What type of axe?  smaller ones similar to hatchets you throw one-handed, or the double-bladed long-handled ones that you throw two-handed in an overhead toss like a soccer throw-in?  The big ones are more fun...  and I have tried that at a "practice range", years ago wayy up in the northeast part of CA, lumber country.  Said practice range consisted of a LARGE tree trunk section, tipped on its side with a target painted on it.  The bullseye is hollowed out so that a full beer can can be placed in it...  NOT during practice, that's a waste of beer.

During the contest at the county fair, that's where they load the target up.  If a thrower nails the beer-can bullseye, WHOOOOOOSH!

Like any other sport, I wasn't good at it, but I did hit the target occasionally and even made it stick a few times.  Of course, I was being coached by the county champion on just how to set up and throw.  Makes a big difference.

Geez, I hadn't thought about that in a longgggggg time...  I think it was in the 70's.
