Logger Heads

Logger Heads is a Free-for-All minigame in Mario Party 9 and Mario Party: The Top 100. Its name is a pun on "loggerheads," a former term for stupid people.

Introduction
The players approach the stump and lift their axes in preparation.

Gameplay
Players try to be the first to split the log that the Whittle puts on the trunk in half by quickly moving the Wii Remote (or pressing in The Top 100). Occasionally, the Whittle may put a Bob-omb on the stump instead of a log, and players must hold ( in The Top 100) to duck. Failing to do so or chopping the Bob-omb causes players to be stunned for the next round (or the current round if all players are stunned). The first player to get three points wins, and the minigame will immediately end; this means that the other players will be ranked based on how many logs they have chopped.

In Perspective Mode, this is the second minigame played, and the player views the minigame from behind their character.

Like 10 to Win, Snow Go, and Pizza Me, Mario, this minigame ends when one player reaches the goal.
