Signing Up: I was admittedly annoyed in the beginning, as the paying/sign up process seemed a bit annoying at first, but it wasn't terrible. I was still limping along a real P.O.S. smart phone at the time, so the premise of trying to use it and its limited battery life was irritating, but they had a pretty easy workaround. Keep that in mind if you'd like to avoid using your phone. Also note that they have a cheaper option for those looking to just observe and not actually throw. Throwing: The throwing areas are all nicely sized with seating areas that offer plenty of space without too much overlap with other people in adjacent throwing areas. The place is actually much bigger than it initially seems due to the layout. The trainer who initially explains all the rules was very helpful with demonstrating different throwing styles and scoring options, was personable as well, and periodically checked in to see if we had any questions. Bar: The bar is well-appointed with a rather long list of canned beers. No glasses, however, and the prices will add up quickly on you if you have a bunch. I imagine it is NOT BYOB anymore, given that there's a bar, so ignore that if you see it in other comments. Also- they have menus available for restaurants which will deliver, and I believe some of them may even offer a discount for delivery to Stumpy's, so ask Stumpy's which one(s).

I've been here twice now, once years ago and once just this month (July 2026). After going…read morerecently, I decided it was time to write a review! Ownership has switched hands, and I believe I had a group on both times I went, if you're looking to save a few bucks. My only complaint (at all) would be that it was a little bit warmer than I would've liked, especially once you're moving around and actually doing any sort of activity. Now that that's over, let's talk about the good parts! The axe throwing is super fun, and we all enjoyed it after learning about the rules and safety tips then learning how to hold the axe correctly and throw it, and we continued to get pointers and help as needed if we were struggling throughout our allotted time. All of the stuff we encountered were friendly and personable. One great thing that we learned is a newer offering is that the pool tables, darts, and cornhole is now free! As in, pop in and buy a beer or a hard seltzer for a drink after a rough workday and relax and unwind with free activities in a clean indoor space! We will definitely be returning to take advantage because while I LOVE axe throwing, it could get expensive to do every week. The pizza place in there is different than it was the first time we went. And, it was actually not open when we went at 1 PM on a Saturday, which was fine for us because we had already eaten and had dinner plans later so we were not there for food. Our understanding is that it's a one-man show so there may only be pizza/the restaurant open during busy hours, as opposed to every time Montana Nights is open. Something to keep in mind if you're thinking about eating while visiting.

I'm so in love with you I'll be your saviour, steadfast and true I'll come to your emotional rescue" (Jagger and Richards) A professional organization I belong to was scheduled to hold an axe throwing party/charity fundraiser at Pine & Iron in Hartford last night. But two and a half days ago, they contacted us to cancel because they had closed their doors for good. We didn't want to cancel the event, so what were we to do? Well, Montana Nights came to our rescue and 20 of us had a blast. Our Guardian Angel was manager Carolyn, who worked in a slot for our group, arranged an instructor, pizza and sandwiches from Square Peg, and drink tickets from their bar (beer and axes, what could go wrong?). Anyway, we had a freaking blast at Montana Nights. Our instructor Kyle was great. He gave us a safety talk, demonstrated one hand and two hand throwing techniques, and broke us into two teams for some axe flinging fun. We threw at a conventional bulls eye target, an unconventional bulls eye target where the center moved around, and Tic Tac Toe and Connect Four variations. I threw ten axes in warm ups, and then 20 axes in two ten-frame 4-person team contests. I stuck one out of ten in the warm ups, just one in Game #1, but improved significantly by sticking 4 in the second game. I even had a center Bulls Eye!! By the way, the food from Square Peg was great - lots of different pizzas, grinders cut into fours, and a big salad. Thank you Carolyn and Kyle for saving our event. It was a charity collection event where our members donated new clothing, toys, and household supplies for Madonna House in Norwich, CT. I would love to see Yelp incorporate more of some sort of charity collections at our events. Sort of a "Pay It Forward" philosophy. Everyone can afford to bring a few cans of soup or tuna to donate to a group that needs them.

It was not very busy which benefitted us greatly as we got more one on one attention and training. They have 2 size axes which was perfect for my group. I chose the lighter one while everyone picked the heavier. It's about 10 feet to throw so just the right distance. You can pay $3 & bring your own alcohol (in a can, not hard drinks). That worked out perfectly! Only draw back is its a bit hard to find since entrance is in back of building. But once I was in parking lot, I saw the sign Definitely going back again!!

The workers there are super helpful and nice making it a good environment to have some fun at. Great experience and I definitely plan to come again since the prices are reasonable!

I want to say they had about 6 lanes for axe throwing? Could be totally wrong. A staff member spends the hour with you, but kind of in the background, they're not annoying and just lingering. They show you safe and proper techniques for throws, and then just step to the side. After some regular throws we were taught some trick shots, and then played some games. I wasn't thinking much of axe throwing when it was mentioned as a birthday game plan, but it was actually a ton of fun. For all my competitive athletes, this is the place to go. I would definitely return again
