Class Axe Throwing

They now go by the name of Lumber Legends. I made my reservation online for a Sunday for two people. I've done axe throwing once and my friend was completely new to it.The guy helping us out was lovely. He alleviated my friend's concern of thr axe bouncing amd injuring her. He was also very knowledgeable about fixing our form so we could hit the targets. He was also happy to take photos for us so we could both be in them. After the instruction he ran us through some games. Over all we have a fantastic time. $25 for an hour is really not bad. I think this is something that would be great to do during the colder months when the weather can get terrible. Would definitely recommend!

We attended a corporate event here and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! It was intimidating because I'm not generally athletic, but it was a BLAST!The staff was welcoming and made us feel comfortable. They trained us and supervised the entire time we threw our axes. They had several "competitions" set up, including a Bingo type event, a zombie event, and a warship event (which mimics an old timey game from the 70s).I can't wait to bring my friends here! They even have axe throwing leagues that you can join!!!!Thanks for the great experience!

Came here on 6/17/22. Overall 10/10! What a great experience! Our host/ trainer was absolutely amazing! Great sense of humor, absolutely loved teaching , and got super excited when the our kids made the axe stick! Took time to explain everything, this experience was excellent! We truly enjoyed ourselves, and the staff here! Would absolutely recommend!!!!

I had the absolute pleasure of spending part of my birthday weekend here. I planned in advance by calling and setting up my reservation. The process was super easy. They allowed me to add guests closer to the date. When my party arrived, it was a painless process. We all were able to complete our waiver online prior to arriving. Our host was "Your Axellency". She is fantastic! Our entire group of 9 was first timers. She walked us through it all seamlessly. Everyone is eager to put another game night together soon. I'm so happy I chose this establishment for my birthday and cannot wait to return!

What a thrill! Get the right group together and it'll be a blast. I was nervous about how the experience would be, but I ended up having such a good time, both with friends and the strangers on our lane.For purchasing tickets/reserving a time:I bought a Groupon (discounts, yay!!) for 6 people - One 90-Minute Axe Throwing Session for Six. It was simple to register on the Class Axe Throwing website as there as specific instructions for those with a Groupon code to redeem. Keep in mind that there are some fees associated when you register, but Groupon frequently has deals for a certain percentage off an activity, to offset those costs. Each lane can hold up to 12 people, so if you want to bring a group in you might want to have one person book it online (or call about their private event reservations). If the lane is booked, with only a few people from your party, you'll be mixed with other strangers - don't worry! It should be fun, so long as nobody gets extremely competitive or is a sore loser.Axe throwing:Pro tip - come ready with a pun-worthy lumberjack name for yourself. I scrambled last minute but eventually came up with "Professor Axe". Our lane had all 12 spots booked, so my party of 6 was mixed with another party of 6. Our instructor, or better known as our "Axe-pert" (Sir Axe-a-lot), split us off into two teams (also think of a team name), and carefully went through how the next hour or so would go. Not gonna lie, I was pretty nervous. Sharp objects and casual BYOB over in the back with strangers? Usually, I'd go running in the opposite direction, NOT paying to go! Our instructor was very VERY clear as to how we were to handle the axes and when we were allowed to throw or retrieve our axes from the target (or, more often, the ground). One person from each team, in order, goes up and throws to their respective target. There are two type of throws: using one or two hands. The instructor was very attentive after each one of us threw to give us advice to be successful in sticking the target. Things like when to release, or how to hold the axe - all of which were so helpful, that all of us were able to improve in the span of a few throws. After we had each thrown a few, we started the competition. We did 2 different team games vs each other and then a free-for-all where each person had 10 throws and the highest score won! I want to note, that by that point, most people had at least hit the board or gotten a bulls eye! If you didn't, the instructor pulled you aside to let you throw a few on an empty lane while he gave you tips. With 12 people there, I was very happy to see that he was so attentive and made sure everyone was having a good time, even if that meant sticking the board at least once. They were also very generous when people hit the line for the bulls eye - each person got a photo with their accomplishment! I think they post them on their facebook website shortly after. All in all, I'd highly recommend this activity for group events! You can bring your own beer (please be safe about it!!!) and they even have mini fridges to keep it cool for you as you play. I'm already thinking of the next time I can get a group to go!! So much fun! They still have Groupons available, so check there first for a discount!

I thought this place was called Cleveland Axe Throwing, but I think they changed their name to Class Axe Throwing?I found a Groupon for 4 people to try axe throwing for 90 minutes for $95.95, but then you have to go schedule your date/time on the website and pay an extra $20.72 for taxes and fees? I really hate that. Just give me one price don't say it's one thing then slip in extra charges. So anyway it came out to $29.17 a person. Day of we show up and find out that the 4 of us will be sharing a lane with 7 other people. I think they do up to 12 per lane. There are 3 lanes. Not a problem, we just split into two groups and everyone got along. So throwing axes is pretty fun, especially when you compete against others with fun games like first team to 40, or who can spell Timber first, or best throws out of 10. But before the fun starts you'll spend about an hour learning the rules and axe throwing techniques (two handed overhead, one handed) - hitting the bullseye on a large target is definitely not as easy as you first think. After the training bit is over you get about 30 minutes of actual play time. In our case we were the last group of the night so our time went over a little bit which I appreciated them allowing. A good thing though is that if everyone in the entire group has already done axe throwing they will shorten the training period next time you come in so that you have more play time. Also, I liked the music they were playing. A big negative for me though was the lack of A/C on a hot humid July night. They had a garage door open and a couple wall fans but that barely helped. If you're a person who heats up easily like me then I would not recommend coming here during the summer. Stick with cooler weather unless you like damp clothing and smelling sweaty bodies. Another issue I had was with picture taking. Actually, my issue is with the lady who gave me a hard time when I asked if they would not take my picture. I get it, you want to promote your business and share pictures of people throwing axes at your establishment on Facebook. I know lots of people don't care and will model for you all you want. Me though, I like pictures of myself to stay as personal/private as possible. Big group picture? No problem, I will be in the back, but I don't want singled out pictures of me for strangers all over the interwebs to look at. I get that I signed a waiver in order to do this axe throwing activity, but can't you respect my wishes and not photograph me? I did not care for this lady, but the guy instructing our group was great and had no problem not snapping shots of me. He was a lot more chill and understanding. So all in all, I think new experiences are great so I would suggest this to everyone, just hopefully my review prepares you better for what you're getting into. I would try it again in the winter. Also note that you need to sign the waiver electronically in advance and that alcohol is allowed but for private parties only and it's BYOB. I do wonder what they do with all of the wooden boards that get hacked up? Seemed like they replace them every day.

The location is very unassuming. You would, and probably will drive past this place the first time you go if you're not hawking for it, but it is worth seeking out. Fun for work outings, friends or probably even a fun date option that combines athleticism, competitive spirit, a chance for bloopers, and an element of danger. The instructor/guide that we had was excellent. The space is situated well inside, and the pricing is fair. Based on what I hear about expanding the space I'm eager to go back.

Class Axe Throwing is a pretty good way to spend 90 minutes with your buds!First off, the location in Valley View is nice because there are cool places to eat/drink nearby like Oak Barrel or Quaker Steak/Lube. We went out to eat and get a few drinks before ax throwing and I highly recommend it. The building itself is kind of tucked away, but there's a decent sized private parking lot out front and we had no trouble finding a spot. I'm not 100% sure if this location is BYOB, but you can bring food/snacks in - check the website for details. Also make sure to check groupon for discounts and deals. They also make a big deal about showing up on time for your scheduled time, but they were running a little late for our session (10-20 minutes).The woman who ran our axe throwing was pretty cool and knowledgeable! She was experienced in how to teach people how to throw safely and effectively. They love axe puns here, which is fun. There's good energy. There are 3-4 axe throwing ranges in total in the back. There's a little bench with a barstools and chairs so you can watch your friends throw. The person running it also takes photos when you get a bullseye, as well as pictures of everyone throwing. They post them on facebook 2-3 days after your throwing. The event itself is fun - you get time to practice and the person running it has a couple of games for your group to play and facilitates a mostly friendly, lightly competitive atmosphere.If you don't buy all the spots for the time slot, you might end up with some other people who have signed up for the same slot, which is fine. My only complaint is that there was no host/hostess at the door to greet us and tell us they were running late or what was going on, or what to do. Someone popped their head into the waiting room/lobby after 10 minutes to tell us it would be another 10-15 minutes before our group got to go in. Additionally, the person running our group's ax throwing occasionally came off a little rude and awkward at some points throughout the evening. Overall, this is a great way to spend a few hours with your buddies or family and get some frustration out while learning how to do something different. It's a great, worthwhile memory. They also have pretty cool t-shirts for sale.

SO, I turned 50 this year, and for my birthday, we went Axe Throwing. (Yeah, I'm weird, so sue me.) Anyway, if you've ever wanted to do something unique, then COME ON DOWN TO CLASS AXE!!We had a two hour session that saw us split into teams and learning how to toss tomahawks with skill...mostly...okay, it took awhile, but we had lots of fun! Costs are about 30 bucks a person, you get two hours and unlimited axes, as well as fine teaching by the staff. It's a great place for team building, family outings and a way to cook off some steam.The parking lot is small, but not too bad, and their little place in the valley is a "blink and you'll miss it" location. Also, they have an Escape Room that you can try, which we didn't have time for, but it sounds like a blast. So, if you want to keep your skills "sharp", then here's the facts; spend some time at Class Axe!

We booked as a happy hour after work. Unfortunately there were only four in our group so we had to alternate with another group which felt disconnected. It was fun, but not the experience I was expecting. We will try it again with a larger group.
