a new custom axe throwing product!
The IATF isn’t the only multi-national organization that can come out with premium products for this goofy sport. Point in fact, I think we here at Axe Badger HQ are uniquely positioned to make a custom axe throwing product for…
Tourney report: US Championships, gifts, kindness, the blood god.
We’re now a fair distance from the U.S. Championship events of 2026, and after allowing my noodle-y brain process everything that happened, I’m ready to share some of the highlights, what was wonderful, and what was less-than-stellar. Think of this…
Axe Thrower Interview: the Mattador

US Champs is this week, and I’m ultra-stoked, now.
The first time I went to ChillAxe, I was greeted by kindness and love and joy and realized the place Rob and Dina built was, probably, the very best thing axe throwing had to offer. Smash cut to this year…
Dear Clutchy: I don’t enjoy larger axe Throwing Tournament Weekends – help!
Dear Clutchy, The U.S. Championship is coming up next week, and lots of my league friends are going. They want me to come along, but I don’t want to spend lots of money to just go 0-2, pay for lodging,…
