Game Play Rules
Games will be played with tournament axes (4″ blade, head weighing in at 1.6 lbs, with a 16″ straight handle)
Each player will play 3 games/matches per night against different players
A game/match is 3 rounds
Each game/match consists of 5 throws per participant. So each participant will get 15 throws per game.
Whoever gets the best 2/3 matches wins the game. Don’t worry if you lose the first 2 rounds – we always throw the final 5 throws of match 3 regardless.
All scoring is based on where the majority of the blade lands and stays in the target; Once the axe has stuck in the target the majority of the blade is measured along the side of the blade at the surface of the target
The axe must remain in the target for the throw to count. If it falls out, then the throw will be awarded a “0”. If a player can grab the axe prior to it falling they will be awarded the points for the throw.
When the game is tied after 10 throws, additional (non-scored) throws will be taken to determine the winner.
