Some More Darts Technique Tips
For the best results of improving your
accuracy also ensure that you also:
• Use your back foot used as an
"anchor”
• Experiment with your front foot, even
bring it round as far as 90 degrees (the side of your foot against the oche).
• Your head is still
• Your body is still
• There is a smooth release of the dart
•
You follow through fully after release and finish up pointing at your
target-just like this
Darts Performance Improvement Tips-Which is my dominant eye?
If you are right handed then usually your right eye is the most
dominant and vice versa. To find out for sure try this test:
1. Point at an object a few metres away and stare at it.
2. Close your left eye if the object you
are staring at stays still you are right eye dominant. To check, close your
right eye and the object will appear to jump to the left. For left eye dominant
darts players the opposite will happen.
Darts Performance Improvement Tips
Aiming your dart at the target (the board)
is similar to aiming a gun at a target. If you sight the dart with your
strongest eye, imagine the dart has a tiny telescopic sight on it and this will
give you a path for your hand to follow.

Darts - 501 Rules
1. Aim of the game
Each player starts with 501 points. The
number of points collected while hitting a board with a dart is subtracted from
the given player's points. The winner is the player who scores exactly 0 points
that way.
It is a double out game, which means that
players must hit a double that makes their score exactly zero to win the game.
2. Bust
In case of a bust the player's score from
the previous turn is restored. There is bust if one of the following events
arise:
The player scores more points in the active
turn, than his current score (subtracting would result in a negative score)
The player has 1 point after subtracting
(you cannot score 1 with double out)
The player has 0 point after subtracting
but violates the double-out rule
3. End of the game
Players continue playing until one of them
scores 0 points in total. The player who does so, wins the game.
If none of the players gets to zero in 20
turns, the player with the lower point wins.
If the scores are equal after 20 turns, the
game will continue for another possible 10 turns.
During these extra turns, the player who
gets to zero obviously wins. A player with lower score any time after the 20th
turn also wins the match.
If the scores are
equal after 20+10 turns, the match will end in a draw.
Rules for 301 dart
Scoring
The red circle in the middle, made of hard
wood, is called bulls eye and worth 50 points. It counts as a double.
The four green fields surround bulls eye
are worth 25 points.
The numbers 1 through 20 placed around the
board are nominal values for darts hitting the respective fields or sectors.
The two larger fields of a sector (green
for the 20 sector) are worth their nominal value as denoted by the number ring
surrounding the board.
The outer thin ring closest to the actual
numbers is doubles, and worth double the nominal value of their sector.
The inner thin ring is worth three times
the nominal score, so the highest possible score on a single dart would be
triple 20 (the small red field halfway between the number 20 and bullseye) that
is worth 60 points.
The black area outside the double ring is
considered off the board and scores 0.
Score keeping
All players begin with 301 points, and the
aim of the game is to reach zero as fast as possible.
The sum of one round of up to three darts
will be withdrawn from the remaining score. That is, you do not have to throw
all darts in a round, though normally you will do it unless you reach zero and
thereby finish the game.
The first player to reach an even score
between 2 and 50 inclusive and then scores a double to reach exactly zero
points is the winner. (Unless someone else did that earlier)
Players getting a
negative score or reaching exactly one point will lose all points scored in
that round and the game will continue with the next player. The same goes for a
player reaching zero without scoring a double with the last dart.
Choosing the Right Dart
First, choosing a dart is registration. That’s just a long way to say
“fit”, as the dart’s shape should fit the hand so comfortably that the darter
never has to look at it, and is never tempted to change grip in the middle of a
game. When picking up a dart, without looking at it, the barrel should
immediately fall into a comfortable position in the hand. Some groove,
scallop, or band of knurling should provide a grip that is identical, every
time you pick up the dart. Everyone is a little different: different
sized hands and fingers, plus different skin textures. There are
thousands of dart barrel designs, each one fitting a slightly different shaped
hand and grip.
To check this, lay a few different darts on a table. Look away, then reach down and pick up a dart. Immediately, within a second or so, there should be what I call an “Ah-Ha!” moment. The dart should just easily fall into a comfortable grip without thought or a lot of manipulation. If the darts doesn’t have that instant comfortable feel, keep trying darts, until you find the right dart to fit your hand.
When “throwing darts”, the idea is to just throw your fingertips through a spot on the board.. the dart just goes along for the ride. Choose a dart that is so comfortable that you never have to think about it.
The dart should have enough texture so that it will not slip between your fingers, even with the lightest grip. The dart barrel should just gently rest on the fingertips.
Test this by holding a dart as though ready to throw, at roughly eye level. Now gently move the hand back & forth, as though practicing the start of the dart stroke. Gradually loosen the fingers. The dart should not slip until the fingers are actually opened away from the darts, as in a throw. If the dart still slips while in a firm grip, the darter will have a tendency to squeeze the dart too hard.
Such a too-hard grip will result in a wobbly throw, as the fingers & thumb cannot then release all at the same time. A tight grip will always mean that one or more fingers will push the dart aside during the release.
The dart should be held in the lightest possible grip, just enough to keep it from falling out of the hand during the stroke, it should not have so rough a grip that it sticks to your fingers. On a hot day, or during a hot game, fingers might become moist. If a dart barrel has too much grip, it will feel sticky, and not release evenly.
Test this by squeezing the barrel, then let go. If the dart feels “tacky”, there is too much grip for your skin texture. Try to find a dart that is easy to hold, but will not stick to your fingers no matter how humid the day, or if your hands become sweaty at the end of a hot game.

History of Darts
Darts sport began as training in the
martial arts, (well, the martial art of archery). Darts began in Medieval
England. Historians surmise, because they don't know for certain, that those
teaching archery shortened some arrows and had their students throw them at the
bottom of an empty wine barrel.
The fact that the bottom of an empty wine
barrel was used is a clue to how the game developed into a pastime. It is
thought that the soldiers took their shortened arrows with them to the local
drinking establishment to both exhibit their skill and have fun at the same
time. When the bottoms of wine barrels proved to be inconvenient or in short
supply, some inventive dart thrower brought in a cross-section of a moderate
sized tree.
The "board" provided rings, and
when it dried out, the cracks provided further segmentation. This cracked and
dried board began to evolve into what we think of as the current dart board.
A game as fun as darts could not be hidden
from the upper classes, and they soon put their own stamp on the game, the oft-married
Henry VIII was reputed to enjoy the game immensely. So much so, that
he was given a beautifully ornate set by Anne Boleyn.
Darts Rules
Following these rules will allow you to
play in most competitions without mishap.
1. To start the game the captains of the
opposing teams toss a coin to decide who is to "bull up" first.
2. "Bulling up" is when a member of each team throws a dart at the bull in the centre of the dartboard. The person with the dart closest to the bull gets to choose whether their team will play first or second.
3. The player stands up to the line on the floor and starts throwing their darts. No part of the foot or footwear may be over the line. In darts "on the line is out". Stay behind the line.
4. All games, except special promotional games, must start and end with a "double".

4. All games, except special promotional games, must start and end with a "double".
5. The Chalker or Caller is the person who
records the score of the game and will write the score achieved on the board
beside the game. They will calculate the new score and write it for all to see.
6. The Chalker may tell you the remaining score needed but must not tell you how to score the necessary points, e.g. "44 left" as opposed to "Double 20, Double 2".
7. If a dart falls out of the board before the score is called it will not be counted.
8. You may not use unfair tactics to disadvantage your opponents, e.g. excessive talking, heckling.
9. The decisions of the match referee are absolute.

Bristle Dartboard
Bristle dartboard
is usually made from sisal fibers or boar bristles, and they have the longest
life, because the bristled construction allows the dart board to be
“self-healing,” in that when the dart is retrieved the fibers return to they’re
original position, and only the tiniest hole is created. Small bundles of
sisal fibers of the same length were bundled together.
Dart Types
There are many different darts wooden darts, brass darts, nickel/silver
darts and tungsten darts. The most popular dart for league throwers is the
tungsten dart. The high-density of tungsten and tungsten resists wear allows
barrels to be slimmer, for tighter groupings, minimizing bounce-outs.

Darts Poetry-The Love Of The Game
There are those who play darts habitually
to pass away their time,
And those who play because of the beer, -
The whisky, - the gin and lime!
Then there are those who have set their sights,
On trophies and championships, -
And not very ofton between the throws -
Does a pint touch their lips!
Some play darts for financial gain -
as well as fame and glory! -
Some play darts to forget their woes, -
But, - that's another story!
There are many who play to improve their skill, -
And here's good luck to them all, -
May they never give up practising, -
For that's how the mighty fall!
There are many reasons for which we play, -
And some, - we may not recall!
But, - those who play for the love of the game,
Enjoy it most of all.
