The Horse's Axe McKinney

Once you enter The Horse’s Axe you will check-in, fill out a safety waiver, and watch our Safety Video. Then our axe coach will provide instructions on the proper throwing technique and how to use our projected target system. Your group will have your purchased time to play through our different games and have an axellent time. Once your time has ended we will take your group to our photo booth for a group photo! Axe throwing is a lot of fun & we hope you will have a great time.

We highly recommend making a reservation in advance either through our website or call. We do accept walk-ins but activities are subject to availability.

Nope, but you can bring back your Horse’s Axe! Most of our guests take home an Axe (aka The Horse’s Axe). We have a variety of Axes at different prices.  The Bronco is only $30 in store or discounted when you book online in advance.  Once it’s yours you can name it, you can decorate it (handle engravings available,) and you can even put a diaper on it (we also sell axe sheaths).

Return with your Horse’s Axe every time you visit to throw at a discount.

1. You must be fully clothed (Naked people not allowed). 
2. Wear closed-toe shoes (If we can see a toe, you don’t get to throw). 

If you forget, we do have shoes that you can rent!

If you are looking to get The Horse’s Axe look we sell punny t-shirts, flannel shirts, hats, and more. You won’t want to leave without some Horse’s Axe swag!  

We are a bar!  We sell alcohol!  That being said, we do welcome all ages as long as a parent or guardian is included in the group.  For ages 7 and younger, we have a foam axe (aka a Pony Axe) they can throw. For ages 8-12, axe coaches will determine if a child is safely able to throw an axe.  .  If we determine it is not safe, we respectfully ask for the parents support in our decision.  If they cannot safely throw, they can throw a Pony Axe.  We love kids!   We want to keep them safe!  We are not baby sitters! We want the WHOLE family to have fun.   We can help with the fun, but it is up to the parents and guardians to keep an eye on their kiddos.  Under 18 cannot be left unattended anywhere in the venue.  Please comply with our age requirements.

Yes and yes, our number one goal is safety. We require all axe throwers to fill out our axe throwing waiver, wear closed toe shoes, and watch our Safety Video. An axe throwing coach will provide instructions on the proper throwing technique.  Each axe lane is equipped for your safety with floor mats, no-bounce back borders, end-grain targets, and floor-to-ceiling walls between each lane.
