SHOES
*All participants are required to wear closed toe shoes.
AXES
Currently we do not allow outside axes for recreational throwing. League and tournament members must have personal axes approved by staff and only regulation axes will be permitted.
BLACK THROW LINE
Participants must have their back foot behind the black throw line in order for their throw to count. You can step forward past this line with your front foot.
RED SAFETY LINE
Participants may not cross the red safety line while axes are in play.
THROWING
2 participants may be throwing at the same time as we have barriers between each throwing lane. We allow up to 4 people per lane. Proper throwing techniques will be demonstrated upon your reservation, aggressive throwing may cause excessive damage to the targets, we ask that you adhere to the proper techniques in order to provide the best throwing experience possible for all participants.
RETRIEVING AXES
After the axe is thrown, participants are permitted to cross the throwing and safety lines to retrieve their axes. If your axe sticks, pull it up first, then out to unstick it. Do not stand directly in front of the axe when removing it.
WAIVER FORMS
All participants must sign a waiver before participating and participants under the age of 18 must have a parent or guardian sign a waiver for them. All spectators must sign a waiver regardless of throwing participation. Waivers are kept on file for up to one (1) year.
MINORS
Participants under the age of 18 must have a parent or guardian sign a waiver for them. Minor participants must have an adult 18+ present at all times. One throwing adult per every 3 minors is required. For party bookings with more than ten minor participants, there MUST be at least 3 adults (not drinking alcohol) to supervise their party.
AXES
Prior to each event or reservation, axes are inspected to ensure the best quality is provided for your axe throwing experience. All blades are maintained and sharpened enough to stick to the target.
TARGETS
Pine or Cotton wood boards are used, all targets are sprayed with water to reduce chipping or splitting of the board. This measure ensures the axes stick properly and provides the best target options. Regular maintenance and replacement of boards is standard in our facilty.
LANES
Fencing divides our lanes to ensure throwers and axes are contained. Only the 2 throwers and the axe throwing coach are allowed inside the lane at one time.
COACHES
Each event is assigned a trained axe throwing coach who will cover safety, demonstrate proper techniques of throwing and run games. Coaches monitor the overall safety of the event, they may also provide tips in order to make your throwing experience top notch!
