Everything you
actually want to know.

Axe throwing is a hands-on social sport where you throw a real axe or hatchet at a wooden bullseye target down an enclosed lane - like darts, but with axes. At Craft Axe Throwing it happens in person at a supervised venue: a coach teaches you grip, stance, and release, then you compete with your group. It's a physical, real-world activity - not a video game - and no experience is needed to stick the bullseye on day one.

Nope. Every group gets a coach to teach them the basics and how to throw safely. First-timers stick the bullseye on day one - that's the whole point.

Most venues are 13+ with a parent or guardian, and 18+ on your own. Some venues host kid-friendly birthdays for ages 10+. Check your local venue page for specifics.

Yes. Each lane has a coach watching, the throwing area is fully enclosed by mesh and wood, and we use a one-thrower-at-a-time rule. We've hosted hundreds of thousands of throws without an injury.

Closed-toe shoes (this is required) and clothes you can move in. That's it. Dress for date night if it's date night - no axe is going to fly into your dress.

Strongly recommended, especially Friday/Saturday nights and any weekend. We do take walk-ins when lanes are open, but we can't guarantee a lane without a reservation.
