How To Play Darts | My Throw 2.0 with Raymond van Barneveld

My Throw 2.0 is back this week with Rod Harrington analysing Raymond van Barneveld's action

[@albernererhelge]

Definitely one of the smoothest and most natural throws ever seen on the tour

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Always loved Barney's throw, classic! :)

[@Lifeskeyishappiness]

So smooth

[@DartsReviewChannel]

indeed :)

Big Thank you PDC 😁😀👍🏼

Wish the legend a happy retirement !

[@georgegriffin1994]

And now his return 😂

[@Carlos.Radders]

Love these reviews Rod.. thank you.. been waiting for Barney's review too.. Legend! 👍

[@kevinVersus]

My throw is awesome, thanks for bringing it back. Love to see the broken down detail

[@amarokker]

I tried out this grip and instantly got a more accurate throw. Finally no wobbling and I'm able to throw the darts within a circle of 2 cm. When things start to fall apart, that's because I'm not able to throw so smoothly and relaxed as he does. But that's the key, relaxedness. Thank you for these videos.

[@dhinakaranchandran5888]

What a smooth action. Legend.

[@billkipper3264]

When I started throwing darts again after twenty years I watched all the pros. To me, RVB and Phil Taylor have the best form and were the one's worth emulating. Especially Barney's beautiful, relaxed throw. If I could only throw half as well.

[@LOLMAN9538]

Can't forget about Price or van Gerwen

[@User.099]

Exactly, my throw is similar but it’s about consistency

[@michaellinner7772]

One of the first things I figured out was the more you can minimize extraneous movement the more accurate you will be. It's simple logic to eliminate as many variables as possible. Barney's stroke typifies this idea.

[@oldschoolwc]

the grip he demonstrates is nothing like when he actually throws a few seconds later. "Secret dart grips lol"

[@thorben754]

One of the greatest of all time!

[@marcberresheim3582]

i love watching him throwing darts, in my opinion the best throw ever !!!

[@TheOnlineBusker]

Great series!

[@chunkyboi3882]

Love this series

[@colinwolf7785]

Great video as always. I would like to see Rob Cross or Daryl Gurney next

[@happyhurricane5921]

They listened to me. I needed Barney. Now I need Gerwen and Cross

[@medinabello19]

His throw is like silk, smooth.

[@DaanV9]

Do Michael van Gerwen next!

[@coun7less944]

best throw ever imho

[@andrehof7876]

should not be attempted, horrible throw..massive movement and great power very nasty stance etcetc

[@larsbutschle6813]

@@andrehof7876 of course terrible throw... thats why he is world no1 for so long

[@larsbutschle6813]

And there is no movement at all

[@andrehof7876]

@@larsbutschle6813 He throws "natural"which is good..but not preferred to teach others..his stance is very bad. Think it derives from playing as a little kid..however he has a solid speed, and that seems to be favorable over a softer throw. for him it works..as long as he does not think about things...bam bam bam..

[@lovethedarts9522]

What an eye opener, barnie probably has the smoothest throw of all the professional dart players these days, but 3 fingers on the point, that is unique, most advise a 3 three finger overall grip or 4 at the most, I'd like to see mvgs throw broken down, and Daryll Gurney's.

[@ianfortune1064]

I hope more of these this year

[@Destruction-1990]

I also use the 8 Flight System, it´s really awesome !!!

[@casgrondman7251]

Barney is back

[@jackryan6747]

That Ernie Els comparison is bang on

[@Rins180]

Could you maybe do a my throw 3.0 because i would love to see some more of these videos, they are awesome ❤️

[@Metallniete]

Also there are "new" players with different throws that haven't been talked about here.

[@jaksyngrant3281]

BRING THIS SERIES BACK

what's the name for the flights he uses? Or point me in the direction where to buy them online?

[@ushook]

Smooth as the Sky in the American West

[@gofly5831]

What is the position of the wrist/forearm in relation to the bicep, should it be lined up straight or slightly to the left

[@toondekwaasteniet1687]

What is the name of the song called at the beginning?😊

[@laserbeak3551]

Barney, Anderson and Hankey have the smoothest throws. MVG throws harder and more straight forward so the chance on wobbling of the darts is smaller

[@edskate3]

Do it with John Henderson!

[@rambolino1134]

what is the name of these darts? i like the system of the flights!

[@TedBarton91]

Barney’s immediate straight foot thought was Roland Scholten, my man

[@Flipperafc]

Still the best throw in the game, period.

[@AB-gr3fo]

Smooth trow he say. the last trow, Look at how his dart is wobbling. and then hit the board 4:28

[@DaanV9]

Thats because of the flights, but the throwing action is really smooth

[@dolfvanrookhuizen4793]

[@marthao5799]

I have needed to find a better grip and something like his may be the one, and I like a forward grip

[@frederico9288]

Legend, hope his fairytale happens, would be great

[@patrickdekoster9880]

My heart is broking peace champion i,m never vorget you 😥👋

[@TomasMisura]

I consider RVB as the best trowing player ever as throwing like him is extremely difficult. I know it requires a lot of practice but whenever i see him playing the darts i feel extremely incompetent regarless my experience but it motivates do not give up that and keep practice....

[@avery_nicegirl9]

It requires a lot of practice. My throw is very similar to Barney's. You have to practice a lot to find the perfect timing to release the dart. However, when I find the perfect timing, you feel like hitting everything you are aiming at. And it looks so smooth but sometimes I tend to just releasing the dart instead of throwing it.

[@TomasMisura]

@@avery_nicegirl9 I have had a problem with my elbow that tended to bent to one side. I have fixed that and in good days I throw at least similiar to I would expect to throw. even tons and maximums have returned back. but in bad days it's still horrendous. like i said it's neverending work to stand in front of dartboard and dart by dart improve myself :)

[@avery_nicegirl9]

@@TomasMisura sorry to hear from your injury. Same here, sometimes I feel like hitting everything but on the other day I play so bad. I have been struggling with Dartitis btw for 5 years.

[@TomasMisura]

@@avery_nicegirl9 More than injury i simply was not able during aiming phase to keep hand in straigh line and when I've thrown the dart sometimes I hit myself with hand. It was very frustrating and spent a lot of time to fix it...

Strange, the way he shows his grip and the way it looks when he throws are way different. ??

[@johnnypayares4830]

[@vilimiryordanov8502]

I also agree! When watching him throw, his pinky is definitelly not on the point!

[@gredangeo]

@@vilimiryordanov8502 Pause right at the end of 1:42. Looks like his pinky is on the point. He only said that when he releases the dart, he lets go of the pinky. Which you can see during 1:43 to 1:44.

He is using his old Unicorn darts as far as I know. He plays much better with them !

Thank you. Was just thinking that with the Target Launch around the corner, he has new ones. You’re right . I‘m also concerned that Taylor shouldn’t sign with target - his phase 5 were the best for him

[@FanBoyStudio369]

So far, that's still Target actually! He can't use the other darts that is beside Target while his darts sponsor remains like that. Let's make a petition of him to use Unicorn darts again!

Have you analysed any throws? Phil Taylor throw is amazing every single aspect is unique and he has to make sure that every dart thrown is the same. Tough to do.

[@littlelew5754]

Barney is a dinosaur

[@thewelshwizard640]

His elbow has dropped a lot in the last 3/4 years, and he doesn't throw firm enough for his action. His old throw 2005-2012 was the best around. I reckon he's contemplating for the darts he uses these days. Shame!!!

[@thewelshwizard640]

2012*

[@63OBH.Rodgauner63]

when asked how do you hold the dart, barneveld holds the dart like he supposedly always holds it. but when he throws, you can see that his index finger is pointing up and his pinky isn't touching the tip of the dart at all. bad analysis👎🏼
