What is Axe Throwing?
Axe throwing as an indoor competitive sport has taken off in Canada over the past decade. Similar to darts, axe throwing is an individual sport played with and against other members of a group. Individuals throw 1.5 lb. hatchets at wooden targets marked with a bullseye and score points based on where on the target they stick the axe.
Is it safe?
Safety is our number one priority! Each competitor throws in his/her own individual lane and competes side-by-side with another competitor. For each pair of throwing competitors, we have a throwing coach who is responsible for keeping score as well as ensuring safety protocols are adhered. Only the two active competitors throwing at that time are allowed within the throwing area, all other competitors are required to wait in the safety zone behind the lanes.
What are the minimum age requirements?
Bull & Bear Axe Throwing locations are recommended for ages 13+, as long as you can safety support a 2lb axe over your head with 2 hands. Under 18 must be accompanied by an adult over the age of 18, and have a signed waiver by a legal guardian.
Can I really throw an axe?
Yes You Can! It has nothing to do with size or strength. And once you land your first bullseye you’ll be hooked!
What if I don’t have a group, how can I participate?
We offer walk-in sessions at various times, for individuals, couples or very small groups.
Can we bring our own axe?
Yes you may bring your own axe. As long as it is in good condition and meets our standards for safety.
