Never heard of this craziness before,
Well the sport of throwing has been around along time with many different clubs. Recently axe clubs have been popping up all over the country and more people are learning about our sport.
Some of the clubs I belong to and am a member of:
IKTHOF [INTERNATIONAL KNIFE THROWERS HALL OF FAME] - WKTG [WORLD KNIFE THROWERS GUILD] IKT, AKTA, INSTINCTIVE KNIFE THROWERS, BLADE ACES Plus all the events, clubs and groups I have thrown with from the USA, Canada, and all over the world!

I Have won numerous quickdraw events, i believe last trophy count was 20, in many organizations and am considered one of the fastest in the world beating many very skilled competitors and losing to just as many!

What is Knife quick draw association and When will I get to do it!


Good question!

Simply put it's drawing a knife from a sheath attached to your belt usually at hip level and sticking the blade into a target the fastest from behind 3 meters.
Some of you out there may have thrown knives this over the years while camping or hunting, or seen someone do it in person, or maybe on online.
At a tournament or event that holds a fast draw competition you can watch and learn to throw many different ways and even enter to compete if you already have knife throwing skills. This is not a show up and do event if you have never thrown a knife but you do not need to be a pro to compete.

Our goal is to set up a set of rules that any event organizer can use and if you compete in any event through out the year and place 1st through 3rd-we only have first place 1st to 3rd as winners BUT if there are more than 40 contestants 1st through 4th get a spot in the finals,  at any of event we sanction you are qualified to compete in the finals held once a year! Where the event will be held is still to be determined but will more than likely change each year to a different host.

The idea will be to have small events and large events that are quick draw only and can be held one day or 2 if need be depending on the number of contestants and the number of other events is held a ta tournament.

The event itself will always be the same regardless of who hosts the event to qualify for the finals at the end of the year. We will be following the same rules no matter what state or country it is held in that way everyone is on the same playing field.

If you want to have a quick draw event that meets our rules just hit us up and we will gladly put you down and keep a list of the winners! 

If you host an event and there is 10 people or less then it is only 1st and 2nd that qualify for the finals 20 to 30 1st to third qualify.

No need to qualify more than once to make it to the finals! You can of course continue to go and compete at any event you want but for some people it is hard to get to more than 1 or 2 large tournament events a year which is why anyone we approve can host a quick-draw throw down event, you only need timers and to video all throws.

WHAT, COME ON!!

Some of you are thinking it seems easy but it can't be that easy right? Your right on both accounts! I have been teaching people how to throw quick draw just for fun and those who need to dial in their skill for tournaments for years as well as competing in them and being ranked as a professional I as well as many others can show you how it's done!

What Happens At a quick draw event?

  • Well its pretty simple, contestants sign up and they are entered into a random generator to determine spots based on their skill level.
  • This is the best and fairest way in my opinion, this way a beginner is not throwing against a pro multi winner for their first throw off!
  • It is double elimination meaning you have to loose twice before being eliminated.
  • Having the ranking system also adds to the excitement because you may have 2 of the best throw right after 2 beginners which means if you want to see action you better stay close!
  • The draw for who you compete against changes when it gets down to your second throw for elimination and there are 20 throwers or less which means once you lose as a pro or amateur your next elimination could be against anyone if there was only 20 to start with.
  • Excitement!! That's what occurs because you can never underestimate anyone ever regardless of how many times they have won or lost!
There are all kinds of tournaments and leagues all over the USA and internationally and my goal is to have sanctioned tournaments hold a quick draw event that adheres to the same rules for everyone so we can have a true international event to compete in against each other. You can come to play, or come to get serious and travel and compete around the world in the sport of throwing as welll as quick draw!

WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT THE QUICK DRAW ASSOCIATION

  • NO MONThLY FEES OR ANY FEES TO JOIN FOR ANY ORGANIZATION THAT WANTS TO HOST AN EVENT!
  • There is always an entry fee and we ask each event organizer to add to the finals winners money by saving a portion of the entry fee to go to the final boss!
  • THE FINAL BOSS? Hell Yeah!! The grand champion, the winner! The fastest for that year.
  • Each year you will get a trophy and money for being the fastest out there 1st through 3rd place winner! You will keep a championship belt that you have to bring to the next years final to either keep or reliquish to the new winner!
  • You have to qualify each year to make it to the finals this is a earned spot every year!
  • I want the first place cash prize to be something that inspires people to compete and brings people to the finals!
  • You do not need more than 2 targets and a timer system that records both times to host an event, you can record everything on a phone or camera your choice.
  •  It can all be done in one day! You can host an event anywhere you have the space and it does not take a full day to run! You have everyone show up sign up and they spend whatever amount of time you choose to warm up and if you have never placed before you will ranked after 5 sticks for time. your 2 bests times will put you in a bracket based on your speed, not ever competing before! There are some very skilled throwers who have never made it to an event and may practice this at home so it would not be fair to have themin the slower category if they are actually just as fast as the pros!
  • I want this to be an even playing field! This is a chance to test your skills, not win because you beat people who are not on your level! 
  • Women will have separate categories or you can compete against the men, your choice! 
  • You can have an overall winner and have a separte womens throw off the finals will be top mens and womens final boss.
  • You may be glad there are 2 categories because there are some badass women throwing quick draw and you may not qualify if it is up to them!
  • Quick draw can be a sepate entry from a tournament fee if you only want to do quick draw. Some people cannot take off for 2 or 3 days but one day off on a weekend is doable! So if you only want to do quick draw conatct the event holder and say hey I want to compete in quick draw only and they will let you know what the fee is.
  • AS A RULE THE FEE FOR QUICK DRAW ONLY HAS TO BE AT LEAST HALF OF THE TOUNAMENT FEE.
  • Look we want people to compete and have fun so the half of tournamnet fee is for a reason, they are only there for one day competing in 1 event so it is not fair to ask them to pay a huge amount just for quick draw. We want competetors! Lets keep the fee at a minimum of 20 though for quick draw only because we want a percentage of that money to go to the finals to bring people in.
  • Your house your rules as far as who competes as long as it adhers to the main rules.
I will have all rules available on here soon for everyone to see but if you want to host an event I will send them to you.
