Very cool location nice atmosphere. Entertaining way to spend an evening. The targets have interactive projection on them. It's a lot more fun than just throwing at the same target. There is plenty of parking at the back entrance. Good drinks, good times.

Visited McKinney location a couple days ago. Had a large-ish group of 10. We had a wonderful time! The staff was very helpful and made the whole experience. We had a few drinks - great beer selection. We had younger throwers and they made them feel very comfortable. Overall great experience and highly recommend!

Had a great time today at The Horses Ax ! Played darts and pool while waiting on some of the other guest to arrive. Check-in was seamless and the experience was wonderful!

This was our first time throwing Axes, and it certainly won't be our last! We had a great time, and it was pretty easy to learn. The staff was extremely nice and very helpful, especially the guy teaching everyone at the lanes. I forgot his name, but he was great and very patient with my wife who had a bit of a challenge trying to figure it out. We look forward to visiting again soon! Thanks for a lot of fun!!

People Also Ask
What should I expect during my first axe throwing experience?
Upon arrival, you'll check in, complete a safety waiver, and watch a safety video. An axe coach will then teach you proper throwing techniques and how to use the projected target system. You'll enjoy various games during your session, followed by a group photo opportunity.
Is a reservation required, or can I walk in?
While walk-ins are accepted based on availability, we highly recommend making a reservation in advance through our website or by phone to secure your spot.
Am I allowed to bring my own axe?
You cannot bring your own axe, but you can purchase a "Horse's Axe" from us and bring it back for future visits to receive a discount.
What is the dress code for axe throwing?
All participants must be fully clothed and wear closed-toe shoes for safety. If you forget appropriate footwear, shoes are available for rent.
Are there any age restrictions for participants?
All ages are welcome when accompanied by a parent or guardian. Children aged 7 and under can use foam axes, while those 8-12 will be assessed by a coach for safe axe throwing. Participants under 18 must be supervised.

Safety is our top priority. All throwers must sign a waiver, wear closed-toe shoes, and watch a safety video. Coaches provide instructions, and lanes are equipped with floor mats, no-bounce back borders, end-grain targets, and floor-to-ceiling walls.
