Awesome, fun, and delightful time! I did the 1 hour private axe throwing session with my woman and it was a blast! We also signed up for the premium throwing items, which included different axes, ninja stars and a shovel to throw. The customer service here is superb. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and just good people.
They also have giant jenga and a pool table, which are free to use. BYOB and you can bring your own food too. Excellent date idea! Would return 💯

Had our teenager’s bday celebration here. It was so fun and Nova was an Ax Master extraordinaire! Highly recommend getting a session in before they close at the end of the month! Wish we would have found this place sooner.

Had a great time at Bury the hatchet! 😊 Nova was a phenomenal axe master! Very thorough, patient, and fun. Helped tweaked the throw ever so slightly so by the end of the session we could hit the wood consistently 😁 I’m excited to go back again. Definitely check it out! And yes I got a bull eye TWICE! ☺️😏
