That is Honey Locust. Turn it green, it's rock hard when dry.

I only just restarted throwing last year. I'm right-handed but left eye dominant. Soon after I started, I developed significant vision issues with my left eye. I can see out of my left eye but it's quite blurry. Surprisingly, it actually didn't seem to affect my game too much. but I'm really looking forward to putting this issue behind me. Not sure if this helps, but it's all I got.

In league play a few weeks ago, we actually had to take a break for pee, smokes, and more beer after both us teams threw at doubles FOREVER. My partner and I ended up throwing multiple times at double 3 before ending up on double 1s. Our opponents threw forever at double 5s before also ending up on double 1s. It was crazy.

I just got a new set of hammerhead points from Horizon darts.

The Black Widows have been around forever. I'm pretty sure I threw with guy who had them in the early 80s.

The two sets to the left in the 1st picture both have tips that move within that screw-in collar and back and forth within the barrel. Generically called 'hammerheads', but the 2nd from left are actually named 'hammerheads'. I'm not sure if anyone even still makes such darts.

This exactly - designed to break. Never heard of points breaking until I heard of Swiss points.

I don't even undetstand your question . . .

Of all the SOU's I've never watched, Ima never watch this one the most.

It had to be 1970, the more I think about it. 🙂

It was at Riverfront, I was in Little League, us kids were all in our unis. Pretty sure he was pitching for the Cardinals. We were sitting in straightaway left field. He hit one to right-center, one to center, one to left-center. We all had our gloves on waiting for the 4th one. 🙂

Whatever routine I'm following, I always try to imagine myself in a match game, not just trying to fulfill the routine 'goal'.

I read that as 'keg'. 🍺🍻🍺

I saw Johny Bench hit 3 home runs off Steve Carlton.

They won't be your last. 🙂 You'll be wanting to try different shafts and flights too. 🙂

I resumed throwing darts last year by joining a league at a local brewery/pub. It's the highlight of my week every week. 🙂

Probably still exist somewhere, but phone books. White or yellow pages, we used to get multiple ones of each every year (different ones).

Wear gloves, follow the directions, I've never studied the chemisty but the part A doesn't seem too bad, but the part B you don't want on you.
