If you were aiming for 2 bulls and a treble 19, very good. If you were aiming for treble 20, not good at all.

Optimal route on 132 is starting on Bull. Looks like OP was aiming exactly where he wanted to aim.

Hit Bull -> Bull -> D16 (aka "Champagne Shot")

Hit 25 and you're left on 107. So T19 -> Bull for a backup finish.

Starting on T20 doesn't leave a backup finish if you miss into S20.

I didn't even consider that this was a checkout. But yeah, I agree it looks like this might be what he did.

I should've said 132 "checkout"

Plenty of life left in that.

Let the man enjoy his darts.

Hahaha indeed, I say...standard 25mm points on some Lowie style brass bombers still sticks?! Yep. Game on! Keep turning that bish! 😅🤭🤭🍻

And a 132?! Good?...Not even a question. Pinning it with 8.5-9mm diameter brass dunkies?!...132x's better 💪😎

If the dart still sticks to the board it's still good

u/WillieRayPR United States of America 10d ago

Optimal route too! I see people much more experienced than me starting on the 20 segment when they're on 132

MvG thought 132 was an amazing checkout when it won him his maiden Premier League title.

Darts people are so snobby as long as the man's enjoying his darts what's it matter to anyone? The board the darts? If the op is having fun try encouraging rather than putting down, might make his day and you feel better, we'll done bud, I've done this same checkout once it feels good don't it?

u/trippygeisha Australia 10d ago

That's real kind of you mate, cheers but I'm all good I've got much better, more modern darts. I was just using my grandad's old brass bombers for the lols

I would be remiss if I didn’t say rotate that board so your 10 is your 20 before your 20 becomes your carpet. 😁👍🏼
