Target SCOTT WILLIAMS GEN 1 Darts Review

[@tywoodruff8578]

Thank you for another great review Darren! I have a set of Unicorn John Lowe that I’ve had since the 90’s. I like the shape, but don’t get as much grip as I like. If these were fixed point I’d be doing some online shopping tonight. For whatever reason, I’m just not that interested in Swiss…not sure I see the point (pun fully intended). May need to poke around and see if I can find something similar. Would possibly go ahead and bite the bullet on these if they were a bit cheaper.

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Thanks! Yeah I think the Swiss points still put a lot of people off

[@martinburch2416]

That's the kind of shape I like. Nice review Darren.

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Thanks Martin! :)

[@davidcummins1108]

Have been tempted recently to try a torpedo type barrel and I think I’ll take a chance with these if and when they come in 22 / 23g. Great review as always Darren

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Cheers mate! :)

[@robottiofficial5043]

Wow! Amazing video, bro. All these balance infos and close up on the grip and slow motions shots just absolutely ideal information i need because im thinking buying set of these.👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻 New subscriber 100%

Great video and video format just ordered them! Is it okay to put different branded shafts in the darts?

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Thanks 👍 yeah use any you like 😊

[@arundoyle7924]

@@DartsReviewChannel excellent thanks alot 👍

[@markbryant8321]

It's a good grip all over dart . Me front to middle. Had a go at back. Not to shabby . At all

[@TheBW_2]

Darts look great but we need the 50mm points to see how HIS fly! Hopefully Target make some in SP

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Its a neat clean looking dart but not sure a 50mm Swiss point is a good idea, may break too easily?

[@PimpSlapz]

Just bought 'em and they group very well! Got the 23g... kinda pricey, but worth it imo

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Great to hear!

[@markbryant8321]

Just a mention. I love my Gen 1 . All i changed was . Longer points . And indeterminate pro grip Tag . Shafts . . Hitting the spot . So give it a go guys ok

[@johnbrann75]

I was hoping you would review his darts. I throw John Lowe darts and these seem quite similar but with more middle/rear grip. I think I'll wait until a 21 or 23 gram set comes out but they do look good.

[@ant88310]

Would enjoy trying them out. It's not my normal preference, but you never know unless you try different things

[@DartsReviewChannel]

I think if you like that style is a nice one for balance, the sweet spot for me is not quite where I naturally feel right with but yesterday I gave them another throw and they were flying very well but again I was holding a little further up than felt natural but once I got into a groove with them they flew smooth and well :)

[@DartsReviewChannel]

@@ant88310 True :)

[@federicomiccoli641]

Great reviw mate! I’m throwing with target rob cross gen 1 23g and i want to try something shorter… can u say me if this shaggy darts could help me?

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Thanks! Its worth a try but I have no idea if it will help you or not.

[@michaeltrafford2367]

Great review again Darren - like the look of these but it's just the Swiss points that puts me off. Cheers pal 👍

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Thanks mate! Yeah a lot still are not keen on the Swiss points, I am still not a fan myself but can see some good reasons about them :)

[@thomasmurray7505]

Will you soon be reviewing the new Target Rob Cross Black Edition darts that came out the same time as these?

[@DartsReviewChannel]

I dont have any but they look good so I am sure I will get some :)

[@markbryant8321]

Dazz just got he's. New black 25 g what a dart. Better like a bolide grip sure this is of a bolide in first place my bolides I love. Lol you talk about grip omg . Shaggy gen 2 got the lot . I throw from front to middle mate . Not a rear player at all all the best dazzer

[@DartsReviewChannel]

They do look similar to one of the Bolides, sounds good 👍😊

[@calvinhewitt4337]

will wait for 23g version.sp just don't do it for me broke acouple points in 10 throws to expensive to replace those! great review mate thought you might had yellow shoes on or buzzy bee outfit for this one haha

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Only green will do lol😜

[@anthonynightingale6459]

£66 for basic looking darts is a rip off. I know target need to make the sponsorship money back but that’s extreme. Mission’s offerings seem to offer more visually for the price point. I’m even saying this as a target fan.

[@DartsReviewChannel]

I think so, but I am not entirely surprised by it.

[@edwardkiperman8436]

I totally agree!

[@thecrayondemo]

£35 all day long

[@edwardkiperman8436]

@@thecrayondemo That seems like the proper price point for these.

[@anthonynightingale6459]

@@thecrayondemo definitely agree as they seem to have Bolide levels of machining. They could even be a Bolide 2.0

[@anthonym3351]

Nice shape a bit different seems all top players have super slim darts these days. I haven't got any target darts since the swiss points came out, they're bound to snap

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Yeah there is not a lot use fat darts, some do though like Searle :)

[@jaydoyle7380]

Hi Darren, I ordered the Luke humphries TX1 darts in 22g now I'm just hoping I like the grip and balance. They seem similar in shape (definitely not grip) too these scott williams darts so if I like the Humphries darts these seem like a good grippy upgrade in future. I do actually own a 25g set of the scott williams darts but abit too heavy for me personally but will still compare both for in hand feel etc. They're out in 23g now so if I enjoy the humphries ones these seem very similar just a lot more grippy. Getting to my question lol. The 3 rings in black and yellow are they just paint? as I'd rather remove them too match better with any stem and flight combo and just be all natural tungsten plus I've become a fan of Swiss points (when they're in stock) they've won me over with them and the kflex systems lol :-)

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Yeah its just paint, should come off easily :)

[@JoetjiesPlace]

Quite nice... Would love to try that style... Nice colour combo...Thank You.

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Cheers! :)

[@andrewwickstead3802]

Looks a lovely dart…… maybe a bit expensive but a shape and length that tempt s me to have a go/look and never thrown a torpedo short dart…… no doubt they will be popular

[@DartsReviewChannel]

I think its cleanly machined and has an elegant look about them, pricey yes though :)

[@kevinL-tv9rk]

,ice lookin dart and ive been meaning to try out this kinda style but theres 1 thing holding me back; when i hold a short barrel dart the flight kinda touches my hand and messes up my throw so idk ... might just need another setup for a short barrel. anyway .. happy dartin ;)

[@DartsReviewChannel]

yeah I think its likely a problem if its not right for how you hold it, I know someone that likes it that way though but we are all different which is why its good there is so much choice to fine tune things the way we feel comfortable with :)

[@johncapriotti8894]

Great information, thank you

[@DartsReviewChannel]

No problem! :)

[@whodey59]

Not a great advertisement for Target Pro Grip stems. Had a few flights fall off. But nice review as always.

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Well its still holding the flights even now after playing with them for longer, was going to break it off but just left it so maybe it is a good ad for them if they are strong enough to keep holding them lol The rings are a waste of space though, they just snap straight away! Cheers!

[@rkisf90]

Been really wanting these to try out but that brand new price just hurts.

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Yeah think the price will annoy some but its not really unexpected, all players darts are getting pricey these days.

[@rkisf90]

@@DartsReviewChannel they are but it’s just disappointing. I’ll be checking eBay for a cheaper set but that doesn’t seem to work out well recently

Like the new beginning with the catchy music. Nice looking arrows but Targets are up there in price I suppose to pay the dart player and well as make money.

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Thanks! I have done those kind of intros before it just takes a bit more time :)

[@stevenwade5661]

How do these compare to John lowe phase 3 ? And if there's more grip at the middle rear, I'll buy they off you

Not tried the JLP3 yet so not sure.

[@andygorman5122]

Bit dear swiss point good or bad

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Swiss points still have a lot of divided opinion

[@BS-jn9kh]

I know SP is always adding to the price somewhat, but this dart seems fairly basic, so i just dont see the price point. This dart is 76,95€ here, which is very expensive imo, and its a similar shape and length as the Bolide 05, which is 41,95€. So if i were to want a SP dart, I would just buy that. Not my first time looking back at the Bolide series when a way too expensive newly Target SP Dart, that looks very similar, just released.

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Yeah the Bolide 05 are quite similar, may be better for me too as they have grip at the front :)

[@somanyroads74]

Not what I expected outta of these. Pretty sure these are different than what he was throwing in the Super Series last year. I was hoping for replica of what he used to throw with. I’m not a big fan of Target anymore but they are still nice non the less. I’ll possibly consider getting a pair if they offer 23g in steel and 20g in soft tip but probably not..I’ll pass for now and stick with my Viper Bee’s. 🐝

[@DartsReviewChannel]

I think he was signed with Super Darts before so might have been something they had for him?

[@certifiedsonny]

Looks like the old target bolide

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Similar I think :)

[@juleswinnfield6930]

Great review Darren, they suit your throw. Target overpriced again and don't care for the SP's either. If I bought these would like the option of using a Storm-like point in them. Cheers

[@DartsReviewChannel]

I was not too sure when reviewing them. But played with them for longer afterwards and got them flying really well but only holding near the middle. Thanks!

[@DusanMandicTK91]

Can they only be played with the Swiss points? Or can I put on any other point? Btw why are they called Swiss points? Are they invented in Switzerland? 😅
