Learn to throw axes and knives from champion coaches

Join us for a demo and practice session with champion throwers from the International Axe Throwing Federation (IATF). A casual tournament will follow. Dustin Kerr, a winning axe competitor, will run the program.

Dustin will demonstrate technique and safety practices when throwing two sizes of axes plus knives. “People enjoy having the option of throwing different kinds of objects,” he said. “It makes it more fun and with proper instruction, it is safe for a wide range of ages and abilities.”
