Have you ever done axe throwing?

I think I tried it once at a Renaissance festival. I keep getting Group on ads for some axe throwing place in the city. I think one of the keys is throwing it very hard to get it to stick. I think you would really have to step into the throw. Have you tried it, would you do it?

I have always wanted to try it. It looks like a lot of fun. Oh wait, snowy. You just gave me an idea on what to maybe do for my birthday!

I have never done it. It is not on my wish list. I have done some knife throwing.

Did you get them to stick?

Axes are heavy. I have not thrown one but I have chopped a lot of wood when I was much younger.

They actually use hatchets I believe.

No and no. I heard that there is a certain technique involved. Not my type of fun.

Check Group on.

I did and it took a jury a long time to decide it wasn't intentional

I have never tried that. No, I have no interest in ever trying.

I've done it twice. Had a great time! I would certainly do it again.

It seems like a fun activity. I will think about the Groupon thing. It would be cheaper at the Renaissance Festival, but they charge way too much for food there. Seen it, done it...got the Tshirt.

No, I have not tried it. I think the axe would be heavy for me to carry.

You don't carry it you just hold it while you aim your throw. They are more like hatchets actually, heavy but not overwhelming.

I haven’t ever tried it. Never even considered doing that. I saw it in the same place as you did, a Renaissance Festival., probably about ten years ago.

I would do it for fun. It would be a bummer if none of the axes went in though. One must import power with their throws!
