Axe Throwing Centers in West Virginia

In West Virginia, the tradition of throwing axes is rooted in early settler and Indigenous practices, where axes were essential for survival and defense. The modern sport of axe throwing began to gain traction in the early 2000s, following the rise of urban axe-throwing venues across North America. By the late 2010s, West Virginia embraced this trend by establishing dedicated throwing centers in cities like Charleston and Morgantown. These centers blend the state’s historical heritage with contemporary entertainment, providing a unique social experience that connects residents to their past while offering a fresh, engaging recreational activity.
