I know I've seen a couple excellent low dart finishes on bull. Something a bit special about that.
Good arrows!!!! |
You can but I don't think it's ever been done in a professional tournament. Probably in exhibitions

Thanks JB
I'm sure I've seen it attempted alot of times.

I remember watching that in a golf bar where I happened to be at the time. I was the only person interested in the darts but everyone became interested pretty sharpish 
Nice one on the 9 darter mate! I've never come close but have got a 170 outshot to my name  |
119 is my favourite finish for some reason. Treble 20 - 19 - Tops. Thats the wrong way to go for it as if you miss the treble 20 99 is a bogey, but i just can't throw it any other way, it's like an ADD thing. 170's are bang on mate, 132 Bull-Bull-double 16 is one I've always adored as well.

I know what you mean. If I've got 101 left I'll always go for treble 17, Bull even though that's not the logical way. I always have gone that way on 101 and probably always will. I don't play that much at the moment though as I moved away from the pub I used to play for & haven't found a pub round here with a darts team.

I've had a board in my room since i was 12, just loved watchin' it, playin' it, the fact it's a true working class man's sport. I got really good at one point but every time I've tried to throw a dart in a competition my arms go, I just can't do it, I have so much respect for the guys getting up in front of the TV cameras and playing because as anyone who throws will know if your too nervous everything goes DD's to the sky.

It might be actually, I'm not sure 
501-171 (treble 19x3) = 330
330-171 = 159
159 - 57 = 102 (n/o with 2 darts left)
159 - 54 = 105 (n/o with 2 darts left)
etc etc. I'm pretty sure via that immaculate workings out on my behalf you need to hit a minimum of 3 treble 20's to leave you 150 as an outshot without needing another 60. B-B-B. Any insight?

I'm open to correction but i think the best you could do is just 1 treble 20. |
