RE: Got An Axe to Grind, Sweetie?
This sport sounds like so much fun. I would never have considered it if you weren't sharing these stories.

It’s incredibly therapeutic @winstonalden and as easy as setting up some type of target in your backyard and throwing an old hatchet at it. I highly recommend giving it a try sometime. The subculture is interesting. Takes a special something, something mentally to pick up and axe and throw it. Most people wouldn’t run with scissors either. Lol!
You know, I've got just the place to try this out - an abandoned swimming pool with trees growing out of it. And I've even got the axe, too. Looks like I know what I'm doing this Spring...
That’s a perfect spot!
Now, I’ve never tried this yet, but I did watch a video that suggested that living trees are not good targets because it’s really hard to get the axe to stick. The bark makes for a bounce so you’re actually better off to build a target out of dried/cured wood rather than pick a living target that’s trying to reclaim the old pool.
Hahaha! Hidden bodies and an axe! You’ve nailed the quirky subculture @winstonalden!!
