Our Mission
The great work coming out of this organization sprang from the minds of Austin and Alisha Shepperd. Both leaving for the Army strait out of high school, met in AIT (yes an AIT marriage lol), served as combat medics. Austin was deployed to Iraq during the troop surge OIF 06-08. After Austin was medically retired and diagnosed with PTSD by the VA all their plans changed. The struggles that resulted from all this were difficult to bear to say the least. Addiction felt like the answer until divorce came knocking at the door and was answered. Austin had pushed away all he loved and the demons inside were winning the war within. After a one on one with God Austin knew he Had a purpose but was t going to find it unless he was sober. The VA sent him to get help and he has never looked back. After rebuilding their family the couple started in a new direction, TOGETHER.
“When those difficult days come, and they do, you need a positive outlet that helps to settle your mind, change your focus, and surround yourself with positive people.“ -Austin Shepperd

Our Mission
We focus on making the maximum positive effort for our community. We are here to help Heroes such as those that serve as veterans, law enforcement, fire, and Emergency Medicine By exposing them to axe throwing and to provide opportunities for them to compete by gifting axes🪓, tournament / League entries, offset travel costs, or sponsor departments and or individuals to throw at their local venues. Those Axe life coaches that support the movement to help these heroes have a special place in our hearts as well. Thank you all for your sacrifices.
Please support our page as we grow this idea into something great. We are veteran operated and found that axe throwing helps with our PTSD.
