lksopener 105 Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've took note of them sites, cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bracken boy 584 Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 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 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bracken boy 584 Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I feel as if I need more power, when I throw harder it effects my aim so slightly heavier me thinks 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...? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its so vital it is i.e. Height and distance. I am starting out 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just f***ing throw it 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
