Axes and hatchets have been around for thousands of years and served many different purposes.
To visualize these uses the first two things that come to mind are old-time Nordic Gods with battle axes and the more modern plaid-clad lumberjacks taking down huge trees for a more familiar visual. Either way, you look at it there are many different types of axes as there are historical uses. Courageous (adjective): brave, heroic, bold, daring, adventurous
It’s time to unlock your inner warrior - and have an unforgettable time doing it.
Before modern weaponry, real heroes carried axes. These were wood and stone works of art, often fashioned with their own hands, and the craftsmen knew how to use them. From Nordic Gods to Native American warriors, the vivid history of axe-throwing has always been bold and courageous. Even the mention of throwing an axe seems to incite a heroic mental picture of some muscular, historic figure. The common theme? They were pretty much all axe whoopers.
Fast forward a few thousand years, and the same fearless blood that flowed through the veins of battle axe-wielding titans still flows in those fearless men and women who dare to step foot on the battlefield, or the throwing floor. Even young champions can find the courage and strength to hit the target. At Axe Whooping, we simply give you the training, the tools, and the safety gear to accomplish it.
Best in the Business
One of the world’s top-ranking masters of axe throwing, Denver native Tobias Macera is truly the best in the business.

With the largest throwing room in the state of Colorado, Axe Whooping offers more lanes, more room to throw, and more fun. You may even catch a glimpse of a master or two getting in a little practice.
Indoor Axe Throwing
While axes have been around for millennia, utilized first as tools and later as weapons, the art of indoor axe throwing is a relatively new innovation. A few bored Canadians came up with the idea in 2006, totally unaware that the sport would quickly become wildly popular all over the world. But it’s not hard to see why: throwing an axe is exciting, challenging, a little bit dangerous, and entertaining to do with friends.
