 Here's a house rule I designed for all weapons with ammo. I'm going to talk about "arrows" but it applies to throwing daggers, javelines, thrown axes, crossbow bolts etc too.
-===== The rule: =====
+===== The rule =====
-  * You only have to pay arrows when it's established that an arrow must have been released.
+==== Ammo version (arrows, sling stones, bolts) ====
+  * You only have to pay arrows when it's established that an arrow must have been released:
     * When their HP is reduced to zero by your attack
-    * When the arrow is caught
+      * When the arrow is caught
-      * For example, when someone catches your arrow (monks can do this)
+  * For example, when someone catches your arrow (monks can do this)
-  * If you do pay extra arrows beyond that, that's how many you can recover after the fight.
+ * If you do pay extra arrows beyond that, that's how many you can recover after the fight.
     * Not necessarily the same arrows, but the same amount
     * As an example of "extra" arrow usage, you might shoot an arrow that gets stuck in the owlbear's thick hide.
+==== Thrown version (hand axes, javelins, daggers, darts) ====
+  * You only have to release your weapon when it's established that the weapon must hane been released
+    * When their HP is reduced to zero by your attack
+      * When the weapon is caught
+      * For example, when someone catches your weapon (monks can do this)
+  * Then if you can get to your weapon (presumably by the body), you can recover it
+  * You can't throw more weapons than you have, unlike arrows where you can spam away.
