extracted text (Extract Text): Ancient Mayan hunters used a "hulche," or throwing stick, instead of a bow to shoot their arrows great distances with deadly accuracy, and the weapon is being revived in modern sport on the Pacific coast. Archaeologists found specimens of the throwing sticks in Yucatan. These were brought back and have served as models for sticks being used by archers today.
