-The '''Boomerang''' is an iconic item of [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], appearing in almost every title in some shape or form. It works by returning to [[Link]] after he has thrown it every time, making it very versatile. It can be used in many different ways, like to pick up items, or stun and even defeat enemies, or to hit distant switches, and much more.

 [[File:Boomerang-Sprite.png|left]]In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', the Boomerang can be found in [[Hyrule Castle (A Link to the Past)|Hyrule Castle]]. It does the same thing it did in ''The Legend of Zelda'': paralyze enemies and bring items from afar. It also has an upgrade, a red version, which can make the rounds launched by pressing the D-Pad. In the [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (GBA)|GBA version]], the Boomerang can do things that it previously did not like mowing the lawn when released, etc.

 In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', the Boomerang appears as the final item in the [[Link's Awakening Trading Sequence|Trading Sequence]].

-With the Boomerang, Link can easily defeat several enemies that previously were much more difficult, such as [[Shadow Nightmares#DethI|DethI]], the final form of [[Shadow Nightmares|The Shadow Nightmares]], who can be killed with one shot from the Boomerang.

 In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'', Link receives the Boomerang in the first temple, the [[Temple of Fire]]. Instead of just launching the Boomerang as in previous ''Zelda'' titles, Link must draw a line on the screen of the [[Nintendo DS]]. The Boomerang will follow the same route of the line. If a torch is out and is next to a lighted torch, Link can route the torch lit and then extinguished the torch and it will cause the Boomerang catch fire and ignite the torch. This is one of several features that Boomerang can do in this game.
 ===Spirit Tracks===
-In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'', Link wins the Boomerang in the second temple, [[Snow Temple]]. To control the Boomerang, he can do the same thing as in ''Phantom Hourglass''; draw a line on the bottom screen of the Nintendo DS, and it will follow the same route. The Boomerang in ''Spirit Tracks'' does different things, and one of them is the ability to create ice bridges in the water when it is passed on the torch and passed into water, creating ice bridges, which Link may walk across.

+Often there are enemies that cannot be hit from the front, so Link must draw a path with the boomerang and hit the enemy on its backside in order to stun it. While some enemies can be defeated with one hit of the boomerang, many others will only be stunned. This will, however, give Link an opportunity to finish them off with his sword. The boomerang is also capable of equipping fire and ice along its way. If Link targets a lit torch and then an enemy, the boomerang will carry the fire and can burn the enemy that Link targets. Link can use the boomerang on ice torches and then send it over water, which will cause the water to freeze and ice platforms to appear that Link can walk over.
+The boomerang is very commonly used to hit switches or other objects in order to solve puzzles. At times Link might need to hit several objects consecutively in a certain order to solve a puzzle and open a closed door, or to access a treasure chest. Other times Link must hit a distant object in order to create a bridge, or to lower or raise a platform to allow him to access new areas.

 ===A Link Between Worlds===
-In ''[[A Link Between Worlds]]'', the Boomerang is a rentable, and later purchasable item that can be found at any point in [[Ravio's Shop]] after completing the [[Eastern Palace (A Link Between Worlds)|Eastern Palace]]. It can be used to stun enemies, cut grass, grab items, and flip switches, similarly to most other ''Zelda'' games. After purchasing it for 800 Rupees, it can be upgraded by [[Mother Maiamai]] by collecting ten baby [[Maiamai]]. This turns it into the [[Nice Boomerang]], which functions the same, but with increased speed, and a triple throw.

+===Tri Force Heroes===
+The Boomerang appears as an available item in many stages, beginning with the first section of the [[Volcano]], the [[Blazing Trail]]. Like in past games, it can be used to stun or defeat enemies, hit switches, and retrieve distant items, including other Links. The boomerang can also be used to transfer fire between torches, similarly to its use in ''Phantom Hourglass'' and ''Spirit Tracks''. It can be upgraded by wearing the [[Boomeranger]] costume, which grants it increased range, size, and damage output, as well as the ability to carry two items at once.
 ===Breath of the Wild===
-The Boomerang makes a return in ''[[Breath of the Wild]]'', but this time in many forms, including the standard Boomerang, [[Giant Boomerang]], [[Lizal Boomerang]], and more. This weapon can be used as a sword, through means of melee attacks, but can also be thrown like a traditional boomerang. If it hits a solid object, it will lose all momentum and drop to the ground. In order to retrieve a boomerang after it has been thrown, the player must hit the A button as it nears Link. In the case of this not happening, it will keep going for a small distance and drop to the ground, where it can be picked up.
