Really. You should stick to writing and quit trying to pretend you know
science. No wait! You don't even know how to spell atlatl! Don't even
have the intelligence to copy it out of my post! Sheesh! You have a bad
case of the Glaziers!
Lacross stick too long for one thing and it does not matter if the
atlatl is thrown with the object (grenade) or remains in the hand
(spear)the whole principle is an arm extension increasing the tangential
velocity due to a larger radius combined with the angular velocity.
You are getting as bad as "professor" Wormley. He can't spell for shit
either, but then he doesn't claim to be a "wordsmith".
