Hey, complete beginner here. Like your videos dude, clear instruction and presentation. Thanks

This has truly been the best advice for my game. Solid advice from a solid coach! My average has been going up ever since I found this video. Thank you!!!!

Great advice. I realized watching Danny Baggish throw what was wrong with my throw. I was starring way out in front of me I developed a lot of bad habits when I had dartitis and watching Danny throw I realized that’s how I used to start my throw off

For me use the least amount of contact points (fingers) whilst still being in good control of the dart. That way you'll get a more consistent release and throw. The rest pretty much comes naturally from there. The less movement the better re. Arm retraction. From elbow only if you can.

Nice advice for shortening the back swing. I try and it works for the first throw

Thanks for that video I found that very informative you've certainly answered a lot of frequently asked questions from people learning the game of darts keep up the good work mate👍

Very helpful, thanks!

This video is really helpful. Thanks man!

Overall a great video thanks! I have two points to add. 1) if your backswing is longer your brain has more time to make corrections which could lead to a more consistent throw under pressure. You also need less power coming from your triceps to accelerate the dart which in my opinion results in a lower margin of error. If you are a powerhouse thrower then forget about all this an keep your backswing short 😂 2) I do believe that a huge factor to help you find your release point is rhythm. If you have nailed your throwing rhythm from “pick the dart from your other hand until the release” the release should come naturally at roughly the same point. So try to keep a rhythm that feels natural to you and your release point will be more consistent over time.

Thanks for the upload, great vid! Cheers🍻

THANK YOU 🙏🏻 Your videos help me a lot to get better in darts. 🎯👌🏻💪🏻👊🏻

Thanks !

This was very helpful, thanks so much

great video man ! one of the clearest videos on YT , thanks a lot !!!

Thanks for the short class, helps alot, i have a hard time sticking to one set of darts, always thinking there's a better set, hopefully ill find that set, lol, thanks again

Thanks for your time and lesson bro

I watched how you hold the dart with youre finger pointing up, that really helpt allot with my throw.i trow way better now.thanks man

Im a total beginner. Thanks for your tipps, very cool Video!

You are a very thorough teacher. Instruction specific..body mechanics. Super

Now I know where I'm going wrong! I have been using my shoulder when throwing. It makes a massive difference when you don't use the shoulder and just use the elbow to release the dart. Thanks for the great advice!

I enjoy watching your videos. Your advise is raising the level of my steel tip and soft tip game.

It also is how comfortable and confident you are with your throw. Over thinking my throw cause a bit of a hitch but i guess its just a mind game at that point. Nice vid👌

Enjoyed your tutorial, friendly and helpful. I’ve been playing darts for years…with poor technique. Trying to improve! Thank you sir

Very helpful dude..Thanks from Solomon islands 🇸🇧 🏝

Hi Nick, thank you for sharing your experience! Very analytic in details. Have one year of experience and catching myself thinking about same details. Can you maybe talk about difference in aiming upper and lower numbers. Currently have problems with Bullseye. Thanks

thanks. Great tips that really work!

Thanks for the great tips!!!

Thanks for that video.

I just started and mimicked our Austrian friend's grip, and it's actually another natural hold, works for me. Though, it depends on weight, I prefer it on lower weights like 20-22grams. Higher than that, I'll use my main grip.

Thanks man.

I ALWAYS float my darts (releasing too early) and your third tip really helped me, thanks!

Thanks for the tips

Very good. I'm a beginner so helpful. Thanks

Interesting points Subscribed will watch some more of your vid's Cheers.

Awesome vid. Definitely 1 of the best for throwing info. Aka the title.. seriously the advice here is hard to find though valuable

Watched this video and went back and threw a bit. I was definitely moving my shoulder. After finally curing that issue and just moving at the elbow I was able to hit the numbers I was trying to more consistently. Definite improvement from this video. Thanks!

I love this

great watching your videos! thanks for the info :)

Thanks for being one of my coaches! Explanations are straight to the point.TY!

Really impressed with your channel! Awesome points in this video about arm/elbow position and followthrough/point. I notice you grip the dart with only the index finger and thumb, and hold the other three fingers loosely. Why not folded down into your palm? Seems like there's less to get out of the way then. Just curious as I'm still experimenting with grip.

Thank you for this. Great video.

Good info! Thanks...

I remember a pro tip from Phil Taylor.. He said alot of players don't aim their darts and purely throw on instinct and muscle memory. And you can be good at that but you will never max out your talent.. Try to find a reference when holding the dart that comes closest to where you wanna aim and hit and practice on that ( e.g. my crosshair is my thumbnail ).. No wonder he is 17 times WC :D

Getting back after 13 years away from playing and your videos have been awesome. Great refresher and new lessons

Nice.. Better mic is great. I also like that you are humble and explain stuff well.

This is great.

Great video. Helpful tip on the shoulder and elbow position. One thing I do during practice is to have a mirror nearby to watch my throw. Sometimes it gives instant feedback on the position of my elbow. Also, when you talk about pointing... I forget who said this (maybe you did!) is that you're fingers end up pointing downward after pointing at your target. It's just the natural end position for the fingers when they are travelling fast and you have a tension free throw. Last bit... can you talk about how you move your arm/elbow/shoulder/torso when you go from shooting at double 20's down to double 19's. I have a problem where my 19s are always too high. Thanks a lot, BSD

Great tips on the throw and release. I've been trying to improve my game and going to try the advice. Don't worry I won't say it's all your fault when I miss. Just means I need to keep practicing. Haha. Keep up that hustle!

subscribed!! thanks for video. what weight dart should I be using for soft-tips on a Gran Board 3S ? I'm trying some viper 16 & 18 just to see what's best but am I off base on what I'm trying?

Phil Taylor absolutely points at his target.

Thanks much

Great advice for beginners. Thank you. I completely agree with you about Mensur Suljović's throw. When I watch him play, I think that his nickname "The Gentle" should be changed to "The Ballerina". But still, he does get great results. This is my first visit to your channel but, you seem to offer some good advice about darts. I'll subscribe.

The fact that he just said "When you're shooting a gun" as an everyday example 😂 Americas different man

What's up Nick? I will be rooting for you in the Chicago tour finals!!! Me and all my hustling homies are pulling for you!

Many years ago I lived for darts, I practiced every chance I had. My advice to become a darts player is like any trade find the right tools, I spent a small fortune till I found the right set, in the end I found set that was near to what I wanted, then turned them down to what I wanted, Then I practiced and practiced to achieve a better standard, to do this I practised at least for an hour a day throwing at the Bull, doing this you get better grouping of you darts, ( closer together), Then I practiced throwing around the board at the doubles, if you missed a double with you three darts, then you had to start over with double one, it payed off, especially throwing at Bull, I tried to emulate my idol ALUN EVANS of WALES. He was playing 301, double in double out, He scored,with his first 3 darts, Bull - Bull - Bull second 3 darts Bull - Treble 17 = 51 Then finished on the Bull for a 6 dart chip out, I never could emulate him, but came close a few times by starting with 3 Bulls but could never finish, ALUN Evans and his Welsh mate Leighton Reece where the pioneers of what darts has become today, they were the first dart professionals Bless Them, I loved my darts, but alas the only way I could score at darts today is to throw the board at the darts, LOL. To all you Guys and Gals out there please take care and keep safe... My Respect to you ALL❤

This is an excellent video and I love your presentation style! I wonder if you could give me some advice, please? I'm a petite lady and only 5' 3" tall. Would you recommend I use lighter or heavier darts? I seem to struggle at the moment with the higher part of the board. Someone told me heavy darts would be better as apparently light darts need to be thrown higher because of the arc? I currently use 20-gram darts.

Nice advice man!

Just came across this segment. Good topic & informative. It's October now. Do you have a travel schedule? On your website you don't Introduce or have an about you section. Thanks

Great video. I get the karate chop motion but can you address the wrist and fingers. Do you keep tension in wrist, too? Also, are you conscious of your elbow being level or are you more concerned with "sighting" the dart?

Nice tips Cheers brudda .

Just started playing darts recently. And me and my girlfriend have enjoyed the entire time. We're both competitive and we also have started playing darts with my boss. He likes the game as well. I just want you to know I like what you said about amen again cuz that's exactly what I said about my throw when I talk to my boss about it. Because of that I subscribe to your channel and I like your attitude and your personality. Thank you so much for a nice little video

That short backswing tip is golden

It's time to get good at the darts, not just me but you too

Great video I don’t have anyone to play with but I’m enjoying practicing I have subscribed Thank you

Great video 👍

hey. Great video. everyone has a different stand ans different throw. I've been playing darts for a few months now. getting really good at it now

Yes... You are suppose to point at the dart board! In my opinion the greatest dart thrower Phil Taylor, literally says in his dart video to point at the board. Nice video man keep up with the tutorials my friend. Let the haters hate!!! Lol

Loved the video, informative, and helpful, but I have questions. What if you are not able to stand still without pain long enough to do what you are referring to? I have had 5 back surgeries and I hurt all the time. I play darts to help deal with the pain even though it hurts to do so and I still love the game. As a result, I have a very ugly throw. I use 3 different sets, Viper Bumble Bees @ 18 grams, what can be considered Bar Dats @ 12 grams, and my favorite Termite Darts @ 4.8 grams with the flights and flight protectors. I do have a small grouping enough to warrant the use of flight protectors to guard against Robin Hooding and have even learned to throw ambidextrous to prevent one arm from getting too sore. With all that said I'm still plagued with consistency issues. Do you have any thoughts on how to correct that issue?

Excellent.

LOVE IT!! SUBBED

I play soft tips and players tend to have a longer throw. The weight of the darts can factor into the amount of strength you put into the throw. A longer throw creates a higher arc, and accelerated momentum. It's another way to reach the board without the need to throw harder.

Great tutorial, I have a bad follow through bc I am focus too much on grabbing the next dart, while trying not to move or sway, I like to be as stiff as possible, timing, rhythm, movement and form is a lot more than meets the eye.

Nice

great tips, it seems in the mornings my arm hits reset and my throw doesnt feel natural until the midday. any advice for preparation before a game or tournament?

I'd like to know more how the grip changes such as that "twitch" of the middle finger just before starting the forward movement, how the wrist movement contributes or how to throw the dart with some "zip" without losing your grip

What’s the best dart board to buy?

Good stuff, liked and followed 👍

Rad channel!

Danke für's Video und die Arbeit dafür. Grüße an alle! 😄

Absolutely brilliant video im a much better darts player now since following your videos thanks so much

Great tips bro. New sub here

How do I know what weighted darts suit my throw? I want to buy some good ones but unsure how I know this. Thanks

By the way I wasn't being critical love the video as well. I played at a good level so appreciate what your doing keep up the good work

Hell of a smile

You mentioned Mensur Suljovic and his throw. He had dartitis and had to change his throw so that is why he throws like that

Would this be applicable to magnetics also..which I have hete

When you release your throw, do you roll the dart with your pointer finger ?

Holy cow, my arm is too far out in front when I set up. I tried starting further back and notice a big difference. With the follow through, do i have to flick my wrist at the end?

Dude I’ve been practicing for a while now, How long does it take to hit the bull almost every time?

nice, how darts are you using? i'm new aver here!

I throw my dart next to my head instead of under my eye for my sight line. It seems to ne working well and throwing in front of my eye feels off. Should I change or continue the way I'm throwing? Thanks

Are you holding the dart with your thumb and index finger, with the middle finger on the tip?

About the release point. Some advice that I got from an experienced dart player is to just throw at bulls with a lighter set and your regular set. The release point is something your subconscious just figures out. When you’re hitting bulls damn near every shot you know you’ve found your release point.

An alternate method to pointing at your target is shaking hands with the board. At the end of your throw your hand should be in a position similar to shaking hands with someone. Nice little trick Jimmy Damore taught me before he was kicked out of Di's Den......for the 3rd time.

When I was playing darts earlier on I was letting the dart "sail". Is that a proper technique?

What’s your preferred online store for darts and accessories?

Struggling with my game last week or so , I was averaging mid 70’s and hitting heavy scoring but I’d say last 5/6 days I’m really struggling not to hit the 5 and 1 😔 I’ve only been playing 1yr and I’m all self taught but because I’m only practicing against bots or practicing on my own my concentration is absolute terrible , I rush shots , I walk on my last dart , I keep changing grip and I keep moving all over the oche but afew weeks back I kept myself solid and was hitting 8-15 180’s a day , I suffer from tennis elbow quite bad and I need a knee replacement on my lean in knee which gives me terrible pain , I think maybe having afew days off the board and going back with a fresh head , no emotions and a fresh start maybe my best option but I take darts very serious and on my day when I play well I’m excellent I just have a bad mental block at the moment and I suffer from ocd and anxiety which isn’t letting me change much with my game

How is your release Point the same as your back stroke? You don't release your Dart at your face as you said, cuz you have no speed build up?

Playing darts for 10years, im 17btw, every single player said i had the best the cleanest throw they have seen, changed darts everything changed throw got all nasty follow through was different every dart, everything went downhill, and i managed to get along with my dirty looking way of playing that i got into national team was scoring high, doubles nasty, and even i can say that this was the best guidence i have heard from anyone, changed all of my nasty stuff and now my game is way up there, and i played with nasty throw and stance for years, so thank you, and hope a lot of other people can learn from ya, good one!
