Need stress relief? Try axe throwing

Believe it or not, axe-throwing bars, where patrons throw axes at targets on the wall, are a growing trend in Ohio and across the country. Basically, you throw 1.5 pound hatchets at wooden targets marked with a bull’s-eye and score points.

You can bring a group or go it alone. The bar supplies equipment and you can even join a league. Each place has trained experts who will show you how to safely handle an axe and chuck it with accuracy. Here are a few spots to visit:

• Cleveland Axe Throwing
• Columbus Axe Throwing
• Cincinnati Axe Throwing
