I had the great fortune of tagging along with Joypocalypse to watch the 2026 Countess Cup at the new Choppers in Philly. It was a relatively quick day for me, as we attended the Saturday festivities only — but wowee,…
Tourney Report
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…
670 ish photos from the 2026 U.S. championship
My sweet, dear reader. You know what time it is. It’s too many, not-really-very-good photos time from yer ol’ pal badger. At first, I planned to separate out each individual event into their own little section, but after a breakneck…
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…
Why am I even here: A badger’s guide to surviving a no good, very bad axe throwing marathon (and having fun doing it).
I should have known about 10 minutes after waking up. All the signs were there, after all. Today (today being January 1st) was not the day for me to marathon. I wasn’t ready for a marathon. I hadn’t slept well,…

My first knife throwing league/tourney
After owning a set of throwing knives for, like, a year and a half, I finally got the chance to use them in a league. After a very open, loosey-goosey sort of invitation, I gathered up my road dawg OtterGuy…
400 and 69 pictures from Urban Open 2025
Urban Open 2025 and come and gone, and I spent the greater majority of my time in those hallowed halls snapping away pictures. I think, in total, I had about 4k of them to go through. I managed to snickersnack…
IATC 2025 in about 120 pictures
IATC 2025 happened this past weekend, and I’ve finally managed to dig out from all the sleepiness and content gathering to present to you, dear reader, the ~120 pictures that weren’t absolute garbage (out of the ~2000 pictures I took.…
