Have a Go at Axe Throwing

Discover the ancient skill of axe throwing with our exciting one-hour experience at Adventure Sports in Warwickshire.

Taking place on our purpose-built, covered axe throwing range, your session begins with an introduction to the equipment, essential safety procedures and the techniques needed to throw an axe accurately.

You'll start with lightweight, three-pointed training axes known as 'angels', learning how to control your throw and land the axe in a wooden target at a distance of three metres.

Once you've developed your technique and confidence, it's time to move on to the larger tomahawk axes and the more challenging six-metre targets. Getting one of these to stick is incredibly satisfying!

Throughout the session, your instructor will offer guidance and encouragement to help you improve your accuracy and consistency.

And then comes the competition!

You'll finish with a scored throwing contest to see who can keep their nerve, hit the target and claim the title of axe throwing champion.

Whether you're visiting with friends, family or colleagues, axe throwing offers a great combination of skill, challenge and friendly rivalry. No previous experience is necessary, and all equipment and instruction are included.
