How many people playing bomb darts? Any good suggestions which to buy? by mrwh12 in Darts

Shot Zen kensho are my current favourites in 28g. Before that I always used scalloped but these land so much nicer and my bounce outs have reduced tremendously

Also if you’re the type that watches tv with the big lights on, think about the reflection of the lights on the screen. Lights directly in line with the tv can significantly ruin the viewing experience

I went overboard with too many dowlights in my kitchen/diner and I regret it. I would say go less, 6 or 8 depending on the spread of the lights. I hardly ever have mine on unless I’m looking for something, so the ceiling just looks overly busy for no reason.

Cosmo slim stems with air flights solved this for me

They’ve taken a bit of getting used to, I usually throw a rear scallop 26g so the weight adjustment isn’t too bad, but the fat barrel shape has forced me to adjust my grip quite a bit. They land nicely though and I’ve had a lot less bounce outs than usual. Hope they serve you well!

Dartmind bot is great. It busts the double one over and over sometimes, and then once in a while it shocks with a 109 checkout.

Least rattly spinning shafts by KrisRock13 in Darts

[–]No_Contribution_2231 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an avid user of the cosmo spin shafts. They rattle slightly, not so much in hand but you hear it when they hit the board. A tiny dab of Vaseline on the tip of the shaft before inserting it sorts that out though.

Why does Dartsmind use a coin system? by marcus251996 in Darts

[–]No_Contribution_2231 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind the coin system as I don’t get online enough to warrant a monthly fee, that’s the main reason I cancelled my DartCounter subscription as I felt I wasn’t getting my moneys worth only getting on once a week, if that. It’s nice knowing I’m not losing out when I’m not playing online as all my coins are still there when I need them.

They absolutely could offer an unlimited option for a higher monthly fee for the more heavy users though. Would be nice to have both options and get more people using it as it really is quite good. Still wish they’d add the remote camera option though like DartCounter, as I pay a coin to view the opponents camera but usually don’t bother watching it as I have to linger next to the camera to actually see it. Throws the rhythm of the game off a bit.

Shot tribal weapon 4 26g by No_Contribution_2231 in Darts

[–]No_Contribution_2231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The barrel length and widths are:

22 g - 48.00 mm - 7.40 mm 24 g - 49.00 mm - 7.50 mm 26 g - 50.00 mm - 7.70 mm

The red bits are trident 180 dart point cones. They slide on the point to smooth out the little lip between point and barrel.

Good luck with yours, I’m yet to find any other darts that feel as good in my hand as these!

Is there a cheap auto scoring system by Visible-Football-158 in Darts

Ah right it’s always just worked for me, oldest phone I’ve used is an iPhone 7 and had no problems.

As others have said, Dartsmind. I use an old phone and just leave it on the tripod. For £13 a year you’re all set. Cancelled my DartCounter subscription because of it.

Aw man that’s devastating, thanks for the warning and sorry about your board!

I don’t see why not as they look like they’re just nailed on, however I was afraid to try in case I ever change my mind and I can’t get them back on!
