Darts Practice -- Steve Beaton talks you through his practice routines

[@nickriley3850]

What's with all the haters on here at the end of the day he has won more than anyone else on here has. I've met him and played him, the man is a proper gent and is a former world champion.

[@therebel4332]

Yup. He plays the game for the fun element in my opinion doesn't concern himself with winning tournaments, its a love for the game rather than an obsession.

[@az77-mhz64]

This guy is superb when he's on it.. And his technique is awesome... Horses for courses but listening to his tips and techniques has improved my game massively... In fact I'd have to say a certain technique I've learnt from him has helped my game more than watching or listening to any other player... Wish we had KZbin 20 years ago! Bit late for me now but I've finally nailed it! And loving darts more than ever!! Cheers Steve!

[@techn9nekaliko]

how old r u , its never too late taylor is 54 i think . keep at it man never give up on ur dreams

[@AlonsoRules]

Taylor started his career when he was in late 20's - I'm thinking of giving darts a go, but there's nowhere for me to set up the board :(

[@silvermediastudio]

Which technique has helped you the most?

[@nathan2497]

Always liked Steve Beaton very good player and he has one of the smoothest throwing actions in Darts👏👏

[@ronaldtallett1781]

a true Ambassador of the game humble in defeat aswell as gracious in winning and enjoys life

[@DartsReviewChannel]

Very interesting! Look forward to seeing more. Cheers : )

[@bigups43]

This guy's eyebrows are a force of nature

[@DublinWarrior1]

Can you imagine this was a Justin Pipe video,my god it would be going on for hours.

[@marcoaerts3178]

One of my Heroes......So many years competetive and still a normal pleasant man

[@ronaldtallett1781]

hes a great guy was at my wedding in 1985

[@paulwoods9204]

Beaton is world class, he has proven that, when he is in a rhythm he is like the Andersons and the Lewis's, he will knock 180's in all day. He is still a dark horse in competitions.

[@mattysowls]

one of my favourites steve beaton really lovely bloke

[@DarkManEll]

Great video! Good to see how the pros do it.

[@mattysowls]

former world champion, more than you'll ever get

[@lewisgreen2957]

He seems to have been around forever!

[@jimmydinulovic2001]

Thanks for the great idea's mate!

[@livefreeordie7209]

Great guy, great player

[@1leef2]

Ive watched this video about 10 times now, them eyebrows seem to keep growing!

[@archiesimpson7668]

Scott Waites, Stephen Bunting, Wesley Harms and James Wilson are setting a good standard in Pdc now especially with the grand slam of darts coming up soon which Wilson isn't in or Bunting but I'm sure they will become great players

[@garyprimmer5127]

nicest throw in darts

[@LukePettit]

Steve Beaton - 18th all time money list

[@mrindecisive100]

Top man is Steve.

[@alexbennett5724]

His eyebrows are legendary

[@jamesdoyle3885]

Omg I would be there for a week trying to hit 20 in a row

[@R3DNEWS]

The double hands is good but miss the odd numbers, you don't usually finish on odd numbers so you put 30% more time into even numbers instead of odd numbers.

[@DavyJonesYourGuide]

Steve my hero! :D

[@Stevieboy74]

What he's lost in mullet he's gained in eyebrows ;-)

[@tobybostick5570]

Iv'e been practicing 3 to 4 hours a day for a couple of months. Watched this video,decided to throw my dart's in the trash.

[@z.squads8818]

Why ?

[@tobybostick1463]

@@z.squads8818 I'm practicing right now lol.

[@misfit2022]

31 years now. That’s a bit special.

[@adjustedjohn]

ok time to practise my finishes. starting at 41 3 darts. And 20's. 3 in a row to start lolllll!!

[@somebose7395]

The bronze addonis

[@WillScarlet1991]

Where's his perm gone ? :(

[@GerryDT]

Nice guy, you can read this if you look at his old darts videos

[@gemsdiamond2002]

I didn't realise there there was a time limit and considering Beaton's results earlier today, he definitely needs to follow a better practice regime!

[@ohsheelamakeme]

Thanks.

[@mattysowls]

pompous? are you ok hes one of the nicest men you could ever wish to meet, does loads of charity work, 139 is nothing try hitting 164s for fun T19 T19 bull!

[@MaxJaMaija]

Keep complaining abt Beaton, guess none of you guys will ever be listed one off the 10000 best in the world

[@BoJangles3105]

Age doesn't come in to it, if you know what you're doing!!!!!!!

[@moorzymoores]

Seems decent lad

[@RaabStephan]

What are you guys using to hold the dart board up on the wall?

[@lovrozaninovic6512]

A nail.

[@RaabStephan]

@@lovrozaninovic6512 looks like a little more than a nail. There's a black strip right behind the back of the board that seems to be holding the board.

[@CoCLord]

Two nails

[@matthammond1797]

see he is using a blade 4 bdo board, so much better than the PDC shit

[@MB1876GG]

yeah because winmau would accept it if he had a unicorn hanging.

[@mattysowls]

hes also beaten taylor over 31 legs in the grand slam, go on upload some footage, and ill upload mine, oh wait i dont need too because im already on the net for darts in the pdc and on the youth tour!

[@pauldicken1694]

Everyone's moms favourite

[@gemsdiamond2002]

I looked at the darts odds earlier and Beaton wasn't listed on the first page!

[@ongzkeejepongzkee8886]

- he is look-a-like of Arnold Schwarzenegger, lol!

[@mikes2529]

Practices 30 to 90 minutes a day. Phil Taylor practices like 6 hours a day, snm.

[@mattysowls]

obvs looking at the wrong bookies kid

[@charlesscottkelly]

I just want to hit 60 every throw... that would do me.

[@adjustedjohn]

when you were 13? what, next year?. go on , post this video....just like you posted a photo of someone else as your avatar,,lol

[@gemsdiamond2002]

100/1 with Paddypower and he's usually 125/1! I'd get more enjoyment backing West Ham to win the league, at least they'll be in contention longer!

[@fellicf8827]

Can agree with a few people. He really should spend more time practicing, he's done shit over the past few days.

[@dan32113]

your Dad, Fred was a wrong un!

[@technojoe4079]

What did he do?

[@mh9649]

that eyebrows tough

[@JVerschueren]

In practice, I'd have more darts. Say, like, 12 and spend more time throwing than picking them out of the board.

[@LiamCoops01]

Jan Verschueren I'd say it's more about rhythm and repeating the same things you'll do in games.

[@THTdave]

Eyebrows!

[@ajmedia1274]

Shit sound quality

[@gemsdiamond2002]

They can all win the odd game when it doesn't matter! I wouldn't waste my time watching him in a real game! He's pompous, hits the odd checkout and thinks he's God, but then his opponent matches his score and his legs go like JELLY! Look at his practice regime; which player can't hit the 20's? He practices on his own, no wonder, it would bore the fuck out of me! My fav finish is 139: t19, t14, d20. Try and hit one out of the 3!

[@gemsdiamond2002]

Doesn't do him much good in games! He's got no bottle!

[@richardfellingham3492]

[@linkvagar2336]

18th all time money earner in darts and former world champion. Keep talking shit tho.

[@gemsdiamond2002]

He won it in the B.D.O. where Taylor and Priestley competed in the P.D.C! You have no idea of what I can do on a board and I will be planning to upload footage to shut u up! Beaton has no bottle and this was proven, later, in his Grand Prix match this month!

[@linkvagar2336]

There was no PDC in 1990 you complete pillock. Both Taylor and Priestly were both in the BDO when Steve won the world championship. Troll harder.

[@linkvagar2336]

And wheres that footage to "shut u up"?

[@gemsdiamond2002]

he's the self acclaimed Adonis and really thinks he's just that! I have spoken to him and he has no personality and is just as boring as his practice routine! He is a great player, I accept, but has no bottle and will never win anything worth while! I'll upload one of my finishes soon and it'll be better than 20 twenties! I was doing that easily when I was 13! I suggest he tries for the treble each throw!

[@richardfellingham3492]

Barry West 0

[@JendrixHimi]

He is not a great player he is an average pro at best , when he enters a competition he is usually over 100/1 to win

[@linkvagar2336]

@@JendrixHimi yeah...so average he' won a world championship and sits 18th all time for money earned in darts. Really rely average...

[@gemsdiamond2002]

I just know a great player when I see one and one who isn't an entertainer! Thornton beat Taylor last month, so he's the bees knees now? Beaton beats nobody much and is a boring prick! Enjoy watching his first / second round exits!

[@ryanburgess6292]

1 and a half hours a day...That's why you will never be world champion. Take a leaf out of Taylor's book.

[@Thomas-ml4iy]

1996 BDO world champ..

[@kennethdodd5924]

Ryan Burgess Yes, but unlike Taylor, he isn't a total cock, completely up his own arse.

[@JendrixHimi]

Thats why Taylor is 16 times WC , you are defending a guy that practices 1 hour a day and is rubbish won 1 world title , (was lucky) compared to 5 to 7 hours practice per day who won 16 WC , yes it is clear who is the cock , you certainly are that.

[@ronaldtallett1781]

what and be bitter and twisted like Taylor..Steve was always a natural even in the mid 80s happy guy win or lose

[@JendrixHimi]

That is why he is not 16 times world champion, you are either in to win or you are a nobody in the sport , do it best you can or get out , I'm sure when Beaton goes to the bank and sees his balance, he is more bitter and twisted than Taylor , 6 hours per day practice vs 1 hour per day practice , were you always last to be picked at sport at school? you should not be playing competitive sports if you are happy to lose

[@JendrixHimi]

Practice for 30 minutes to 1 hour per day? , no wonder he is rubbish
