With the depth of competition in the game today, I think it's going to be difficult to break Taylor's record, just for the fact Humphries/Littler could average really high on their way to a quarter/semi final, but get stopped by someone who just plays that bit better than them. I'm not saying it's impossible, but anything is possible. Great video 👍🏼🎯

That amount of difference (3 points per throw) is too small to be worth switching about with. People do this in the beginners league where I play, but their calculations are so bad that it massively negates any such minor gains gained by throing for 19s if one calculates to an optimum standard. What is more, throwing for 19s often leaves players on more difficult finishes at the end which they are not experienced enough in to know all the set ups, thus lessening their chances even more so. Of course, you can play 19s and do good calculations and set ups with a bit of thought put in, but 19s makes it a bit tougher. At the point when you are throwing 26 vs 29 (it's not difficult to work that original 3-point advantage out) by going for either target, that 3 points' difference is not going to make any serious impact. And as soon as the darts start going a bit straighter into 3x20 = 60, then that 3 points is reversed anyway, which also increases to 5 points if one goes into the treble. For sure, sometimes 19s feels easier to hit, and a treble 7 feels like a bit of a steal, but it still makes sense to go for the most points more often than not. Same goes for leaving a 170 or a 167 finish if possible rather than a 171, 169, 166 etc. Obviously the chances at beginner and amateur level are slim, but you have a chance to finish, at least. It's better to have the aspiration and intent to make a big score than think about minor gains from missing the intended target.

Can u do a video on callen rydz plz 🎯

I think he's got a point about the boards, I previously owned an Eclipse HD2 and after 3 years of moderate usage (30-60 mins per day) it was in rather rough shape, there were large bundles of fibres protruding from the board in every number segment. I since replaced it with a Red Dragon NPQ (I got lucky and got a triple core one) and it self heals a lot better and is still in great shape after a few months of usage. However every time Simon plays I still see very visible damage to the boards, and although it isn't as noticeable as on the Unicorn boards, it's still obvious that his points do damage the board. My gut says that the PDC just didn't want to get into a confrontation with the players, and although I'd say Simon's points are obviously a lot worse than any other player's, I suspect they didn't want to single him out either. The Winmau boards do seem to play better so I don't see why Simon still has to use such aggressive points, IMO there's still an argument for doing something about it.

Almost 15k! great job buddy - best Darts content out there...

Love all these vids 👏👏

In 2023, the 1st year with only pairs modus, all teams used the same template. France v South Africa was aesthetically very pleasing.

Unicorn boards are garbage!!!!!

Unicorn boards are crap, tho

Yet another case of the damage that can be done to the integrity to athletes/sport from the political influence of the relationships between sports league officials and equipment manufacture/sponsorship $'s.

The points dobey used where made with diamond coated needle files. Not alan keys. Good vid though

I had a unicorn board some years ago and thought it was crap ,got a winmau now and it has lasted much longer.

Unicorn boards were always garbage

Kudos to James Wade who married one of them!

Darts can be a strange sport sometimes… just like with any other sport

😂. Eh, cant piss on the building, Rowby. But a suspension? Cmon. A fine woulda been good.

He isn't actually Austrian,

Taylor is simply the best!!!!!

About time someone acknowledged the genius that is Phil Taylor

His style is ridiculous

who gives a toss about your fucking 15000 when all we want are the girls back on stage!!!

Littler has about 36 years to do it before he retires.

Littler or humphries could do it if they stick at it

Taylor is simply the best !

I think the record is beatable but the consistency needed is not something I've seen in any of the modern greats, Taylor was a machine

It will never be beaten. 109+ avg in every match is almost impossible to beat

You get someone to put the bet on for you and then pay them a percentage. Thats what im guessing anyway

Old fashioned time to move on from walk on girls. The senior tour is dragging darts back to the dark ages.

Walk on girls were cheated out of jobs by far ugly feminists who were jealous of them.

B R I N G B A C K T H E CLA S S Y W A L K O N G I R L S. OMIT THE TITTY SHAKING BOOTY BOUNCIN' CHEERLEADERS.

BDO didnt understand its changing place in darts. Both sides have a place in the sport witn the BDO being a proving ground before moving on to the PDC. Or for players falling off the tour to rebuild confidence!!

Think Matt Porter needs to grow a pair and not give in to the woke environment.

Don't mind the walk-on girls but I prefer the cheerleaders

Im surprised the scummy BBC didnt have walk on drag acts.

It takes away the feel of the walk on like van gerwyns wouldn't feel the same with a girl standing behind him doing nothing

Its a joke the same people who advocate for equal rights and job opportunities for women were the ones who took these beautiful girls jobs away.

about time they sorted him out couldnt happen to a nicer fella

PDC needs to bring the girls back as a volunteer gig. If a girl volunteers, they get their Instagram and Tiktok advertise during the walk out. Anyone who dosent like the walk on girls, has to argue with the volunteer girls and not the PDC. If no girls volunteer, then no walk on girls.

Bullsh*t, they were NEVER controversial. Another stupid video from this plank.

i remember him trying head games in the bdo a few years back, bad apple.

Another great deep dive into this incident. The dra are incompetent. Jack Main is innocent.

Seems theres an issue at the modus as this isnt the first one!

Seems match fixing and Modus go hand-in-hand at times.

Serves him right to be honest.

Another tweet of mine involved in a Darts World video. I tweet too much 🤣 Good video mate

Proves that dart players are corrupt and can't be trusted. Players throw games and we wouldn't know

Absolute rat 🐀

What a sad waste of a promising young talent…

Love the face reveal

He plays in doncaster at a tournament every now and then. Everytime ive spoke to him hes seem a really good lad. Hope he can sort it all out and get back to playing again
