Axe-Throwing Discussion Thread

[Dece1t]

I was bored and decided, what the hell? It's almost 1 AM, lets make this a thing! Outside of Smogon, I competitively throw axes. At targets. I've travelled for tournaments and I've participated in tons of leagues. I also work as an axe-throwing coach as a little side-hustle. Has anyone else given it a try? I couldn't recommend it enough, its a great stress reliever, and it makes you look like a badass to the people you know lol

This thread is for sharing axe-throwing experiences, questions, tips, puns, you get it. Axe on :)

i recommend throwing straight up
if it doesnt end up straight up you'd have to run and catch it
also try doing a header, its cool and gives you lots of views on youtube

since we don't use normal axes to cut trees anymore have you considered upgrading axe-throwing tech alongside tree-felling tech?

why don't you throw chainsaws or CAT excavators nowadays?

Some people will mod traditional axes, but there have been some that emerged like from worldaxethrowingleague.org where they have their own lineup.

Man I went axe throwing a couple times, it's true, it is pretty relaxing.

My favorite was the first time i went, after a week of awful mandatory training in another city. There was literally no one in the place and the guys in charge were just bringing me beer and soda for free and taking ninja stars and shit out of the back room for me to try out. There was jazz playing the whole time, it was awesome.

Sorry, would be a little too close to home to share. But I'll bet a lot of these smaller places have good vibes.

I used to love axe throwing as a kid! I would practice on moving targets at my house. I wasn't very good, but it was fun.

Man, I miss my mom...
