Celtic Axe Throwing @ Armadillo Den Austin

Fun experience at the Armadillo Den! It was super chill and a good time. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

We got in a little early, (hubby and I) and he let us start earlier than planned: the axe guide was amazing! He helped us by bringing out other axes, giving tips, celebrating our wins, it was everything awesome! Even the bartenders and gate guys (bouncers) were kind and helpful. We will def be back! But with a group!

Great experience as a first timer! We had a ton of fun and Mark was wonderful he gave us great tips on how to adjust our throws and made everything easy during our session!

We had a blast...the instructor was especially patient!!

Decided to take my fiancé on a date night and booked an appointment for axe throwing. Probably one of the money least-well-spent experiences we’ve had unfortunately, but it was ok for what it was. Here’s how it went: We couldn’t find parking and had to go next door to Moontower then walk over. After a few minutes searching, we couldn’t find the area and ended up having to ask the security guy in front of the Armadillo Den who directed us to a small enclosed area behind the pizza truck in the back. On the way back there we saw a sign which read $20 walk-ins for Axe Throwing and we figured they would accommodate this pricing ($30 per person online). The gal told us we’d booked online so we needed to pay full price. Didn’t make a fuss- just paid and signed the waivers. The night we went was super loud from the UT game plus music blaring and all the people in the AD talking and shouting so we were a bit distracted. The axe throwing area was kind of an unusual area (it had kennel vibes) but the overall experience was as private as could be for this kind of venue (the plus side was it was located in the back corner, out of general area). We were not very good at axe-throwing, though we got a few bullseye’s and many misses over the course of the 20 minutes we were there (we had booked for the hour, but honestly 30 minutes would have been sufficient). We’re not Olympic-champion level by any means, but this experience gave us some insight on our aim. If you decide to go here, my advice is to go on a weekday night when it’s quieter, go as a ‘walk-in’ (save yourself money!) and bring more friends for a group experience rather than a date night event. This would have been a lot more fun with a posse than just two people taking turns. Also bring closed-toe shoes or they will make you wear crocs.

Great instructor and knowledgeable. Had a ton of fun!!!

Never axe thrown and it was a blast. Brittany was amazing explaining the rules and the different games.

Tyler was 10/10. Taught me a lot

Tyler was fantastic! He really took the time to show us how to throw the axe and was very encouraging through the whole thing.

Tyler was great!
