BARBOURSVILLE â Tickers & Timbers hosted its first axe-throwing tournament Sunday.
People ages 12 and older could enter for $25 each. The double-elimination tournaments will run each Sunday until the league begins March 31.
âThere was a man who just came in today, had never thrown before and he ended up doing it for fun and then winning first!,â said co-owner Tonya Perry. âSo itâs not out of the realm of possibility that you may be a good axe thrower.â
The upcoming spring league is affiliated with the World Axe Throwing League.
âWe will do a winner of our in-house league, and so whoever is the winner of that league, which lasts about eight weeks, will get the next season paid for, which is about $150. They also get a T-shirt, 10% off merchandise and can come in and throw for a reduced cost.â
