The Call of the Lone Star

As a former professional athlete turned travel writer, I’m always on the hunt for the next adrenaline rush. When I heard about Lone Star Axe Throwing in Arlington, Texas, I knew I had to experience it for myself. The idea of hurling axes in a Texas-themed saloon was too tempting to resist.

The weight of the axe, the focus required, and the exhilaration of a perfect throw were unlike anything I’d experienced before.

The staff was attentive, ensuring that everyone was having a great time. They offered tips and encouragement, making the experience both fun and educational.
