throwing spear
Projectile pole weapon
A throwing spear is a spear designed to be hurled at prey or enemies rather than thrust while held.
Lighter and often shorter than thrusting spears, throwing spears include javelins and similar weapons optimized for aerodynamic flight: The hunter readied his throwing spear as the deer emerged from the brush.
