and go fetch like a dog than this boomerang is for you.But if you really looking for one that does what a boomerang suppose to do then try a different one.Also because this boomerang is made of wood but has no tarnish coating on it you might get splinters and cut your fingers so I advise you becareful.Try to upload a video but the new review system only allow picture upload. Need to figure out how to upload a video

Meh
We have practiced and practiced. And we can get it to land about 15 ft from where it started. Not bad.y problem is with the durability or it, wood pieces are chipping off so easily (like from landing in the grass) I paid more because I wanted a wooden one over plastic but this is terrible, bought a dollar store plastic one that works great and doesn't chip.

Broke before I could perfect the return
This was fun to use and confuse my dog with but ultimately shattered in two after two days of use and maybe 10 throws. I expected it to be more durable for something that is relatively difficult to learn to use. Yeah, i know nothing is unbreakable but I thought I would have > 10 or so tries to figure out how to make this thing come back to me. I'll probably buy plastic boomerangs to replace this with.

Good Toy
Good toy for the kids. It is a little difficult to make come back to you, but from my experience that is the same with all boomerangs. It takes a very precise type of throw to have come back successfully. The material is also a little light and that means sometimes it will loose its spin before it makes it all the way back to you. The color and design is great for kids. For the price, it is a good toy that the kids will enjoy trying to use. I would recommend you learn how to throw one before giving it to kids to avoid injury.

My Son Loves It
My son purchase this birthday money because he has been wanting a hatchet for quite some time now. I advised him to purchase and clastic one that would be more durable but he just loved the way this one looked and went with it. To my surprise, this has held up for a little under 2 months now just fine and has not splintered or broke. This is light weight so it makes throwing easier.Highly recommended.

Attractive boomerang but very fragile.
Looks good but don't try using this unless you are nowhere near sidewalks, driveways or roads. Five minutes into throwing this boomerang, it landed on (not thrown at) our driveway and broke in two. Reached out to the seller and was told we shouldn't have used this near a driveway. I guess it's our fault for not living in or near a large open field. Seller offered to refund half the price but never did.

When my son asked me for this, I was convinced it'd be nothing other than a disappointment, I didn't think boomerangs worked other than in the movies, but I was pleasantly surprised. Not only does it work (with practice lol) but it's now one of my sons favorite toys! It's gonna be great as that perfect unique birthday present for future birthday boys!

My son loves it
I bought this for my 5 year old son for his birthday and he loves it so much. He, his cousins, and grandpa love to go outside and throw it around trying to get it to come back. It is a great quality and lots of fun.
