Never played soft tip darts as only heard of it for the first time during the World Championship when the giant was playing and it was pointed out he was the multiple times ?8 or more time World Soft Tip Champion. Never knew it existed until then. Heard its played far more on the continent!

No problem, I hope it helps. :)

My opinion is that the winnmu is very slightly faster but not alot of difference. :)

Right down the vallys but I moved to Swansea 2yrs ago. 😀

@@Straightdarts Cheers! I'm in Swansea as well. Been playing darts for years, but can't get much above a fifty average, no matter how much I practice. Anyway, enjoying your videos!

I actually new that by though it would be easier for people to find the correct flight if surching to buy. 😀 its weird though I don't see why bull don't just make their own or buy them out. 🤷

I have, they play like pears from me but with more deflections. :)

I do like them, they look and feel nice but the cost is to heavy. I find even with trident 180's or specialist points I still go though them at the same rate at normal flights (2 or 3 sets a week). I found the longest lasting flight to be Robson flight but again I can go through these in a week. I currently use a std 75 micron pear flight 10 sets for £4 with postage. I come across an expensive flight that really helps me game I'll pay it but every about at the moment dosnt seem like good value to be. I found cosmo to be the worst for pear flights, the bottom splits in a few hours normally. With the Lstyle, I do like the steam design with the flight protection on it though, that's a brilliant idea to be fair 😀

Good to know, thanks mate 👍:)

Apologies I believe I did send a response to this but its not showing so sorry If you didn't receive it :) And no its not in your head, You height will have no effect but if your bigger its likely the added weight behind the dart from your arm. Andy Fordham had problems with it when he lost weight. Most people who are taller tend to use a small flight and short shaft, its something iv noticed. But their are always exceptions depending no who soft or hard you throw as well :)

Do you mean short stems and small flights on a common 50mm type barrel or whatever length barrel? I'm tall and after all these years still learning I use McCoy's marksman 26g with medium stems and standard flights . I recently bought your darts and got the closest I've got to hitting 180 with two in the T20 and robin hooded my last dart!

There isn't but I'll put in on my todo list for you. :)

@@Straightdarts well thanks very much :) considering buying new darts at the moment and struggling to choose the right weight (using pretty cheap, kinda weird, 23g at the moment)

@@klabund1807 that's a good weight to start at as its right in the middle. You'll find the lighter the dart the faster your arm needs to travel and the heavier the darts the softer you can throw it. :)

@@Straightdarts I believe I‘m naturally more on the throwing lighter side. Probably going to buy them darts in 24g, as they are offered in 22g,24g and 26g. Anyways, thanks a lot for your help :)

No mate. Steve Beaton uses a pear as well and he retired as opposed to being kicked out :D

No loads use pear and kite. Danny Nopert, Steve Beaton, William O'connor, Connor Scutt, Brandon Dolan and Andrew Guilding, all used pear or kite shape. :)

I had only asked because all the players at the recent World Championships used normal shaped flights, not one used a 'Pear Or Kite Shaped One', hence the reason for my question. I always used Pear Shaped Flights for the sole reason that the darts appeared to fly truer with fewer distortions or deviations in flight and also there is less in the way of the subsequent arrows, darts, as they headed towards their target! Hope you all agree or if not then I would be interested in your opinions on the subject! Many thanks for your responses in the first instance too, thanks, Mark!

@markdermody9698 loads used different flights, just off the top of my head I can think of 9 players. Bredon Dolan. Andrew Guilding. Connor Scutt. William O'connor. Kean Barry. Ryan Joyce. Steve Beaton. Peter Wright. Jenny Clayton.

Must state too, that John Lowe also used Pear Shaped Flights, yet his were the original style feathered flights which always looked amazing and reduced the number of deflected darts thrown which, with the solid flights didn't allow any further darts to travel through them thus deflecting them, unlike the original 'Feather' style flights which allowed the points to travel through! Hope you are old enough to remember John Lowe, the first man to hit a televised '9 Dart Finish'! Also, if memory serves me right, it happened in the World Matchplay Championships too! I seem to remember Keith Deller (? The Then World Champion, which he won on his Debut in 1983) was the poor unsuspecting opposition at the time and it was an absolute sensation back in the day. Especially when you think about all the Darting Greats of that time period who had previously failed to hit those perfect 9 darts in a televised event! I don't really want to miss out someone big but there were the old greats such as Leighton 'Marathon Man' Rees (He was The Welsh Darting Wizard), then you have the diminutive John Thomas 'Jocky' Wilson. Then there was the person considered to be the ultimately the Undisputed Best Player in The World at the time as between 1980-1986 he won the World Title 5 Times - Eric 'The Crafty Cockney' Bristow, Bobby George (aka The King of Bling, Bobby Dazzler or Mr Glitter due to his great use of Rhinestones on his tops and all his Jewellery too), Bob Anderson (The Limestone Cowboy), Andy 'The Viking' Fordham and Steve 'The Bronze Adonis' Beaton, and of course, the new kid on the block, young 'Keith Deller' who had become the World Champion on his debut a couple of years earlier, if my memory serves me right! Hope these names create and generate some great memories for you all! I know they have done for me too, especially John Lowe as he was also my Grandma's favourite Dart Player at the time too as he was mine seeing as he was quite a local 'lad' seeing as he is from Derbyshire and I live in Nottingham!

He flicks the darts on release, nearly every player with a front grip that makes there darts land up dose it. It's really difficult to teach but it's a case of griping and flicking the point up as you throw. :)

@@Straightdarts Interesting, might give it a try but sounds quite hard
