Title: Darts... Post by: Johno on Friday, December 9, 2005, 16:52:34 im playing tonight with some mates at the pub. i have a dartboard in my room but i picked them up today thinking all would be good but im crap.
reminded me of someone on here saying they were a good darts player!? and i couldn't remember who. Title: Darts... Post by: Northern Red on Friday, December 9, 2005, 16:55:38 I'm quite good, I've got the nack of it somehow....
I'm just too short, so play for treble 19's rather than treble 20's :D If I get to a finish of doubles tops, I'm stuffed :D Play for 32/16 as your exit/checkout (what do you call it?) as double 16 and double 8 are among the easiest checkouts to make and if you hit 16 you only need a small adjustment for double 8.

Title: Darts... Post by: Onion_Jimbo on Friday, December 9, 2005, 17:24:44 johnno do not even attempt to play until you have your 4th pint in you. then you will be in "the zone". "The zone" only lasts for 2 more pints so get as much in as you can then.

Title: Darts... Post by: Johno on Friday, December 9, 2005, 18:14:18 sorry. i try not to. i admit im crap and we're playing for drinks, so if i lose and lose badly in most games, im gunna be in debt.
Title: Darts... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Friday, December 9, 2005, 18:32:20 OJ speaks the truth.....darts is all played in the mind, a classic example of the inner game.
The best way to get rid of the tension in the arm is by drinking....but the optimum point varies from person to person....for me its just before the end of the third pint and lasts to about the same place on the 4th pint at which point, my focus goes. I have been known to turn out in the Old Town darts league. Title: Darts...
