Stores probably don't like to sell boomerangs because they get returned too often.

The boomerang was created originally as a hunting weapon.

jblum315, Sounds like you are saying if you love your boomerang, let it go, if it comes back to you , it is yours, if it doesn't, it never was.

millwallmarty, I think you may find the boomerang that returns was mainly used for bird hunting. particularly flocks of birds which enabled a better hit rate..
