its the opposite end to the flight

Come back max, all is forgiven

How do I throw a dart...ffs!!! Doesn't matter how you hold it it's all about rhythm and timing. Practice makes perfect.

Good places to buy from :

 

Tommy's darts

Darts corner.

 

Weight wise whatever suits you. I wouldn't want anything to thick personally but still use a quite heavy 27 gram dart.

 

Grip wise however you naturally pick them up and practice. Don't immitate some one else or else you will be shit. It's got to be natural.

Give me time im busy lol me and my big mouth, whatever tips you get they will vary from person to person but for me when i started at 17 and even at 18 ehen i played bristow i had a jocky type action being on 5.7 myself but over the next two or three years i ironed out my stance with your foot square to the oche thrn over time smooth my throw which came practice and match play so you can start there for now, and remember what dosnt feel right dosnt mean in aint, when you hit two treble twentys try and throw the third dart as smooth as you can because its easy not to.

With the weight its a wierd thing because not many pros use or dont seem to use high weights they mainly 24 and below, i started with 26 but mainly throughout i was 24g but each to their own.

Is the lighter darts so they are thinner and can bunch together better in the trebles? I feel as if I need more power, when I throw harder it effects my aim so slightly heavier me thinks :thumbs:

Struggling to reach the board are you peewee..lol

 

Funny how grip can make a difference then Brackenboy.....much like golf when a newbie grips the club the tend to want to hold it like a baseball which technically is wrong. I sort of do that as I've done it all my life and I started golf at a young age. Although I'll never get on the tele I've won a few things.

But I agree what seems unnatural can be a benefit if stuck at over time...?

So lets say you are just starting out its ok to try a few sets if money no object, got to ask is your board set up correct? Its so vital it is i.e. Height and distance.

I am starting out :laugh: I wouldn't say money's no object, the set I seen 26g is only £27 I think, I'll scrape that lol. Aye I've measure board, I'll double check when I get home.

:laugh: aye see, all the grip jibes.... Just f***ing throw it :D I think my grips all wrong, it's comfortable but using only 2 fingers basically, it leaves a huge gap for error. I'm gonna perceiver with 3 fingers me thinks.

You still talking about darts here?? Lol

 

Think this is where I must be going wrong cause I use 2 fingers too. It amazes me when your so close to a board that some darts end up miles away from where you were aiming.
