Axe throwing

Throw axes at wooden targets in a safe, coached lane. Axe throwing is done in marked lanes with a coach beside you. You learn a throwing technique, then aim for the target and score points.

Sessions last about an hour or two. It is easy to pick up, and groups often run a small tournament with a leaderboard.
