xe Thro Co, 4428 Convoy Street, Suite 310, recently previewed its new state-of-the-art axe throwing facilities with a media event. It looks dangerous, but it’s actually a sport. Jimmy Rose, founder and general manager, started the company because he fell in love with the sport and wanted to create a safe place for people to enjoy themselves, learn new things and develop new relationships – while throwing axes. “People can reinvent themselves with new experiences and social activities to do with friends and family as an alternative than going out and drinking,” Rose said. “I wanted to create this environment to bring people closer together on another level.” Never thrown an axe before? No problem. Coaches teach customers how to throw safely. Visit axethroco.com.
