2025 Readers Choice Winner | Boro the Hatchet Axe Throwing
About a year ago, BJ McKellar took a leap of faith toward a dream that began with a text message and a photo. Today, Boro the Hatchet, his axe-throwing business in downtown Statesboro, is more than just a hobby turned hustle — it’s a community favorite and an award-winning hangout spot.
Located at 19 East Vine St., the space is designed to feel more like a cozy lodge than a traditional rec room. This summer, Boro the Hatchet is celebrating its one-year anniversary, as well as its first-ever Readers’ Choice Awards: Best New Business and Best Place to Throw a Private Party.
