Mobile axe throwing comes to Loudoun County

Axe throwing venues have been all the rage in recent years. People turn out with friends, pick up real axes and hurl them at wooden targets. Food and drink are part of the action and frivolity ensues. Now you can have that experience at home.

A new mobile axe throwing business has launched in Loudoun County. It’s called Primal Axe and they bring two axe throwing lanes along with high-tech video targets right to your home, business or event location.

“We are the only luxury mobile unit featuring top of the line projection targets that utilize a variety of games never before seen on traditional painted targets, including: Zombies, Connect 4, Tic-Tac-Toe, Duck Hunt, and more,” reads the Primal Axe website.

Primal Axe uses a 20-foot trailer that — besides the two throwing lanes — has room for multiple throwers, a secure throwing zone (so no axes go flying out of the trailer), fans and a sound system.

While this is the first mobile axe throwing unit we’ve heard about in the area, there are a number of brick-and-mortar axe throwing venues around, including one at the Autobahn Indoor Speedway in Sterling and also Axes & O’s in Sterling.

Meanwhile, a new axe throwing club called Elyisium Axe Bar is scheduled to open soon in Purcellville.

Primal Axe quietly started trying out its new trailer this spring, and is now ramping up business and ready to take reservations.
