"Located just an axe toss from Coast Mountain Brewing in the heart of Function Junction, Forged Axe Throwing might be the most perfect representationof the "lumbersexual" aesthetic, if you judge by the groomed beards in the crowd. Participants laugh as they hurlhatchetsattimber bull’s-eyesat the end of each ofthree lanes separated by chain-link fences. AZen-like technique of gently releasing the axe rather than chuckingit seems toproduce the best results, though a tight grip when handling a hatchet is obviously key. After taking your Paul Bunyan star turn, follow theparade of the flannel-clad to one of thenearby breweries."
