Axes & Beer - Is it safe?
We have delivered axe throwing experiences at numerous organised events throughout the years, and we can confidently say that incorporating a beer or two while engaging in this activity is perfectly safe and indeed enjoyable. It is important to note that there are boundaries, and our experienced team possesses the ability to discern individuals who may need to abstain from participating.
Axe throwing is great family entertainment, managing to capture the attention of individuals from various age groups. We have successfully created an environment where players of all ages find themselves engaged and entertained. The addition of beverages such as beer, along with appetising food options, further enhances the experience. Moreover, participants get the opportunity to indulge in several rounds of axe throwing, creating an atmosphere that is sure to captivate those seeking a unique day out.
GETTING STARTED
So it goes without saying that we are well-versed in the art of axe throwing. Our extensive experience enables us to efficiently impart the necessary techniques to your guests, ensuring they swiftly grasp the skill and successfully land their axes on target. Initially, our teaching approach maintains an informal ambiance for those who express interest in participating. Once everyone feels at ease with the process, we provide them with the opportunity to engage in friendly competition by challenging one another through a series of ten throws each, striving to attain the highest scores possible.

SATISFYING
Apple Smashing
Optional Extra – Kids Love It
Apple smashing is among the additional activities we offer to enhance your experience. Apart from providing a source of gratification through the act of throwing an axe and annihilating a piece of fruit, this particular endeavour caters to individuals who may find it challenging to accurately hit the target board with their axes. These may include children who possess a genuine addiction for the game and struggle to put the axes down once they’ve grabbed them!
DRINKING GAME
Hammerschlagen
Optional Extra – Great Drinking Game
This game, known as “Hammerschlagen,” is a straightforward and enjoyable activity. Each player begins by selecting a nail from the bucket and gently inserting it into the timber to establish its starting position. To determine the order of play within your group, you can collectively decide who goes first. When it’s your turn, hold the hammer down at your side and execute one continuous motion to raise it and attempt to strike your nail. Remember, only one attempt is allowed per turn. If you find that your nail needs repositioning, don’t fret! You can correct its position on your next turn but forfeit an opportunity to strike it in doing so. The objective of Hammerschlagen is simple: be the first player to fully embed their nail into the timber!
Game Suggestions
- Play for a wager – winner takes all!
- Miss your nail – take a slurp of beer!
- Last one standing – buy all of your mates a drink!
Optional Extra – Unlimited Attempts
This is a game that has gained significant traction across our venues and at festivals. The objective of the player is to achieve a minimum score of 25 or higher within six throws, with the reward being a TimberJacks tee. It’s interesting to observe how even those individuals who may not initially appear competitive can surprise you by showcasing their innate drive and determination in this gripping game.
