Stopped by here a few weeks ago or so with some coworkers. I honestly had no idea it was there,…read morebut the location is nice, and it's a great new option for something to do in the area. Signing Up: I was admittedly annoyed in the beginning, as the paying/sign up process seemed a bit annoying at first, but it wasn't terrible. I was still limping along a real P.O.S. smart phone at the time, so the premise of trying to use it and its limited battery life was irritating, but they had a pretty easy workaround. Keep that in mind if you'd like to avoid using your phone. Also note that they have a cheaper option for those looking to just observe and not actually throw. Throwing: The throwing areas are all nicely sized with seating areas that offer plenty of space without too much overlap with other people in adjacent throwing areas. The place is actually much bigger than it initially seems due to the layout. The trainer who initially explains all the rules was very helpful with demonstrating different throwing styles and scoring options, was personable as well, and periodically checked in to see if we had any questions. Bar: The bar is well-appointed with a rather long list of canned beers. No glasses, however, and the prices will add up quickly on you if you have a bunch. I imagine it is NOT BYOB anymore, given that there's a bar, so ignore that if you see it in other comments. Also- they have menus available for restaurants which will deliver, and I believe some of them may even offer a discount for delivery to Stumpy's, so ask Stumpy's which one(s).

"Is there nothing I can say, nothing I can do To change your…read moremind? I'm so in love with you I'll be your saviour, steadfast and true I'll come to your emotional rescue" (Jagger and Richards) A professional organization I belong to was scheduled to hold an axe throwing party/charity fundraiser at Pine & Iron in Hartford last night. But two and a half days ago, they contacted us to cancel because they had closed their doors for good. We didn't want to cancel the event, so what were we to do? Well, Montana Nights came to our rescue and 20 of us had a blast. Our Guardian Angel was manager Carolyn, who worked in a slot for our group, arranged an instructor, pizza and sandwiches from Square Peg, and drink tickets from their bar (beer and axes, what could go wrong?). Anyway, we had a freaking blast at Montana Nights. Our instructor Kyle was great. He gave us a safety talk, demonstrated one hand and two hand throwing techniques, and broke us into two teams for some axe flinging fun. We threw at a conventional bulls eye target, an unconventional bulls eye target where the center moved around, and Tic Tac Toe and Connect Four variations. I threw ten axes in warm ups, and then 20 axes in two ten-frame 4-person team contests. I stuck one out of ten in the warm ups, just one in Game #1, but improved significantly by sticking 4 in the second game. I even had a center Bulls Eye!! By the way, the food from Square Peg was great - lots of different pizzas, grinders cut into fours, and a big salad. Thank you Carolyn and Kyle for saving our event. It was a charity collection event where our members donated new clothing, toys, and household supplies for Madonna House in Norwich, CT. I would love to see Yelp incorporate more of some sort of charity collections at our events. Sort of a "Pay It Forward" philosophy. Everyone can afford to bring a few cans of soup or tuna to donate to a group that needs them.

It was not very busy which benefitted us greatly as we got more one on one attention and training. They have 2 size axes which was perfect for my group. I chose the lighter one while everyone picked the heavier. It's about 10 feet to throw so just the right distance. You can pay $3 & bring your own alcohol (in a can, not hard drinks). That worked out perfectly! Only draw back is its a bit hard to find since entrance is in back of building. But once I was in parking lot, I saw the sign Definitely going back again!!

Loved the fact it's BYOB (with a small added fee of $3 pp) so you can enjoy whatever beer or wine you prefer. Saw some people brought their own snacks too. They gave a short intro demo and taught us how to throw the axes as well as game ideas for the time you're there. The workers there are super helpful and nice making it a good environment to have some fun at. Great experience and I definitely plan to come again since the prices are reasonable!

The first thing we noticed was how attentive and friendly all of the staff were. It's apparent that they enjoy their work and go out of their way to ensure the customers are enjoying themselves too. The safety briefing found the perfect balance of providing necessary info without being overbearing right before the fun starts. The courses are all very well laid out and offer an excellent progression as the comfort and confidence grows. There are enough options to choose from that it never felt crowded at all even though they were very busy today with the nice weather. Overall, just a simply amazing day trip and well worth the 1.5 hr drive for us to get there. We are already planning our next trip and our only regret is that it took us so long to find out about The Adventure Park and make the time to go.

I want to say they had about 6 lanes for axe throwing? Could be totally wrong. A staff member spends the hour with you, but kind of in the background, they're not annoying and just lingering. They show you safe and proper techniques for throws, and then just step to the side. After some regular throws we were taught some trick shots, and then played some games. I wasn't thinking much of axe throwing when it was mentioned as a birthday game plan, but it was actually a ton of fun. For all my competitive athletes, this is the place to go. I would definitely return again

I decided to stop by the Lazy Axe for some random Saturday fun and I am glad I did…read more As a walk in, I paid $27 for a full hour of axe time which came with a friendly and helpful "Axepert" who showed me the best ways to throw the axes, critiqued my form, and had me hitting bullseyes in no time! The staff in general were very friendly and enthusiastic about showing me ways to enjoy this relatively young sport originating from Canada. I learned that they host league nights, and that they even have someone who is nationally ranked that attends. His special throw is the, "canadian flick" (I think) which is where one leans in, and well... flicks the axe at the target. I learned there are many ways to throw an axe over the course of the hour so I was never bored and I felt like I had plenty of time to enjoy myself. There was the standard double handed over the head toss, the single handed toss (my favorite), the flick, the underhanded trick shot, the double axe over head toss at two targets, same thing with the underhanded, and this really hard one where you sort of scissor a overhand and underhand at the same time at two different targets. I was... sort of successful at some of those but definitely would need to be a regular to get good enough to be consistent. They also taught me two or three games you can play with people in your group. So between the lessons, trick shots, and games, I had plenty of things to do for the hour I was there alone. Which if you think about it, is impressive. If I had been with a group, just talking and enjoying everyones company, that hour would have flown by. If you are looking for a fun and creative way to enjoy an hour with a date, or group of friends, or just solo, check this place out. Axe throwing is fun! They have a good online reservation system for groups which I recommend if you are planning to go with a large (4+) group because from what I hear, they can get busy. Especially in the evening time on a Saturday. Just remember to follow the rules, listen to your Axepert, be aware of your surroundings, and please, just don't be an asshole. These are nice people running a nice business with a fun name. No need to hit anything or anyone other than the actual targets with your axe which is really easy to do... when you are paying attention and nice. If you end up going you shouldn't forget to ask about their rewards card. 5-6 visits gets you a free hour. Honestly, I have spent $20-$30 dollars on some things where I had way less fun than what I got out of this experience. It was absolutely worth it and maybe even considering joining a league and socializing with a nice group of axe throwing folk one day. Visit, enjoy!
