I never envisioned myself enjoying throwing axes at giant wooden target boards, but as I sent the hefty item whizzing through the air, I was exhilarated.
Tension left my body, I forgot about some of the stresses weighing on my mind, and all I wanted was to smack that bullseye with the glinting blade of the axe.
Axe-throwing centres have risen in popularity in recent years, especially with stag dos and hen parties, though it's not something I'd ever thought to try. I've never been into activities like paintballing, axe-throwing, or other potential sources of pain.
