Why Do Boomerangs Come Back?

Boomerangs have been used for over 20,000 years, with various types serving different purposes. While some are designed for hunting and do not return, others are crafted to come back to the thrower. The returning boomerangs rely on aerodynamics, involving a combination of rotating and forward speeds. The design, featuring airfoil-shaped wings, generates lift. Proper throwing technique, involving a specific angle and wrist flick, is crucial for the boomerang to follow a curved path and return accurately.
