WHAT AFFILIATES ARE SAYING
We have been members of WATL since 2017 and value our membership greatly. WATL has helped Far Shot grow the axe throwing community in our areas, and allowed us to hold tournaments. WATL has given us the ability to give customers peace of mind by showing that we adhere to high standards.
