Backwoods Axe Throwing

Bars & Taverns

Pick up an axe and try something new! Axe throwing is all the rage, and you can try it in Murphysboro, IL.

We are an indoor axe throwing facility, equipped with eight axe throwing lanes, and a bar. We will provide you with everything you need for an unforgettable experience. We host group events, or have walk- in axe throwing for smaller parties (although reservations are recommended). With us, people can celebrate special occasions, join our leagues, or simply enjoy an outing with friends. Axe throwing is booked by the hour, with a one hour minimum. If you are looking for something new and exciting to do in Southern Illinois, then you have come to the right place!
