York Indoor Axe Throwing Experience for One Person
Axe throwing for aspiring Vikings!
£25.00 PER PERSON
A brilliant gift for fun loving friends and family. Channel your inner Viking and head to York to bury some axe heads in a wooden target less than 4 meters away. Full training will be given before your session and you will be safely enclosed in a cage, with dampening pads above, below, and on the ground in front of targets. The Hilt is York’s first indoor axe throwing venue with 8 lanes ensuring everyone can throw together.
Players are given approximately 20 minutes to warm up and practice. The awesome coaches will work with each individual, ensuring everyone is trained in one and two handed throwing. Then, let the competition commence:
- Two Vikings throw at the same time.
- Each player throws an equal number of times per round.
- Players score each time their axe sticks the target
- Total highest score crowns the Viking or Viqueen at the end.
