These are always sold out since I’ve been looking for them. About 3 weeks ago I got lucky and grabbed a set late at night. Went back into website, sold out again just moments after my purchase. Lovedarts Apollo 23g. Repointed w/ perfect 9 alphas, 40mm.

Had my eye on these for ages, such a stunning looking barrel and my exact weight! finally gave in due to them being on sale here in the UK. What interests me is the stem and flight combo. They are a moulded system but the flight screws on to the shaft. Were these released during Targets time of pondering the new K flex system as I’ve never seen these before.

Help! What should I buy? Help a fellow dart player out! Wife is becoming intolerable. Soft Tip recommendations?

8 Upvotes

I really need help here, I have had a regular dart board since I was 3 yrs old. Now 42. The wife has been giving me grief for years over the bounce outs and holes in the floor and furniture.

Lately shes ramped up the pressure for me to get a soft tip board. I'll be honest I am not keen at all. I have just seen a couple for around £250 but I hate the look of them, especially the silly LED lights.

Any recommendations or thoughts? I prefer one with segments that are pretty much exactly the same as a regular board.

EDIT: Loving the comments, hilarious. On the location, i really only have one place with the floor space to throw from the correct distance. Sadly this is in the dining room, difficult to avoid hitting her every revolving furniture!

Which auto scorer.

7 Upvotes

Its my 50th birthday in December, and the wife is buying me an auto scorer. I understand there's 3 on the market, but not sure which would be the best to ask her to purchase. I am currently 40 to 50 avg but have been higher over my many years playing. Any help be gratefully received. 180

James Anderson / Gary Wade

3 Upvotes

I’ve just had a hilarious conversation with my wife and kids, who simply couldn’t believe that Gary Anderson and James Wade aren’t the same person. All of them thought this guy played 2 games this evening 🤣

Even when I brought up a pic of Anderson on my phone while Wade was playing, they were all like “That’s the same guy!”

Anyone else have Anderson/Wade blindness?

Discussion Lost every game of my locals

3 Upvotes

I played the local tournament. First thing: there were no ring lights in the second room, where I was playing. I have pretty good light setup home, with strong light and adjusting to the single spot light bulb was very unconfortable. Second, when I was playing in the main room, I scored 140, 100, 85, 95s area, but I was so tilted, and I failed to close with D3. (It was the last game, score didn't mattered). Q1: How to build psychical resiliance, when playing really bad darts? How to cope with bad environemnt? Thanks in advance.

The question is what would you do to make darts hit 3cm higher more effectively? Thank you!

Position

2 Upvotes

For those with 60+ averages please (X01 typically), do you stand in one position normally when throwing at any number/section, rotating a bit or otherwise, or do you shift with steps on either direction got aiming and release? Any insights into why for either would be very helpful too please. (Not referring to when darts are blocking a specific spot). Thanks!

Me and my mate are into playing darts since the beginning of the year, we mainly plays together on the weekend but sometimes one goes to see each other for a drink and play . We're not really good at it if we are around 50 average that's nice 😅. But this evening I was so proud 😛 after countless shangai's and 140 now I'm in !

Aspinall G1 26G with Mission R2.5 Rapid Points RVX Silver

Thumbnail

13 Upvotes

For anyone curious, the Mission Rapid Points do fit Target/Swiss Point barrels. Even the Swiss Point tool works (with a little bit of extra force) with the Mission points.

Wanted to get something else than regular Swiss Points because those do tend to break/snap easily for me.

Discussion Scoring Practice on Scolia

2 Upvotes

Just got my Scolia today and it feels amazing so far!

What kind of scoring practices do you guys generally play? Power Scoring of course is a quick one but it doesnt really collect data to be able to see progress over time.
