Axe and Knife Throwing

I got to work on axe and knife throwing on Saturday at an SCA event. Oh how I wish I had my own practice area, because I'm right on the verge of improving. I can hit the target 9 times out of 10.  I just can't get much to stick. I have to work on the rotation.The highlight of my day was when I hit the target with a axe from 20 yards away and got it to stick. It wasn't a bull's eye but it was on there.

Axe Throwing

I'm happy to report that I threw an axe from 20 yards yesterday and it stuck! I'm sure that if I had a place to practice regularly and my own equipment I'd improve so much. With knives I stuck two in a row and I'm proud of that. I hit the target almost always but getting things to stick is another story. My aim is good. I need to work on my rotation.
