Hatchet-throwing facilities and clubs are opening across North America. Grip your ‘hawk and get into the action.

Move over darts, hatchet throwing is on the rise. It might seem primitive, but new clubs allow hatchet hucking in a social setting.
The recipe is simple, and the trend is catching on. All you need are axes, wood targets, and a safe place to throw.
In 2016, three facilities opened in the U.S. — Bad Axe Throwing in Chicago, Urban Axes in Philadelphia, and Stumpy’s Hatchet House in New Jersey.
These locations build an axe-throwing community and offer lessons, competitions, and leagues. A simple wooden target is the goal. The pastime is gaining popularity, with some establishments burning through as many as 100 targets a week.
