Came here with my son and had a great time. We had Sam as our coach and he was very helpful and thorough in his instruction. We felt safe and ready to have a good time. FYI - this place gets very loud with axes and knives being thrown so be prepared. Parking lot was small but it there was enough room in there with different parking options nearby. read more

We had a blast learning to throw axes! Love that we could bring in our own snacks and drinks. read more

My date took me here after dinner and I had a wonderful time. Selena was super kind and fun to work with, and helped me understand the proper techniques to throw, even if I was only able to land half of them XD. read more

Made a reservation with deposit to celebrate my partner's birthday with our kids on Sunday. Showed up to find the back door and front door locked, no lights on and people inside doing whatever they were doing. Waited a while...no one came to the door. It's very disappointing when you get super excited to try out something new but then arrive to see that no one was available. I called customer service and just let them know I wasn't impressed. It seems to me like the owner doesn't want the business. Not sure what happened here since there's some pretty good reviews before today. read more

We made a reservation for a lane a few days ago and then went last night for the first time. We had a blast! Our instructor, Ora, was awesome! He was knowledgeable and super fun! He gave us tips and new ways to throw throughout our time slot. He was the perfect amount of helpful and not invasive of our group. I knew I would enjoy our time but I didn't realize how much fun it would be! The hour and a half flew by! You can either reserve online for a lane(minimum 4 people, I believe) or you can chance it and walk in. The walk in price is cheaper than reserving. You can bring in your own food(or have it delivered) and non-alcoholic drinks. They have a fridge with waters and soda for purchase. We will definitely be back! read more

Great customer service. We had a company event and they serviced us extremely well teaching all the tips and we had a wonderful time. Highly recommend recommended. read more

We came here as a fun birthday activity for my husband. We did the walk-in hours and got there right as they opened, so we were actually the only ones, besides the staff. The staff are super friendly, Big Mike is fun and helpful. Tara is very sweet. They both were approachable and easy to talk to. I didn't quite know what to expect but it turned out great; they gave us tips on how to throw better and showed us some fun trick throws (e.g. underhand, double axe throw). This is definitely something we'd come back to do again. read more

Went as a walk-in with a friend, didn't know what to expect. I wish I had gotten the gentleman's name who helped us, he was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. He showed us how to properly throw, and would check in every so often to make sure we were still doing okay. We had so much fun, definitely going back with a larger group. 45 minutes was the perfect amount of time too, as our arms tired out. Highly recommend going! read more

It was super fun and staff was there to offer tips and encouragement. We kept the board wet. That said, you still need to be able to throw and hit the board!! read more

Bad Axe Throwing Fresno - Spraying water in between on the board keeps it moist so that the axes and knives will adhere. - Axe Throwing Near Me - Fresno, California

I experienced rude customer service while I was here. Incorrect hours and they overcharged our group. Was going to give it a second chance, but when we tried last Friday they were hosting an alt-right group that was shouting obscenities and spreading their propaganda. Business that support this type of behavior don't belong in Tower. *Update - lol at the business owner trying to save face. Don't call yourself inclusive knowing full and well the group you allowed to book your place. There's nothing inclusive about walking into chants of "FJB!" read more

I was here last weekend for a date night. It was super fun!! You get to throw for about 40mins which is plenty of time! I wasn't a fan of how small the space was. I was constantly afraid someone would walk behind me and get hit while I swung. But as the thrower, you have enough room. Just people standing around need to be careful bc it's quite tight to be "walking around". read more

So much more fun than I expected and well worth what you pay. The setup is fun, relaxing, and safe. I was skeptical before I went but now am looking forward to my next visit. The staff was helpful and courteous. A great experience with friends, but after a stressful day, it'd be a great way to relax solo, too. read more

This place is fun! We spent an hour here and it's $20 per person. We had a big group and they put us in two lanes. There was a waiver and a lesson before hand. Once you get the hang of it, it becomes easier to throw it. I preferred the yellow axe to the silver one. It was all preference. I equate it to bottle flipping. It has to be on the right rotation. In this situation, harder isn't always better. LMAO. It just ricochets off the wall harder. The staff were nice and attentive. We played a few games which made it super competitive and even more fun! You can RSVP or walk in. Pick your poison read more

Tara was the best host for axe throwing. She was hyping us up, gave us good tips, and was very friendly. First time being here and felt very welcomed and had a great experience. Thank you! read more

Awesome spot to try something new and have fun with friends! First time axe throwing and big mike was great at giving instruction and providing good energy. Def recommend checking it out! read more

Such a fun and affordable place to take friends or a date. I'm from Washington going to visit a friend who lives in Fresno, so we were trying to find things to do around town. Service was great and no reservations needed. They have 3 stalls open for throwing, but when we went on a Saturday night, there was no line so we got in right away. Throwing was a lot easier than I thought and the guy will come around to show you tricks and help give tricks on how to throw better. If you throw enough that your board cracks, let them know and they'll replace a new board and spray it down to make your axe stick better. I had a lot of fun and it was a great stress reliever! Definitely recommend!! read more

Big Mike was a great help with our throwing. Great coach. Come stop by and ask for big Mike. read more

Great hostess! Lots of fun! Came with a group and had plenty of time for everyone to throw

This place is great! Big Mike does an amazing job of teaching you how to throw properly so you can actually get the hang of it. It's clean, bright, and has great music. We made a reservation in advance and everything was ready right on time for us. Your throwing time starts right after the safety talk and you get a full 90 minutes of throwing- the perfect amount of time to try everything out. Parking is right outside. Big Mike communicated with us early in the day to confirm. Very well organized and seamless and a ton of fun! Highly recommend! read more

Great date idea the 45 minutes go by fast and if you're not used to it maybe stretch. We did a walk in on a Saturday after noon but maybe want to make a reservation for later times. The instructor was super informative and fun. Even if you aren't hitting the bullseyes and axes keep bouncing off he came over and gave us some really helpful tips. read more

We had our team event here and it turned out fun. Throwing axes is not easy but as you throw it, you learn that there's a technique to throw the axe. Make Sure to bring your own foods and drinks. Pizza is the easy and less messy. read more

We visited here on a whim tonight, to celebrate mine and my friends birthday with our husbands. We had a fantastic time and will definitely be back. Mike and Lunna were awesome, great coaches, hilariously funny and kind and made the experience even better than expected. read more

This is a Small-site but great for small private events, staff very friendly. Not much parking so carpool is a great idea

Jake was amazing and we had so much fun. Such a great coach with lots of experience. He made our night.

We came here with the kids on New Year's Eve and as scary as it looked in the beginning everyone ended having by a blast. The guy working was super friendly and took the time to teach us. He provided pointers, had a good playlist, suggested different games to play, and was very encouraging to the youngest member in our party. We went as walk ins and the place was not busy and it worked out perfectly for our party of 10 because we paid less as walk ins. We will definitely come back in the near future. read more

Way overdue but I finally got a chance to do the review! I've always wanted to try axe throwing and a friend of mine had recommended this gem to me. It's a nice little spot with 3 lanes and plenty of different axes to use. When I got there I was greeted by Alyssa who was a total BADAXE haha. She was great from the moment I got there to the moment I left. She taught me the basics (easy but fairly challenging), cool trick shots (satisfying to land), and she showed me a few games that are really fun! I definitely recommend this place if you have a birthday party or if you just wanna do something fun the night but I highly recommend Alyssa since she was super friendly, very supportive, and an all around great throwing coach. Side notes. Dont go looking for beer there, you won't find any. And tip your throwing coach, they definitely deserve it. read more

Jake was an awesome coach! Great date night, so much fun!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Booked knife throwing through Airbnb and our coach, Big Mike allowed us to test out the Axe throwing to get a feel of how different Axes and Knife are for throwing and we really appreciate it! Me and my friends were all first timers and Mike did his best to help us out. Because he wasn't watching us the whole time and going around helping others, we felt relaxed and comfortable to throw and just have fun. Of course he can be there to critique and watch but if it's a long period it can be nerve wrecking so Mike made us feel comfortable and was very kind to throughout it all. We definitely plan on coming back to get better! The place was small and the location was a bit tight but it's like a hidden gem of Fresno! Definitely a must for your bucket list and I'm glad there's even one here!! read more

I've been dying to try this out ever since I saw it on Instagram. I was so excited when I found out a location was opening here in Fresno. Definitely a different type of activity. I was intrigued & excited to try it, but also unsure of how much fun you could really have doing this. My husband & I had a blast!! We went Memorial Day when it opened at 6 pm. There were only 2 other people throwing during the hour we were there. It was about $40 for both of us to throw for the hour. It seemed easier for my husband to get his throws to stick. It did take some trying for me to start getting it, but eventually I got the hang of it & even hit a few bullseyes. It's actually quite the work out too, I broke a sweat & am a little sore today. But, so worth it! We will definitely be back! They have a league to join too. They also sell merch including axes. read more

Amazing first time! The coach & his wife were amazing, kind, & helpful. They played great music! had beverages in the mini fridge & a score board for you and whoever. The wait time is 15-20 min walk in not too bad! I'd come again read more

We held a larger event (around 40 people) at Bad Axe Fresno this week. It was a hit! Everyone enjoyed themselves, no one got hurt, and it was the perfect ice breaker event to get everyone mingling. Big Mike and Chloe were amazing!!! They felt like part of the party while also making sure we had everything we needed. Every single part of the process went smoothly thanks to them. I'll definitely keep Bad Axe in mind for future socials! read more

We loved having our event there. Tara was great. She was constantly checking o. Is giving us tips. We will definitely come back! We will recommend our friends and family to check this place out for sure! read more
