THIS WAS AWESOME TO WATCH! As someone who fell in love with this sport only a month ago, I've already bought a pair of Butchers for myself & I'm making my own regulation target for backyard throwing. ❤ Best of all? In the handful of times, I've gone down to the local ax throwing bar: I've made new friends & found out about the local league that's starting up this coming Wednesday! Frankly, there's something really special playing a lesser-known/newer sport. Anyone could be the next great competitor! There aren't well established training circuts & industries dedicated to serving the most affluent athletes + with this being a co-ed sport, it makes the whole thing feel REALLY SOCIAL! ❤❤❤ This year's pro-am competition was a real blast to watch. I didn't expect to actually watch the whole thing, but each event was so close & interesting to watch that I kept saying "Ok I'll just watch one more event" every few minutes until I ran out of events to watch! Good luck & have fun y'all! Hope to see ya at a tournament one day!
When everyone was running to congratulate the winner at the end, I saw someone from the same league location my friend participates in! Not going to say the venue name that was on the t-shirt. Don't want to dox my area ;).
My friend has that axe for his leagues! I have never thrown an axe before, but I have to now since my friend wants me to go axe throwing with him and I have zero experience compared to his 3 full seasons and part of a 4th season experience.
I went axe throwing today for the very first time ever. I'm absolutely hooked. Time to research and start this New journey. Tips and tricks and best practices are greatly appreciated. Even with the house axes I was hitting bullseyes. I might have found something I'm good at lol
