    Up close of the only decent throw I made. They wet down the panels to help the axes stick.
    Cynthia N.

    I went to Bad Axe on a date last weekend, and we had a good time. There was a full house on a Saturday late afternoon but because of the layout it didn't feel crowded. We walked-in but you can make a reservation. Also, you have to complete a waiver using your phone, so if you don't have a smart phone it may be awkward while someone prints a waiver and finds a pen (maybe not but maybe so?!) Each party gets at least 2 lanes to throw, and there are axes of different lengths and weights so you can figure out which suits you best. You get a training talk and the trainers come around and help you with your form. You can bring in food and drinks (but don't go crazy with a buffet and poppin' bottles.) Considering Covid, this is a good activity for getting out. Most people had on masks. There was a large bottle of antibacterial gel available. The lanes are decently spaced out. The public space was not crowded. The only reason this isn't five stars is cuz I'm cheap. For 2 people for an hour you're playing $30 per person. You also tip your trainer (PLEASE do this as they are helpful and very chill.) Other than the price, this was a good activity.

    I went here to celebrate a friend's birthday. This was one of our activities for the day. We had a reservation. I do not know if it was required. Just to let you know this is like a rehab bed warehouse space. It is open indoors but open air sort of. The huge warehouse dock doors remain open. We had a great instructor that was patient with us considering it was all women in my party. I never in my life thought I would learn to throw an axe as a sport but I am not defeated. I was pretty open to the process. It's a little bit harder than people think it is. It looks so simple but can actually take the wind out of you. The other tables were fun to be around. They allow you to bring your own food and alcohol. We didn't know or else we would have done so. I would recommend this for groups definitely and would return.

    We had a great time here! Pablo was our coach person, so friendly and fun! Loved that they let our kids hang out with us while we had fun. Super neat place. Definitely recommend for a fun night out with friends, date or family.

    Kyle our coach was amazing and this being my first time Ax throwing I have no regrets! Planned this for my boyfriends 28th birthday party, with a party of 15, and it was definitely a favorite!!! BYOB's, pizza was delivered, and alcohol was encouraged! Ask for Kyle for a sarcastic and fun experience; what a great experience!!!

    Checked out Bad Axe Throwing for date night! It was a rainy Wednesday and when we pulled it it looked pretty dead. They were open, but there was only one other corporate party going on who had a few lanes. We were immediately greeted and asked to digitally sign the waiver to play. Super easy and I appreciated it wasn't a ton of questions to fill out. After a few min we were ready! We were shown to our lanes and given instructions on how to throw and play a game called 21. We were both better than we thought we would be and had a ton of fun! The fiancé and I are both super competitive! After a bit our instructor came by and asked if we wanted to learn a different game. He showed us Cricket. I thought the games shown were very easy for beginners and I appreciated the instruction. Towards the end of our 45 min the instructor came by and showed us how to throw 2 axes and said we could try knives or full size axes for an additional $5. Really the only reason I didn't give 5 stars was I feel that for the price ($30 per person for 45 min) it should include whatever you want to throw. I get they want to upsell, but how would a knife or a different axe add cost for them? We did take advantage of them selling beer/wine and had a couple beers while we played. The 45 seemed to go super quick since we were having so much fun! We'll definitely be back!

    I had so much fun here, This was such a unique date idea. I didn't hit any of the targets but I give myself an E for effort. Lol Before you start the instructors will I instruct on you how to hold the axe properly and how to throw it. There's also a score board so you can keep track of every target you hit. Parking is hell so get there early. I would definitely recommend this spot!

    This place is the best! Our host was such a huge part to us having the best time! Nobody in my group had done ax throwing before and we all left setting the date for our next visit, tee shirts in hand lol the host gave us great games to play and constantly was giving tips and advice for how to throw better. He was quick to help with beers and such. The only thing that I think would have been helpful is if they had buckets of beer, but it was a blast! We will be back soon!

    Trying out axe throwing!

    Some friends and I came here for a sober January outing and had a great time!! Our instructor Ben gave us a lot of great tips and taught us the proper way to throw the axes. We spent some time practicing our throws then broke up into teams to compete. We had so much fun! The place is located in a warehouse so it is quite chilly in winter. Once you start throwing axes you warm up pretty quickly though. Definitely rec immense for a fun outing!

    We went with a group last night and made reservations. The price was cheaper and we got longer throw times for booking in advance. There is parking on premises and it's far enough off the main area of West Midtown, so very easy to access. Our coach showed us several different throwing styles and gave us various game options. We brought a picnic style dinner. The venue was full, yet spaced appropriately. Large layout and high ceilings, so you felt comfortable. Masks required on entry and exit. Everyone in our party agreed that it was an amazingly enjoyable activity and we can't wait to book again!

    First time coming here. It was amazing! Good to get any stress or frustration out. The coach connor was fun and hospitable. We had a party of five and were shown all the games to play. Would definitely recommend and be returning again to throw.

    I actually have been meaning to come here for about a year now but could never pull the trigger. It took my best friend's birthday celebration here for me to finally see what I've been missing. What an awesome experience! If you're tired of the same old bowling, movie, or escape room activities, give this one a try! The thing I like about this the most is how you can customize your experience! The facility is BYOB and BYO Food lol! My group didn't realize that when we got there but that rookie mistake was easily rectified by UberEats lol. Make it easier on yourself and have food delivered if you have a big group. This place is perfect for big groups but make sure you check the website for availability. Thankfully we were able to secure a 2 hour block with two throwing areas. And the long table and stools near our section was adequate room for our 12 person party. Our reservation also came with an axe throwing expert to teach us the proper throwing techniques! She was awesome! Along with coaching us, she also kept score as axes kept flying lol! This is a great opportunity to let off some steam or try something completely new! The only thing that was semi-problematic was the parking. The lot in front of the facility itself is extremely small, allowing about 6 or 7 cars in the front. They do have parking in the back and street parking attached to the building behind the facility. But that was a small blip in comparison to the the great experience as a whole!

    We came to bad axe throwing for a work team building event. It was interesting because I have never done anything like this before nor would I have ever gone if someone didn't suggest. This place is really cool located in what looks like a tucked office complex, there was plenty of free parking also. Upon walking in the facilities looked somewhat small but turns out there are axe throwing stations around the back as well as couches to sit and wait for your turn. Our host was really cool as well very knowledgeable, down to earth,friendly, and funny. Come to find out he's actually a world axe throwing regional champion! I enjoyed my time at bad ax throwing my only thing was my coworker reserved like 4 hours & after an hour and a half I was over it. I suggested to our host having other things for patrons to do so people could have options like boardgames, card games, cornhole, and it wouldn't hurt to play a little music. But then again we did come during a weekday in the afternoon so who knows what the evening festivities look like.

    A glimpse of the medal
    Tammi D.

    We came here with a big group of friends for our second excursion in axe throwing. We loved it the first time, so we were super excited to try a new venue. The first time we had zero expectations, because it was a brand new experience, but this time, we had something to compare it to, and it fell short in comparison. Our axe master, the guy who teaches you how to throw was a nice guy, but the games we played initially seemed to not make a whole lot of sense. First of all, we were all either beginners or still new to axe throwing, so why was he trying to show us a way to throw underhanded when we haven't even mastered overhand? Secondly, the first game we played was grouping us into two groups, and we had to hit the number 21, I believe. It was some odd and random number. My gripe is, we are not axe masters. I'm thankful to hit the board at all and make it stick, much less be trying to shoot for a "1" point or a "3" point to win the game. Come on! The other issue was he was not good about safety. The other place we went stressed time and again to not hand off the axe to someone else, and several people in our group were doing just that, and he was not recognizing or not correcting this behavior. I found myself trying to hand off once as well, but again, not so safe. I felt like he should have been paying better attention to things. He was not all that helpful either in technique of throwing, but he was nice. My other issue was that the place was super hot. It was like in an old garage space or something, and they had it open. I can't imagine going in summer. Another problem was the location of the bathrooms. So we were throwing on one side and you had to traverse past the people throwing to get to and from the bathrooms. You had to constantly keep an eye out so you wouldn't accidentally get hit. Not very safe, in my opinion. The plus for me was that you could bring your own alcohol. Strange, but nice to not have to pay for anything extra there. The other axe place said it was prohibited because it was considered a sporting event, so it's dangerous to not have some restrictions on alcohol consumption. Well, that kinda goes with the territory at this place. The only other plus is the big medal my boyfriend won for winning the competition in our group. He's ridiculously talented at axe throwing for whatever that's worth. But we had to pay $20 for the medal, but my friend who set it up knew he was probably going to win, so she went ahead and paid for the big fancy medal. And it IS nice. He actually even went against the axe master and they tied and had to go into sudden death, of which they both hit the same area twice. So one of the other employees suggested they go for the kill shot, another area on the board where they have to try to hit the blue dots. He was a little farther than the axe master, but neither one of them hit it. I didn't think that was really all that fair, because he had never practiced to hit anything other than the bulls eye, but hey! He's THAT good. Don't know what you can do with that skill in the real world, but it's fun when you go axe throwing, just will have to do it in another locale.

The venue is spartan, but nice enough, and the staff are friendly and helpful! We truly enjoyed ourselves for our first time axe throwing. I want to mention that while we had made a reservation for six, we were unable to bring 2 of our people with us. I did not ask for a refund on the other two people. I suppose I could have. However, as this was a birthday event, and I wanted things to go smoothly and easily, I didn't bother. Also, the reservation that I made was for a single lane with the 2 axe throwing targets. When we arrived, there wasn't anyone else there. I'm not sure if it was just because there was no one there, or if they were just being nice in general, but they allowed us to use 2 lanes with 4 axe throwing targets and that made it even more fun! They brought out popcorn for everyone and had a fridge-bar with some canned drinks and snacks. I really didn't take any pictures, but I definitely intend to come back. So, next time; I promise. I did take a video of my sister and her friend losing the Jenga game! Enjoy!
