Axe Throwing
Nick (Timberhitch Axe Throwing) has been teaching and demonstrating the therapeutic art of Axe throwing for over 20 years which involves different styles of Tomahawk and double headed axes.
Due to the varied weight of the axes, with our expert guidance, most people would be able to pick up an axe and throw it comfortably and hit the target !
This is done on an individual one on one basis (even in a group environment), just to ensure safety and maximum fun at all times!)
