Winmau Simon Whitlock 22g Darts Review

[@claymore32]

Simon has his thumb in the scallop and his middle and ring finger along the barrel/point. PDC has a "my throw" video of him.

[@bigfootshaber1048]

Love these darts, This is what I use. Fits my hand and throw perfect. Great review!

[@Ck.malone180]

I use these darts and I really like them, I have tried many sets and these are easily most comfortable and best darts I've thrown

[@simonfrouws]

I'm getting these tomorrow can't wait the brass Simon Whitlocks are amazing so i can't wait thanks for the review 😁

[@smiffy7890]

I got myself a set of these when they came out because I’d previously had a set of his Gold phase 2 darts and I hold them in the same place. It had taken me a while to get used to them but the do group really tight. Looking forward to see the Allen key points Great stuff WWD 👍🏻

[@tonyebbings4834]

Love watching your show here in NZ. Keep up the great work. =)

[@WorldwideDarts]

Thanks Tony! I appreciate that 👍🏻

[@Jc_cerebral]

Great video. I love the explanation of the marker dart and then pulling it off well done. These darts have always intrigued me

[@WorldwideDarts]

Thanks. I laughed to myself when it went in. I was like "oh man, I called my shot" 😂

[@weavostigercat2000]

Hi , played a match last night 9/5/23 and a guy on other team had these darts , he let me have a got ( i like the tapered darts ) so I've ordered a set to try . Then I thought you must of rreviewed them and found you . I like long points ( 40mm showing ) so will change them first thing , glad you did a review , cheers Graham.

[@MrMJkingofpop94]

Who else is excited for the planned World Senior Darts Tour? Hankey, B. Anderson, Lowe, Deller, Priestley and Taylor are in! I can't wait. Cheers WWD, looking forward to the allen key Vid!

[@WorldwideDarts]

Hankey!!! 👍🏻

[@macbrian1703]

The Power got a bad rap in court, was hoping he could make some money before he gets to old to get out and about. This looks to be a good start for him and others players has well.

[@elari100]

That location tho 😂

[@CoinandRelicOntario]

I picked up the Whitlock SE 22gr a month ago and really like them. Indeed, it took some time, but throwing them well. Better points on the SE.

[@frankewhite2490]

Great video as always. I really wanna get a hold of the Whitlock darts after I got my Loxley Robins. The Robins are so much fun to throw, can't wait to try the Wizard darts :D

[@sdonnellan718]

My favourite flights of all time 🔥

[@kenwiese1083]

Great darts threw a 180 with them in comp on wed 24 gram but I've bought about 20 sets of darts and keep coming back to these

[@marchoffmann3039]

Great review as always! Then there will be a last 'dead' of your unicorn board when geting hitted by the alenkey points... 😉

[@alantobin4014]

I got these darts at christmass and u no wat,there class.. u no where to grip with the scllop every time,also I use a longer point and thy work really well,,there a grate dart. Can't wate to c the home made allen key points to

[@frair4393]

oh word, soon as i saw the points i thought need a new board!. they are pretty rough on the boards, that said I am a fan of Simon, hope to play him some day!

[@dakilacastillo6426]

absolutely beautiful!...wow!....excellent!

[@Strohat8]

Great review! Interesting style (winmau sniper V2)

[@Ramon-gg3bd]

I'm quite a fan of his previous generation of darts, the front loaded Hankey type dart. They were very well balanced.. these are very very particular, if you can get used to the shape and scallop..

[@Gyuri107]

i have the Simon Whitlock Special Edition 22 g Darts . That is just as hard with the grip to get it right as you say with the SW "normal" darts. But after you get used to it they also fly really really well.

[@adamwelch9988]

Deffo get the loxleys robins comparison. For once, I don't completely agree why tho! Throwing from the mid to the rear with the balance point in front of my main contact point with the barrel, I don't think either take that much adjustment. For the loxleys, it's smoothly smooth smooth, and for these, because of the taper, the razor grip doesn't play like a razer grip. For how I hold the darts, the contours are pretty irrelevant. They look good but don't impact my throw. I was quite surprised myself tbh.

[@stefanvandenbergh5757]

Great darts!! Really love them

[@markmassa3359]

I use the 24 gm version. They produce the tightest groups of any dart that I have thrown over the 35 yrs that I have played darts. I use 1 3/4” points and have many groups where all three points are touching one another. The shape of the barrel seems to pull the points toward each other as the dart slides past darts already in the board. The only down side that I have seen, is that your marker dart(s) needs to be very close to the wire of the bed you are trying to hit. You can easily miss the bed when the thrown dart’s point lands between the marker’s point and the wire. A small price to pay when you hit a 180 that could fit inside the center of a Life Saver.

[@WorldwideDarts]

You use the Piranha points with these?

[@markmassa3359]

Yes I do.

[@WorldwideDarts]

I'm not a fan of Dart World products at all but damn, those points are awesome. Nicest points out there imo.

[@markmassa3359]

@@WorldwideDarts Those points are very nice. I with they still made the 2” models. The best points I’ve ever run across, were out of Hit and Run Darts in Atlanta. A lot of different lengths, spring steel, and with micro milling grooves. They gripped the board hard for months. The guy that ran the store was a pleasure to deal with, and the guy that made them was doing it on company time and got caught and was fired. I remember 21 years ago punching in the address for Hit and Run Darts. To my surprise, the IRL was bought by a pornographic site that put up twenty plus windows of porn sites. My wife decided to enter the room 5 seconds after this came up on the screen. I’m talking to her and deleting as fast as possible. My finger wasn’t fast enough. I had to show her the history on the browser just to save our marriage. Funny now, but scary then. BTW I really enjoy your new series you do on Mondays. Keep it up, as it’s nice to see some of the finer points of how to play 501.

[@onecjwilly]

I use these in league play (soft tip tho), and I love them. I place my thumb right up against the step in the middle.

[@newforestexplorer]

I warmed to my 22g set really quickly and they are a lot lighter than I normally throw. My stems didn’t last long either

[@loiteringrambler2928]

I have the special edition version of them and they are incredible but they have a more conventional shape

[@bjorndewinter]

i wonder how the allenkey points are going to impact those barrels, recently had 42mm point installed, and even that had a MAJOR impact on my throw.

[@thomasthompson5250]

In my dart case i have a set of Simon Whitlock 20g soft tip a set of Simon with locks 22 like you're throwing down a set of Loxley Robin 21g and I said of loxi Robbins 23g I love all four sets

[@pirukiddingme1908]

They look like my darts clearance tapered barrels, just with a deeper scallop. Not an easy dart to throw but definitely very cool

[@CrazyMike180]

Hello, my name is Mike and I'm from Germany, I'm an absolute Simon Whitlock fan and I would be happy if you would test the Simon Whitlock Special Darts, just like his black and golden darts, I'd be very interested. Best regards, Mike

[@jamesjohnson8727]

I have these in 24g . When I ordered I had RD put extra long points on them.

[@WorldwideDarts]

Sounds like a great combo!

[@scottlukechurch8916]

On the new simon whitlock special edition darts can u take all the paint off of the darts please

[@stefanopirletti3561]

I tried those whitlock darts with the rainbowish painting, and I usually use gerwyn price darts, and I ended up tryint grip in the back with the fingers on the razor grip, the darts never left my fingers, I dragged it to the 9 section

[@paddykeefer6345]

I always thought his darts were stupid. With weighed shafts, different colors and flights, but those look nice

[@stijno007]

Good videos!! I have a question regarding darts and powerlifting. How do you combine the sports without interfering to much in one or the other sport?

[@WorldwideDarts]

It doesn't go well at all. I've been back at it for a month now and that's why there's been a decrease in videos. I simply can't throw well after some upper body exercises 😂

[@stijno007]

I have the same thing!! I have a mild injury in my right arm that's kept in check by going hard at deadlifts, squats and benches and doing all other lifts carefully with a high rep count and counting out the exercises that make ik worse. It's tough making a choice but health always comes first 💪

[@WorldwideDarts]

@@stijno007 Since I was out of a real gym for over a year due to this virus crap I had to totally switch things up. I spent all last year at this outdoor fitness center doing pullups, pushups and dips plus other exercises with bands. Now that I'm back at the gym I've been going extremely light and jacking up the reps. So my last two sets on the bench are for 20 and 25 reps. A bit different from what I'm used to but I don't want to get injured by going too heavy too soon. Plus I'm old 😂

[@stijno007]

@@WorldwideDarts as you get older, the only thing the body wants to do is delivering quality reps 💪 doing ego lifts will only make you a lot older 😜 the virus made me realise that I wanted a home gym so that's what I arranged. You can get a lot done with a small rack, barbell, some weights and dumbbels. Cheers mate and a good weekend to you sir 🤞

[@kvajeblostari]

I bought these darts in December, I thought they would suit me, but I'm bothered by the groove in the middle somehow 😄

[@BernaHenriques]

I bought the darts clearance ones, and hated them. The best thing about them was the price. Can't get on with them because of the razor grip and the scallop at the front

[@kdutt3341]

Are these front or rear weighted darts ?

👍👍

[@istthisnatsu7831]

I have got the darts at 24grams myself but don't really like them. I prefer a front grip and it's not really nice on them darts tbo. And the point is way too short for my style. Cool darts, but they don't suit me ^^

[@drofheim]

I do like a nice looking dart, have to say these aren't good looking at all. However, very ergonomical and good for a player with grip and release issues.

[@shanechapman2415]

Did it take 10 hours to get that 180??
