Mountain man (or woman)
alert - it's axe throwing
in Yorkshire time! If
you've ever fancied
throwing a tomahawk into
a massive lump of wood in
that kind of Neanderthal
way this is the perfect
experience for you
available at two
locations around
Yorkshire. You will be
literally burying the
hatchet on this outdoor
experience as you're
shown how to handle and
throw a tomahawk into
tree stump targets. The
first thing most people
ask is 'is it dangerous?'
and the honest answer is
yes these are proper
metal and wood tomahawks
not plastic play things.
Which is why tomahawk
throwing is a controlled
activity taking place in
a controlled environment.
But are the axes you
throw heavy? Well yes
they are quite heavy but
they are weighted in such
a way that they are
easier to throw so you
don't need to be the size
of a Canadian lumberjack
to be able to lob one.
This Yorkshire operator
reckons kids as young as
12 years old can take
part - and targets can
always be moved and
adapted if necessary. So
how do you throw an axe?
As you'd imagine it's all
about stance and style.
An overhand throw is the
way to go. This Yorkshire
team will show you how to
throw your axe safely
starting with the
'handshake' grip on the
hatchet handle holding it
at the side of your body
before lifting it up and
behind your head to then
bend your elbow and
release forwards. What's
quite impressive is the
way the axe spins through
the air. With any luck
you'll be hearing the
distinct 'thud' sound as
the head sticks fast into
the grains of the wood.
Success! You're now a
fully fledged
axe-thrower. What then
follows is a session of
challenges and games
(burst the balloon the
double-header throw and
so on) before a final
competition to set the
unlucky lobbers from the
axe throwing aces. If
you're looking for an
outdoor activity with a
difference axe throwing
in Yorkshire has to be a
great choice. Tactical
fairly physical and
immensely satisfying when
you get a direct hit
tomahawking is a real
treat!

Axe throwing in
Leicestershire - learn to
throw different types of
axes with the possibility
of adding in a session of
air rifling too! Taking
place at this outdoor
activity centre near
Market Harborough you'll
receive full training on
how to get axes to
'stick' as they say into
the wood. Let's see if
you're going to be a
top-level axe thrower!
Your session starts with
the most important thing
- a safety briefing - so
you can all stay safe in
the activity areas. Once
outside it's time to
start training with the
Angel Axes. These axes
are like a cross between
a knife and an axe.
They're quite small with
a handle and a point like
a knife along with side
blades like an axe. And
as the form resembles
wings that's where the
name Angel Axe comes
from. They're ideal for
budding axe throwers to
build confidence as they
have more blade area to
hit the wood with. You'll
also be able to see with
the Angel Axes how much
or how many times your
axe rotates through the
air which helps when...

Try axe throwing in
Warwick at this
fun-filled outdoor
centre! Located in the
heart of the Warwickshire
countryside this shooting
ground is home to a whole
load of activities
including chucking axes
into huge chunks of wood
- and it's brilliant!
These days not many of us
regularly use axes for
things like chopping
firewood (we just turn
the thermostat up a bit!)
so handling an axe is
quite a thing. They are
naturally hefty tools so
on this axe throwing
session the Warwickshire
team of instructors will
start you off with
lighter training axes.
These all-metal hand-held
trainer axes have
multiple edges to them so
in theory they are easier
to get to stick in the
wood. Having said that
there's still quite a
knack to throwing these
light axes so your
instructor will show you
how to stand how to pick
and hold the axe and then
how to draw your arm up
and release the axe. At
the start of these axe
throwing sessions in
Warwick you'll be at
about 3 metres from the
targets. That allows y...

Go big on the blades with
this urban axe throwing
experience! In the hidden
depths of Hertfordshire
lies an outdoor activity
centre. Here you'll find
a corner dedicated to
throwing things at
targets. This all means
that you will be trying
your hand at double
headed axe Tomahawk and
knife throwing.Axe
throwing at this friendly
family-run centre between
Ware and Stevenage in
Hertfordshire really
caught our eye because of
the variety of weaponry
on offer. After all its
not every day you get to
hurl heavy axes and even
knives at wooden blocks
is it? Tomahawk axes are
fairly small and light
meaning they are a good
choice for most people.
It still takes a
considerably amount of
skill to be able to plant
one square on in the wood
with the satisfying thud
but one thing's for sure
it's great fun trying!
Then there's the Swedish
double headed throwing
axe. Originally used in
North America as forest
axes these are specially
modified versions that
are perfectly weighted
