The late great Kyle Anderson threw his darts at an odd angle where the tip would be pointing towards the left of the dart board. Best footage I've seen of it is his legendary 9 dart finish against MVG. Unorthodox but effective. RIP you massive legend

[@GeniusDarts]

Yeah that’s true. Gone too soon.

[@mcfcguvnors]

Ceri or Kerry Morgan i remember he had a bizzarre technique

Fun fact, Tom Heldt, the number one is NO dartitis counter and he is hell of a player, constantly placing around top 16 in the dev tour order of merit and multiple time regional champion in germany

[@GeniusDarts]

That’s amazing that it’s not dartitis related. How on earth does one settle on that throw otherwise? Incredible but clearly effective for him. Be good to see him make the big stages.

Absolutely despise his throwing motion. No need for it 😂

[@ashleystone4266]

Love the video, these videos always crop up from time to time and no matter how many times I watch some of these throws, I'm still in shock by how these people have become pro. Mr Burnett's has come from dartitis I think, if you look back over the years he didn't have that 'sass'. Keep up the good work bud. 👍🏼🎯

[@GeniusDarts]

Agreed and the last one shows that more and more of them are popping up.

[@AntonSlavik]

The commentary made it all the funnier. I've only ever thrown a few hands of darts as a child in a pub (almost killed my aunt), and I want to try my hand at it again. Seeing these eccentric throws gives me license to experiment

[@GeniusDarts]

What this proves is no matter how daft the throw, it can be effective. So go crazy.

[@77Fortran]

'Dennis Smith, sweatin' up early' is a memorable piece of darts commentary that has stuck in my mind. Beautiful throw though.

[@GeniusDarts]

Haha outstanding commentary.

[@no_professional12]

I remember one commentator after he hit a good shot saying something along the lines of 'And Smith is not going to throw in the towel here. Mainly because he needs it so much' 🤣

Going to try a few of these out tomorrow during my practice for a laugh, although the Bobby george one might come in handy as my sight is getting worse in my right eye.

[@ScratchyBaws]

Just throw left handed, doesn't take long to master with practice.

[@danielfernandez7752]

Dude your sense of humor made this video extea great hahahaha

[@GeniusDarts]

Thanks Daniel!

[@fenrisianwolf9229]

Great video! I will never understand how people manage to hit anything with so much needless moves that induce hit area variance. Still, works for them! I guess that practice makes perfect. :D

[@GeniusDarts]

Thanks! And agreed. If I try and mimic any of them I’m all over the board.

[@drb5538]

How you can have a list like this and NOT have Shayne Burges on it is beyond me. His throw is the definition of unorthodox, practically dragging the flight across his jaw and cheek owing to how close to his eye the darts get.

[@philparmenter53]

Ceri Morgan who used to wave the dart all over the place before letting go.

[@GeniusDarts]

Good shout that.

[@acp9767]

Was like he was chucking a grenade

[@mjd4174]

You can see similar finger wiggles as Mensur, on several top level snooker players as well - many have a little finger wiggle on their rest hand. Rhythm and habit I guess.

[@GeniusDarts]

Yeah these things come in over the years I think.

[@Zarkava8]

Burnett doing an ice skating move on the oche.

[@GeniusDarts]

😂

[@DUMPSTERDARTS]

I'm left handed and right eye dominant so I'm guessing that what Bobby George was doing, lining the dart up with his dominant eye. I have also tried this and have no idea how he can throw like that, it's so uncomfortable lol. Good vid!

[@GeniusDarts]

Yeah I tried it and barely hit the board. Feels so unnatural.

[@trevorkearley8783]

Not only does Bobby George throw from his left eye being the dominant eye and right handed. But so does Gary Anderson and Phil Taylor. But they both throw from the middle of their face or right eye. As for Christian kyst and mensur both had dartitis and that is how they got over it. It is not that anyone had a weird throw but it is whatever works for them

[@anmanm2645]

@@GeniusDarts Try slanting or tilting your head , im the same and it worked for me.

[@dazuk1969]

The thing with Bobby George is he used to dart himself because of the angle he threw them. The first dart used to cover the the T20 if he hit it. Like this dude said, I am surprised he did so well...but hey, whatever works right.

[@DUMPSTERDARTS]

Anyone know of any sighting techniques for opposite eye dominance? I kinda just line up to the side and adjust my head lol

[@mjd4174]

As a duffer darts player with bone frags in my elbow, I can identify with Stompe's "practice" throws.. I do it to make sure I can extend my arm without pain LOL.

[@GeniusDarts]

I know a few people that also do this. Think it’s more common than people think

[@barryevison5942]

Colin Monks throw was a classic, what with the mouth and the leg kick. A bloke on our team had the leg kick too and we called him Kick-start! It was a great social distancing measure in its day too, you'd never want to be to close behind him on his throw! I recall Bobby George (right handed) also saying once that his brother, who threw with his left hand threw with the exact same style on the other side of the face! Must be hereditary? Lol Stay lucky people ;-)

[@GeniusDarts]

That’s unusual about Bobby’s brother. But must be hereditary.

[@teejay6063]

😂 "some kind of voodoo." This is good, thanks. I'm gonna try underhanded. See how that works.

[@GeniusDarts]

That’s illegal in darts.

[@tonyska]

Ceri Morgan had one hell of a strange throwing action.

[@ZaphodTHEBeeblebrox]

the last one is quite beautiful, like a dance!

[@GeniusDarts]

Yes and they still go in the treble 20. Amazing really.

[@misfit2022]

I have always thought Jelle Klaasen has a slightly unusual throw but he looked great the other day and hardly missed a double

[@GeniusDarts]

That’s true. Looks very forced.

[@misfit2022]

@@GeniusDarts But until recently had a PDC card forever and looks like he is on good form so clearly works for him.

[@torstenscholz6243]

Yeah, that triangle-shaped throwing pattern Jelle does is rather unusual and pretty unique, but it works and actually looks quite nice.

[@williamreynolds1957]

[@krisorgan]

My favourite dart throwing action is Mervin king. I love his silky smooth action and the way he spins the dart as he pulls it back and then releases. The worst has to be number 3 in this video. If ya jockey ya might as well camp out for the night. My god.

I throw like Bobby George and actually get on alright. It's surprising how easy it is with a bit of practice. I don't average like a pro but I can get 180s etc with it. I also feel it's a great dartitis counter, as its never given me that hesitation like other throws have.

[@GeniusDarts]

[@paulanthony5274]

@@GeniusDarts I wonder how these players ever found out that the uncanny way they throw works for them. They'd have to be a time where they transitioned into it but how?

Kist's mouth movement has always reminded me of King hippo from the original punch out for the NES.

[@GeniusDarts]

I can’t say I know what that is 🙈

[@GeniusDarts]

Oh wow. I need to try that. Was it good?

[@dannymerrittmusic]

I always assumed Korte's throw was a sight thing, to help him focus on the board with his throwing eye

[@GeniusDarts]

Could be that in fairness. Just looks like it’s to keep a short transition and less movement when getting the next dart

I used to play darts a lot and my mates would come to my place and we would play for hours. One of my mates realised I did something when I threw my darts. He put me off with one word; That would was"breathe". He had noticed I held my breath as I threw. It was just larking about. He had a really weird. He would have the dart down level with his belt, he aimed at this point, then lifted the dart up to face level and threw his dart. I got my biggest finish playing against him. It was 164. My biggest in a league game was 126, it was the highest in the league that season but I had share that with another guy who had the same finish.

[@Ima-hoot]

One explanation for Bobby George’s throw is he’s right hand dominant with left eye dominant ! There are players who have opposite hand and eye dominance

[@anotherwolff3650]
