Nubbins Colt #7802 26 Posted April 10, 2019 HA! There is an axe throwing business somewhere near where I live. I've been tempted to check it out but I never claimed to be an athlete and I sure don't want my axe coming back to me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DocWard 3,391 Posted April 10, 2019 My youngest daughter doesn't care for firearms. She's not anti, but it isn't her thing. She does like edged weapons. As in, when she saw my fairbairn-sykes, she claimed it in my will. She teaches axe throwing part time at an axe throwing place. She's pretty good at it, apparently.

Pat Riot, SASS #13748 12,375 Posted April 11, 2019 I used to throw knives, hatchets, axes. Mixing edged weapons and alcohol ...utter stupidity and naïveté. Imagine a news clip like that showing people target shooting at a bar...or something else just as dangerous and life altering, cruising for a mate! Now that’s really scary.

Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 1,098 Posted April 11, 2019 We forged out our own throwing hatchets. Made 'em with round eyes. Dear old Dad worked for the Buckeye Pipeline and they broke shovel handles literally by the bushel basket. He'd scarf up the broken shovel handles and we forged the eyes so they would just drive fit onto the swell-head end of a standard shovel handle. We set up an old porch post in the side yard -- poplar it was, you can tell, green wood -- and we splintered that sad old thing plumb to pieces. It was nothing, literally nothing, to hit a playing card every throw. We'd hang a plantain leaf and we'd chew it to pieces, we'd hang a shred of the chewed up leaf and throw at that. Once you get your distance -- the hatchet turns over once -- it's easily done. Throwing an ax, bringing it overhead with both arms ... no thank you, I'll stick with my throwing hawk!
