7 Best Axe Throwing Games to Test Your Skills

If you’ve been looking for a way to channel your inner lumberjack or just want a fun and unusual way to blow off some steam, then axe throwing is for you. Once a way to show off warrior prowess and demonstrate hatchet-wielding precision, today’s axe throwing adventures are a way to engage in a fun-filled family activity or create unforgettable memories with colleagues and friends. 

One of the best ways to improve your skills and show off is to train your arm and practice with axe throwing games. Some axe games are designed to test your accuracy, others to improve your strength, and some will increase your endurance. If you’re up to the challenge, there are quite a number of hatchet games that will test all three at once! This article will cover seven of our favorite axe throwing games that can be played either one-on-one or in a group setting. 

At Axe Master, we always put safety first, which is why we remind you that you shouldn’t be trying any of these games at home. Instead, visit a safe and supervised axe throwing location where both novice and expert axe throwers can learn new techniques, hone existing skills, and enjoy the exciting sport of axe throwing.

7 Fun and Challenging Axe Throwing Games

You’re probably familiar with the original sport of axe throwing, where you aim your axe at a target consisting of three or more concentric circles. But let’s break down the rules of a throwing axe game a little bit more. 

The center circle is called a bullseye and is worth five points in most axe throwing contests. If your axe lands outside the bullseye but within the next circle, you get three points, and outside that circle but inside the next will earn you one point. The target also contains two dots to the top of the circles, called “clutch” and are worth seven points each. If your axe lands outside these circles and dots, you get zero points. And if your axe doesn’t stick to the board at all, it’s referred to as a drop. 

While you can certainly find hours of enjoyment keeping score or just engaging in hatchet game target practice, there are a lot of different axe throwing games. Here are seven of our top picks, as well as how to play. It’s up to you which hatchet game suits you best, so give them all a try till you find your fit!

  1. HORSE Hatchet Games (2 Players or 2 Teams)
    You probably remember the two-person basketball game called HORSE. The following are a couple of axe throwing game variations of this popular schoolyard game.
    • 2 Player Horse: Instead of moving around a court throwing shots from different vantage points like you do in basketball HORSE, in the two-player hatchet throwing game HORSE, Player 1 stands 12 feet from the target and calls out the points and location they aim to hit before each throw, such as “3 on the bottom right.” If Player 1 hits the target as called, then the opposing axe-thrower (Player 2) tries for the same outcome. If Play 2 fails to hit the target as called by Player 1, they get the letter “H” and Player 1 will lead again, throwing their axe and calling the location. If Player 2 misses again, they get the letter “O.” If Player 2 makes the throw, however, no letters are assigned and Player 2 gets to throw the next axe and call the points and location and Player 1 follows. If Player 1 misses, they will be assigned a letter. The two players take turns until one spells out the word HORSE, losing the match.
    • Team Horse: Players divide into two teams. Players from competing teams throw head to head with the team with the lower cumulative score receiving a letter. The first team to have HORSE spelled out loses. In the event of a tie, one player from each team will throw head-to-head to determine the winner.
  2. Around the World (2 Players or 2 Teams)
    This one’s pretty straightforward, which is probably why it’s one of the most popular options out there. It’s a great way to hone your aim and get control over your throwing arm. Around the World is considered one of the best axe games that can be played one-on-one or in teams. The idea is to throw the axe to hit each area of the board first from the outside in and then from the inside out. The first team to hit the board in this order — 0,1,3,5,3,1,0 — wins.
  3. Landmines (2 Players or Teams)

    Landmines can also be played either between just two players or in two or more teams. Players accumulate points as they throw, adding to their team’s overall score. The first team to get 51 or more points wins. The “landmine” occurs when a team’s score is equal to a multiple of 10, such as 20, 30, 40, or 50. If the team’s total score hits one of these landmines, their score goes down to 10 points. 

    A variation on landmines is for each team to start at 50 points with a goal of playing until one team reaches 100 points. Four landmine numbers — typically 65, 75, 85, and 95 — are set. If you land on a landmine, your team is set back 10 points. Landmines are only dangerous once. So once a landmine is hit, it won’t “blow up” the next time someone hits it.

  4. Killer (Best Played in Teams)

    The game begins with a board that is modified so it has enough numbers evenly spaced around the board for each person playing on each team to end up with a different number. Whatever number they hit becomes their assigned number. Since no two players on the same team can have the same number, players have to keep throwing until they hit a number that hasn’t already been taken. 

    Every player has three lives. The initial goal is to become a killer. You do that by hitting your own number twice. Once you’re a killer, your goal is to hit the number of a player on the opposing team, which causes them to lose one of their lives. The game is over when one team takes all the lives from the players on the other team.

  5. Cornhole (2 Teams)
    Chances are you’ve heard of this game before, popular at tailgates and backyard barbecues. So how can you play one of America’s favorite pastimes with axes? Easy — players throw their axes to accumulate points instead of bean bags. The team that reaches 21 first wins. However, the twist with cornhole is in how the scores are calculated. After a player from each team throws, the lower score is subtracted from the higher score and the higher-throwing team member achieves a score equal to the difference. For example, if Team A throws a 3 and Team B throws a 1, Team A gets 2 points. If Team A throws a 2 and Team B throws a 3, Team B gets 1 point.
  6. Humans and Zombies (The More the Merrier)

    Humans and Zombies is played with two teams, but the makeup of these teams keeps changing. And if Human players aren’t careful, they become one of the walking dead. 

    Starting out, one player is the lone member of the Zombie team and everyone else is on the Human team. The Zombie throws against a Human using the same scoring method as used in Cornhole (subtract low score from high). If the Human wins, the Human team gets the difference in points. If the Zombie wins, the Human player becomes a Zombie and no points are awarded. If there is a tie, they keep the status quo. No points are awarded and the Human stays a Human. 

    Humans win if they reach 21 points before all Humans are converted to Zombies. If everyone is a Zombie, then the Zombies win.

  7. Blackjack (2 or More Players Divided Into 2 Teams)

    To win at Blackjack, your team has to accumulate 21 points. Each team gets to throw 10 times with the goal of getting a score of 21 or as close as possible to 21 without going over. If a team goes over 21 then it “busts” and loses the hand. It’s important to note that if a team reaches 21 before completing the 10 throws, the throws that remain need to land in the 0 points area. If they land in a points area, the team will bust. 

    When you score Blackjack throws, you only count the points if the axe is 100% within the scoring zone. If the axe blade is not entirely embedded in the zone, the thrower is awarded 0 points. In addition, if a player drops their axe, they score a negative 4. So players on a team that has reached 21 can’t just drop their axes and move on.

Axe Master Offers a World of Axe Throwing Fun

Of course, the list above is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to axe games. There are dozens of games you can play with a hatchet, and most have multiple variations so players at every level of axe throwing skill can find a way to compete.

16 Memorable Bachelor Party Ideas You Should Consider

16 Memorable Bachelor Party Ideas You Should Consider

The bachelor party is one of the most fun and memorable days for the groom and his friends in the weeks leading up to the wedding. While the bachelor party weekend is typically associated with lots of partying and drinking, there are many more creative bachelor party ideas worth exploring that will ensure you have a great time and bond with friends.

A bachelor party can become a way to not only celebrate the next step in a person’s life but also have new enriching experiences and create memories you can cherish for the rest of your life.

But what are some of the best bachelor party ideas you should consider? Let’s explore below.

1. Axe Throwing

If you’re looking fun bachelor party ideas that are also out-of-the-box, you can’t go wrong with taking your friends to experience what it’s like to throw an axe into a target. This activity is thrilling and will get the entire party’s blood pumping. Another plus? It’s completely safe, easy to organize, and relatively affordable.

Another great thing about organizing an axe-throwing bachelor party is that it’s easy to learn, even if no one in your group has ever done it. The game is perfect for people of various ages and fitness levels, so everyone can participate.

Axe throwing combines friendly competition with a thrilling experience that no one in the group will forget.

2. Have a Theme

No matter what men’s bachelor party ideas you end up going with, a good theme can almost always enhance the experience. It can give the entire evening more direction while allowing the bachelor party to put their spin on the events that will take place.

To make a theme more fun, take the time to consider what the groom enjoys. Picking a theme from pop culture or a period that the groom likes will ensure that the experience is one he (and the entire party) will fully embrace.

Some popular bachelor party themes include superhero, video game characters, and pirate party themes. Take the fun to the next level by having the bachelor party dress up in their favorite characters and explore the city. This move guarantees a few fun conversations (and free shots!)  

3. Map Out a Bar Crawl

Staying in one place for the entire bachelor party can easily become stagnant. Organizing a beer crawl is one of the best ideas for a bachelor party to combat that. Hopping from bar to bar will ensure you have plenty of different experiences and that the evening remains vibrant and exciting.

When mapping out the bar crawl for your evening, you should make a few essential considerations. First, you need to map out the crawl so that each subsequent bar is easy to access on your route and logistically fits well with your other activities (such as axe throwing). 

At the same time, you should consider bars that have some meaning to the groom. If the friend group has a bar they regularly visit, it might be an excellent spot to add to your list because of the nostalgia.

4. Road Trip

Few things can excite a group of friends as much as the prospect of going on a road trip together. So, if you’re looking for bachelor party activities that are a bit more ambitious, consider hitting the road and finding a destination that has something different to offer.

Whether you take a tour across the state, go to a national park, or even visit a classic bachelor party destination like Las Vegas or Atlantic City, the road trip is often the most fun part. The ride allows your group to bond and share memories on the road that they might not get on a short plane ride.

5. Paintball

If your bachelor party enjoys shooting stuff at each other while also getting dirty, paintball is the activity you don’t want to miss. 

Paintball remains one of the staple bachelor party ideas, providing an adrenaline boost for those who enjoy the rush. 

It’s also the perfect daytime activity that will quickly break the ice, get the entire group to loosen up, and get in the right mindset for the bachelor party really begins!  

If you want to make it more fun, create a prize for the winner or develop special rules for the groom, with rewards for wins or penalties for getting shot.

6. Bungee Jumping

Freefall is one of the most intense experiences a person can have, especially if they haven’t done it before. So, for those that want the bachelor party to have an extra element of thrill, you can organize a bungee jumping experience for the entire group.

It’s another activity that’s great for the beginning of the day, providing an exhilarating element that will require people to get over their fear of heights and take a giant leap of faith.

If your group is up for the challenge and wants to start the bachelor party on a high note, bungee jumping is one of the most exciting outdoor bachelor party ideas you could plan.

7. Sporting Event

One thing most friend groups can bond through is sports. So, if your bachelor party falls into this category, getting tickets to a basketball, football, or baseball game might be just what’s needed for a good time.

You can take the event up a notch by organizing premium tickets with a private lounge overlooking the entire stadium. Extra points if it’s one of the groom’s favorite sports teams. This will elevate your group’s experience while ensuring it’s a night the groom will never forget.

8. Distillery Tour

Booze is an integral part of most bachelor parties, but that doesn’t mean you and your friends must go to a bar to enjoy a few drinks. Instead, one of the best bachelor party activities you could consider is heading to a distillery tour, where the group could learn how a high-quality bourbon or whisky is made and aged.

Learning about the lengthy and complex process of distilling alcohol is a great way to kick off the day and can add a layer of appreciation for the groom’s primary drink of choice. A distillery tour is also sure to feature a tasting, which is something that everyone in the group can enjoy.

9. Go Fishing

Instead of going for activities full of adrenaline and excitement, you may want to plan something that will allow everyone to relax and unwind. Fishing is the perfect activity to have meaningful conversations while enjoying nature.

So, if the groom (or the entire bachelor party) enjoys a slower pace, fishing can be one of the better bachelor party ideas to consider. You should consider adding it to your list if the bachelor party grew up fishing together. 

You can take the activity a step further and organize a boat fishing trip or go to a more exciting location where most in the group don’t regularly fish.

However, for fishing to work as a bachelor party activity, everyone must enjoy it. You want the groom (and everyone else) to have a good time, so make sure they are regular anglers. The last thing you want is for the activity to end up being difficult for the party. Of course, you can also get an expert to come with you and make it a learning experience, which can also be rewarding.

10. Mountain Climbing

Another activity that should be on the list of outdoor bachelor party ideas is going mountain climbing. This activity is excellent for those who enjoy thrills and excursions, but it can also be enjoyable if some people in the group don’t fall into that category. 

Even if no one in the group has a lot of experience, you can hire an expert to guide you through the entire process, ensuring that the trip will be enjoyable and safe for everyone involved.

The great thing about organizing a mountain climbing trip is that you can make it as easy or challenging as you want, as there are many options to choose from in most areas across the nation. Moreover, you can combine it with other exciting activities such as axe throwing or a brewery tour in a nearby city.

11. Camping

If you want to explore scenery off the beaten path and challenge your survival skills, you can take the bachelor party into the wilderness by organizing a memorable camping trip. This activity is one where you’ll leave your daily comforts behind and unplug.

You can either rent a cabin or go camping with tents, taking only the necessities (including some good food and beverages) and getting away from the stress and worries of civilization.

Bonding and relaxing in a natural setting may be just what’s needed in the middle of a wedding planning process. So, if you have a few days, camping might be an activity that will create lasting memories for the entire group.

12. Hit the Beach

Sometimes, all you need is some sun, a cooler, and a drink in your hand to have a great time with your buddies. That’s why when it comes to men’s bachelor party ideas, few options are as relaxing as going on a beach trip (even if it’s just for a day!). 

Whether you fly out to a beach destination or head to a beach near the city you live in, there are always options for getting some sun at any time of the year. 

The great thing about going to the beach is that you won’t have to rush through many activities. You can also come back refreshed and with a nice tan, which is a great way to enjoy your time with friends.

13. Golfing

Golf is one of the most popular pastimes for men of all ages. And that makes it the perfect sporting activity to enjoy with a diverse group of friends, no matter how old they might be. Most cities in the country have a range of golf clubs to choose from, so all you need to do is book a tee time in advance for the entire party and show up to go through the course. 

If you want to take it to another level and make it even more immersive, you could hire a golf coach to join you and help everyone in the group knock a few strokes off their game. After a nice round of golf, you can be sure that everyone will be ready for other good bachelor party ideas planned for the rest of the evening, such as axe throwing or a bar crawl.

14. Play Poker

Cool bachelor party ideas don’t require the group to hop on a plane or take a long road trip. Sometimes they can even be organized at home, as long as the activity is something that everyone will enjoy. Sure, there are plenty of extreme bachelor party ideas (many of which we’ve covered above), but you may want something simpler that meets everyone’s schedules and budget.

That’s why poker games remain a staple bachelor party activity. Instead of having to run through a fast-paced and complex bachelor party schedule, your group of friends can relax with a beer or a nice glass of whiskey while enjoying a low-stakes game. This activity is sure to create plenty of opportunities for friendly banter.

Of course, you can also opt for a more luxurious poker experience by taking the group to a casino. You could even get a private poker room through a casino party rental, creating a more authentic evening.

15. Video Games

Most guys today grew up with video games, and many are avid gamers well into their adult lives. So, if your group has a history of getting together to play Call of Duty or Madden, you could make it a theme of the evening. 

You can get together for a fun night of video games at someone’s home. You can even organize a throwback evening by putting together an old-fashioned LAN party, bringing a bunch of computers in one room, and playing classics like Counter-Strike, Diablo II, or Left 4 Dead.

Many cities also have providers that offer private gaming rooms with comprehensive setups, plenty of games to choose from, and the perfect place to enjoy some drinks in designated gaming space. 

If the groom loves arcade games, some venues offer drinks and arcade gameplay that will make the entire party feel like they’re walking down memory lane.

16. Go to a Concert

If there’s an artist the bachelor party enjoys that’s coming to a venue near the city, a concert might make for an unforgettable night. This one can be especially memorable if you organize a surprise concert trip to see an artist that the groom loves.

Getting to see a live concert of your favorite singer or band is one of the most memorable experiences a person can have, so it’s only natural that it belongs on the list of the best bachelor party ideas

As a bonus, concerts are usually places to drink and party, which are staples of a good bachelor party.
