Once you get a bit more confident you could try just doubles. Rather than just go at double till you get it, which can get frustrating, throw one dart then 2nd at next number including 25 and bull etc and see how many out of the 22 darts you get. That way its a quick way of getting better without making it a grind, which will come later when you set a single goal that you have to get. 😂

I agree it probably is better to do doubles to make it more accurate but at the moment it would take me hours to get all the doubles 😂

I have, like a lot of people I suspect, got back into darts due to a certain teenage player after 35 years! What helped me a little was to place a dart in the 60 and just aim at that. I managed to get 180 eventually this way, then removed dart and kept at it. Then over a weekend I got 3 180's so feel that helped, this was with about a month and a bit tho of starting to play again. I still use this as a practice routine once I start hitting my favorite 26 again! Just keep at it and have a break from 180 hunting so as not to get frustrated and remember to do your doubles practice.

It does feel like you've improved, scores are bad but a lot more darts are going straight. I also notice your draw back is a lot smoother now, there is still a lot of variation in your backdraw which is why you're seeing mixed results. Try to watch the video back and watch the throw for the good darts, some of them are pretty smooth and controlled, try to keep that focus and dont start altering your throw when you miss some. Throw every dart like it's important :D

Do you warm up first? Personally I play other games before going into a match of 501, partly to keep it interesting, but mainly to warm up. I'd usually have a few throws at treble twenty, then go into a game of cricket or Shanghai's. If I want to practice my finishing I'd play some 10 up 1 down, or 201. If I want to practice my grouping, I stick a dart from another set in the 20, and then aim at that dart's flight and throw my darts at it over and over again. Once I've warmed up, I play some 501.
@DartGuru882 ай бұрын
No the game you saw was just going straight in with no warm up - I’ll try that in the next video as well as putting a dart in the triple to see if i can follow it - that will be in the next episode I think it’ll be good practice

I would not recommend timing your journey in seconds but rather in amount of darts. Darts is also a bit of a ryhtm game and games like this where you rush yourself mess with that. Personally i dont go around the board but use a variation of barneveld's version. In my version you need to hit 3x (single is 1, double is 2, triple is 3) each target in order going from 20-19-18-17-16-15 and if you are skilled enough 3x single bull or 1 red. The reason i like it more than around the board is because you throw at the same target even if you hit a single which trains you to group your darts. With this schedule you also go for the main trebles you'd hit in a normal game (doubled is a different story, there around the board is fine). The goal here is to reduce the amount of total darts needed. In my head i also kind of keep track of how much i am behind if i were to hit 3 singles each time. Example: i hit 2 single 20 and a 5, i am now 1 point behind. Next throw i hit a 20 and a treble 19 and a 4 (missed 18s), i am now again on par as i completed 19 and 20s with 6 darts
@DartGuru882 ай бұрын
I feel like this is better for the people a bit better than me, I think if I tried to hit single double and triple it would take me at least 30 minutes + to get all the way around the board, it is definitely a good concept though and I can see why it would be really good for grouping and generally improving :)
@sebastiaanvandingenen14722 ай бұрын
@@DartGuru88 I didn't mean to hit double triple and single, I just mean to throw until you get 3 points on each target (1 treble or 3 singles or double and single or 2 single and a treble). Your goal is mainly to just aim for the treble until you have at least 3 points on each target

@@DartGuru88 So it would be like this: Throw 3 darts at 20 Hit 1 single and 2 randoms = 1 point Throw 3 more darts at 20 Hit a random and 2 single 20 = 3 points Now we move to 19 Throw 3 darts, hit 2x 19 and a 3 = 2 points Throw 3 darts, hit 1x 19 -> move to 18 -> get 3 points ...
work on your grouping ,throw the first dart don't matter where it goes then aim the next 2 darts at the flight of that first dart this helped me get tighter more consistent grouping. i also play 201 and try to check out in 9 darts this help with scoring ,doubles and the maths side of the game

When you draw back you should hold for a fraction of a second to control it. You currently aim and then kinda ruin it by making a very fast back and forward motion, use that draw back to slowly control the dart and really feel the throw

@sebastiaanvandingenen14722 ай бұрын
@@DartGuru88 I agree with Travis the throw itself looks pretty solid, as I mentioned in the other comment I think the unstableness comes from the very fast backwards draw which negates your aim. Even if it feels bad at the start I would recommend slowing down the back draw, maybe even aim with the dart drawn further back than you do today and I think you will see improvement. Try to aim for the center of the top iron and if that fails at first just try to aim for the big part of the 20 (choose a little dot as target, not the entire area). Don't focus on height but rather on throwing straight, height can be adjusted in how you hold the dart/how much power you use and doesn't have much to do with the throw itself
@phil36702 ай бұрын
Good practice buddy. Try to get your throw consistent, dont worry about where your first dart lands just try and get the next 2 darts to group as close as you can to the first dart. Once you get used to this you have a much better chance when that first dart does land in the lipstick. I hope this helps, stick at it mate you will get there.

Perhaps putting some challenges in there? Or a forfeit? If you fail to get all 3 darts within the triangle, you have a forfeit of some sort? Will give you incentive to really focus on hitting the small triangle area and an entertainment value for every time you miss? Just a thought, but i'm sure there are plenty other challenges you can do along with this!@@DartGuru88
