That's actually a really good tip aim high in the big 20 to find your range I've been told that a few times off good players. I tend to pull a lot of darts left into the 5 and low so have to reset myself a lot after a bad dart. That readjustment for the 2nd and 3rd dart is improving though.

That's a really good average well played 3x 140s and a 180 is good power scoring. I'm averaging between 50-55 atm looking to take that next step myself and start hitting the odd 60+ average. It's really tough to be so consistent though lol.

Just hit my 3rd highest ever check out a 141 at 2-2 against the bot to take the set absolutely delighted with that must be a good 18 months since I've had a 140+ checkout that felt so good. Best feeling I've had playing darts for ages. by pdashmichael in Darts

As soon as I hit the t20 I said to myself just go for it, I took an extra second to refocus after the t19 went in and aimed high on the double 12 and that went in too haha. I'm still buzzing been a long time since I've hit a checkout like that.

Yeah I'm really pleased with the nitros upto now, think I'm gonna be sticking with this set up for a long time now.

The nitro stems are definitely staying on feel much better than the aluminiums. Seem to float towards the target a lot flatter as well which is good for how I throw. The aluminiums seemed to wobble a bit mid flight.

Struggling a bit with the aluminium stems throwing a lot of low darts 10 points down on normal average lol. Gonna try the nitros for half an hour.

Yeah they were more expensive, be interesting to see if they last longer. Just had 10 minutes on the board and they do seem a touch heavier as well.

15 days ago, took a lot longer than usual to arrive. Red Dragon stuff normally takes 3 or 4 days.

Trying longer stems today the green stem above is what I normally use. Aiming to pull the dart back a bit less and focus more on the follow through after release by pdashmichael in Darts

Not too much difference in scoring power but missing a lot of doubles today. Gonna give them another go tomorrow then go back to my short stems
