Heber Hatchets to open Pocatello location

It’s not generally recommended that you throw axes in a room full of people, but that’s exactly what many in Pocatello will be doing once Heber Hatchets opens its doors.

Of course, those who come to the “axe throwing” business will be tossing in caged in lanes, for their safety and the safety of those around them.

“People will be able to come and throw their axes and have a great time,” owner Travis Wilcox said. “We’ll be able to about 45 people in here, I think, throwing.”

The Pocatello location will be Heber’s fifth.

Once open, it will feature several throwing lanes, a soda bar and offer services to groups of all sizes.

Wilcox has targeted April 12 for the grand opening but said it may get pushed back, depending on how long it takes to finish the remaining work.
