Axe Throwing, maybe relatively new to the UK but it's quickly gaining popularity. The reason for this is very simple, it is just so satisfying throwing axes. There is no better feeling than when the axe is thrown perfectly in to the board. It is very addictive and once you've got the correct technique, you will want to throw again and again. The activity sounds rather dangerous but with our safety measures in place, it is 100% safe. We begin with an introduction to axe throwing and the ways in which to throw. After a few practice throws, we take on the scoring targets, where it really gets fun. The targets are made out of rings, with each ring scoring higher points than the previous one. The dead centre ring (the bullseye) has the highest amount of points. The objective during the five rounds is to score the highest and to beat the opposition. We then play a team round. Please be aware that this experience is for those aged 16 years and upwards. The axes we use are not suitable for anyone under this age. To summarise the experience is very relaxed, unique and is a whole lot of fun. Even those of you who have tried axe throwing before, will be surprised how different our experience is. Outdoor axe throwing is very different to indoor. If you are looking to book a different date or time (including weekends) please message me. Over 100 5* reviews
