Two friends and I spent an afternoon undergoing an introduction to the sport of Axe and Knife throwing.
As taken from https://www.bearythehatchet.com:
Rules & Safety
Is it safe? Yes!
You and your group will receive coaching from one of our experienced coaches. Each lane is divided by a fence to prevent axes from going anywhere but the target.

Closed-toe shoes are a requirement. There are no AXEceptions! We have shoes and socks for those who do not have any readily available. The charge for shoe rentals and socks for you to keep is $5. Shoes provided by our awesome friends at Coastal Sole.
Due to the potential dangers of axe throwing, keep your safety and that of all those around you in mind at all times.
Do not engage in any behavior which would endanger the health, safety, or well-being of any player, staff member, or spectator.
If you land an axe on the target, you must retrieve it before throwing another. No trick shots, tossing the axe and catching it, or any other dangerous movement with the axe. We are family-friendly, so please refrain from the use of profanity or abusive language.
If you’ve never heard of axe throwing, it’s kind of like the lumberjack version of darts. If you’ve never heard of axe throwing, it’s kind of like the lumberjack version of darts.
Beary The Hatchet Axe Throwing Co. provides a fun and relaxed AXEperience in a safe and unique setting. Our inspiration for the concept comes from our love for the sport of axe throwing and is based on the rich history and culture of historic downtown New Bern. Our space presents a modern take on the age-old sport and adds unique character and charm. We offer also offer knife throwing as an add-on!
OUR STORY
George and Kim Bessey founded the company after a fun date night of dinner and throwing axes. We loved it so much we knew at that moment that our beloved hometown badly needed its own venue! Kim is a registered nurse, and George comes from a background in food and beverage. We have three young AXEperts, Lilly, Liam. Kim grew up in Florida and New Bern, and George has lived most of his life here in Eastern North Carolina. We also have a phenomenal business partner in Shawn Stengele and his wife Audrey. Their young AXEperts are Shawn Jr, Cheyanne, and Alex!
We welcome all levels of AXEperience in a family friendly atmosphere for throwers 10 and up. We can’t wait to throw with you!
Will someone teach me how to throw an axe?
Yes! We will have an axe coach available for a brief coaching session at the beginning of your time slot. We will offer follow-up coaching, tips, and games throughout your AXEperience.
What do I wear?
Whatever is comfortable. During warmer weather comes sandal season, but but please remember closed toe shoes are REQUIRED. There are no AXEceptions! We have shoes and socks for those who do not have any readily available. The charge for shoe rentals and socks for you to keep is $5. Shoes provided by our awesome friends at Coastal Sole – CoastalSoleNC.com
What is the minimum age for hatchet throwing?
We recommend 10 and up. Sometimes if younger kids are strong enough, and more importantly, safe and well-behaved, we will make an AXEception.
Do you take walk-ins?
AXEsolutely! As long as we are not booked up! If we are full, just ask when the next available slot is. In the meantime, hangout at our beautiful 30 foot bar with draft beer, wine, ciders, and seltzers!
Are spectators allowed? AXEsolutely!
Do you have leagues?
Yes! We have leagues affiliated with the World Axe Throwing League!
Should we arrive early?
Yes, we recommend arriving 5-10 minutes early to sign your waiver and get ready. Your reservation begins promptly at the given time slot. Please call us if you will be late. We may not be able to extend your time, but will if we can. No price adjustments will be made for time lost due to being late.
When should I make a reservation?
Due to our limited space, we advise making your reservation as far in advance as possible.
Do we keep score or have official league rules?
You can keep your own score on the provided boards. We will go over games and league-style rules during your session. Just AXE if you have questions!
How much does it cost?
A regular one-hour session is $25 per person. We offer a discounted rate of $22 for current or former military members, first responders, teachers, and nurses WITH ID. We also have “Broke Axe Mondays,” when Axe Throwing is only $15 per hour.
