Post; Knife throwing and/or tomahawk throwing


Which do you do?

I do both, we have a dead stump we set up on a metal rack and we toss hawks and knives at it for a while.

But archery requires a less skill than hatchets or knives. You were talking about archery as an art (I know you said it was a sport, but still), this my friend is art.

I started throwing knives when I was a youngster and I guess it stuck, no pun intended. It is relaxing, challenging, and fun all in one. I started with a one turn close throw and worked up to three turns, that is about as far as I got and be accurate and assure a kill.

I used to throw tomahawks for a while. Then I stopped and probably fixing to start again.

I enjoy knife throwing. Im not a regular at it but its fun. I was watching someone throw a machette once. Amazingly it worked. It was really neat to see.

I don't do anything of both, but:
