Axe Throwing Youth Camp (8-16) at The Bad Hatchet starts in April!

March 31, 2022

I am a huge fan of axe throwing, it's one of my favorite activities to do with friends! We've never found anywhere we could go as a family, so I was thrilled to find The Bad Hatchet in Westminster!!

They not only allow families to throw axes together, but they're offering a youth camp in April for kids to learn to throw like a pro and get a better understanding of axe throwing.

Did you know axe throwing has actually become a competitive sport? It's a quickly growing sport of skill, not of athleticism or strength. 

But is it safe? Yes! The Bad Hatchet has a set of rules for axe throwing that they're serious about. If you follow the rules, you're good! No different than throwing darts or bowling, both which could cause some damage if you're messing around. (Personal Experience: I was terrified the first time I went to throw axes, but now I've participated several times and know that I'm in a safe environment!)




Youth Camp Details

The Bad Hatchet is enthusiastic about kids learning about axe throwing. They want them to learn about the sport and proper technique, but they also want them to learn equipment maintenance and the history of the sport. They'll sneak in a little history lesson for the kids too!
