Any time you play darts with others, you will probably see some behaviour and/or attitudes that may not be the most helpful to your game. From faulty strategy, to throwing darts, to blaming others, most of us have seen it all and we decided to write most of them up for everyone to enjoy. Most of us have been guilty of a couple of these at one time or another and if you find that you’re still doing any of the following, stop it now!
- Do not keep a board at home. It just gets in the way of the important things in your day like hitting the couch, surfing for free porn or emailing your friends to tell them how good you are at darts. If you already have a board up, throw no more than 9 darts at it 3 times per week and always at the 20s. Don’t worry if you don’t hit any because you know that you usually do and that you would have if you had been “really trying”.
- Do not, under any circumstances, change your grip or stance or lack of follow-through. Deep down you know that you just need to throw more darts more often and that you’ll be fine. The fact that 99% of the top players you’ve seen have worked on these things doesn’t matter. You know that you can be just as good as them.
- Play darts at a pub or Legion and only on league nights, but don’t get there too early and never spend more than 10-15 minutes warming up by throwing at the 20s. Don’t concern yourself if you’re not throwing well, because you will later (as you normally do). No, instead spend that time talking to your teammates about your singles win last week over the inebriated 60 year old woman and the impressive double 1 that you hit on your 52nd dart. It’s a win, you can tell everyone, and worth the same as the 15 darter that some “A Player” threw that night.
