The finishing is impressive. It's the checkout of a winner. You look good enough to get into a very good team. And you are young enough to get to at least county level, that's evident in your style and manner. What we don't see here of course is how you handle a tense game, playing against someone full of old tricks or even new ones,, or the tense atmosphere situations. If you can handle all that when it is essential and not just when YOU feel up for it, ie you are feeling ill or you have just lost your job or even had a prang on your way to the Grimethorpe working men's club and when you get in the local gorilla asks you wtf you looking at, all that type of scenario and many more, yes if you can handle THAT Finish like you have shown us improve your scoring where it's extremely rare to fall under 59 be at least threatening on any two or three dart finish and lethal on the Bull, then you will surely get to county level. Good luck.

I've just stumbled across this vid and to be fair to the lads who've already commented,,, they're right,,, that pressure you face, you cant replicate unless your actually in a game which means something, I've played a woman in the league, and even though I knew I'd beat her (probably had average of 35/40) it's the pressure on yourself to win, I'd take that kind of pressure any day, and that's not being big headed it's the adrenaline you get, and I've been playing for about 8/9 years and give me a game against a div 1 player anyway. BTW I'm div 2 singles champion of Worcester 2017, got to play Chris Mason, cocky fucker tried to finish 40 with D10 D10 I had a 96 finish T20 D18 and that shut the fucker up. Well done tho pal, defo subscribing cos u neva know i might be on that stage at minehead 1 day😂😂😂 (and then I woke up)

I started playing darts in the pub leagues from Oct of last year at the age of 37. Since then Ive been obsessed in trying improve my game, with the hope of one day giving Q school a good go, and hopefully get a tour card. After a bit of experimenting with dart weight and styles I made my first break through. I looked at Phil Taylors method and wondered how he hit his targets, so I started to copy his style, not knowing at the time he was right handed and left eye dominant. So I ditched the 1st ever set of darts I bought Steve Beaton 24g and went to 27g harrow bombers. Me being right handed and right eye dominant I twicked Taylors trowing style to come down from above my right eye then release in a straight line instead of coming across from the left. After a couple of months I wanted to improve more as I was failing to hit the low doubles to often. So I switched to red dragon torpedo 26g darts, once again I was getting good success but it wasn't enough, not in my mind. I was still getting the odd wayward dart, and read somewhere in order to improve you must go outside your comfort zone. So I did I've now switched my dart again to a straight barrel 21g dart by data darts. It was very difficult learning to trow with this style of dart it's so light, the barrel is only 5.8mm thick I'm used to 7 to 8 mm thick barrels, plus the barrel is so long too compared to the bomber/torpedoed shapes. But now I would never trow with any dart above 22g. Anyway enough about me, I really liked your videos and have a couple of questions. 1) would you try q school in the future. 2) will u make another video in a months time to see how much your Ave goes up again. Ps I'm in practice to play Micheal Smith, my local Is getting me a sponsor card so I can have the chance to meet and play him. So excited glad he dropped from 24g to 22g he's even better at that weight, hell be world champion soon, you heard it hear first 👍

The best practise i found for doubles is playing round the board on doubles....1-20 then outer bull then bull.....then repeat the game 2 or 3 times before playing 30 legs of 501. Also dont just leave the same double you like in games....leave as many different ones as possible that way you open up new possibilities when it comes to leaving outshots at the end of a match. What most people fail to do is move their feet...if you want a double on the left of the board, move accross....dont just stand where you normally stand....if you keep your shoulder in line with the target you dont need to twist your body....then all you need to do is make sure your arm follows a straight trajectory.

I started playing when worked offshore on the rigs. Every evening we got together 3/4 hrs a night and done that for a couple of months wasn't straight of course. I never knew a single check out at all but it starts to sink in and you do get to a stage after a couple of months if your less than 80 or a 100 each time its a poor visit.......Like a lot of things work and family come into play so the darts took a back seat..Will get back into I think, so you have given me some inspiration there and some good darts being played. Keep up the good work but just a small thing, would rather hear the darts going in than that music.

Nice video & good results. I play on average 30mins to a hour a day. I need some advice on finishing techniques if poss? For example the 81 route would be T19 D12. If miss T19 and hit S19 then T12 D13 Miss Treb 12 and hit S12 then bull:) My maths is my nightmare! but if I can remember the routes my game would be much better. I hit x5 180's in under 10 mins today & hit x7 140's in a row 2 days ago so my scoring is improving but my finish's is the problem:( & when I use my scoring app It starts off at 0!! average and I have to raise it up as I play? Unsure how yours went from 100% down.

@@lennartleopold8892 dunno. I was gripping the dart too tight and having to actively let go which was very inconsistent. I'm now sort of resting it on my fingers and it kind of falls out upwards when I throw. Don't know how to describe it. Anyway the dart comes out from the same vertical point and is more consistent vertically on the board. I still throw my 26s sometimes but I'm getting more trebles. I had two 60s and a bounce out the wire yesterday!

I love your concept of tracking progress on a graph. How do you calculate a terrible game into your averages? I’ll be averaging about 30 darts a leg and then have a game where I can’t buy a double until after over 50 darts and my averages are destroyed. I don’t have a computer-opponent on an app to play against and if I had real opponent, he would have finished the game well ahead of my misery. Would you suggest that I cap my number of darts for a terrible leg? Perhaps a limit of 40 or so for a player of my level to get a more realistic score or just deal with an average that has been nuked? Any comments would be appreciated. Keep the videos coming! They’re helpful. Good luck in your year-long experiment.

I used to lick my fingers on my darts throwing hand years ago and would quite often feel a bit sick in the stomach next day after comp night. Then one comp night I went to the toilet just before my singles match and the guy I was about to play had a pee and zipped up and walked straight out without washing his hands. I washed mine but then had to go out and shake his hand at the start and end of the match, it took me some time to get out of the habit of licking my fingers for a better tackier grip when I threw but when I did I no longer felt sick after comp night and some times touch knuckles with opponents who I have witnessed being grubbs.

Do you have any videos breaking down your throw? My problem is I can’t throw conventionally. My eyes won’t adjust looking down the barrel. As such im a side face thrower, like yourself. I’m having trouble sorting out consistency. I know part of it is mental, but part of it has to be mechanical and it’s driving me nuts. Your throw looks similar to mine where you push through the dart and your shoulder moves into the throw which conventional dart throwers say is wrong. Most videos highlight that there should be next to no movement behind the elbow, but your throw appears to have quite a bit of fluidity from elbow to shoulder. Trying to find a way to improve my mid-game scores and accuracy. I’m pretty good at lasering down at doubles, but I’m absolute shit at scoring, at least in competition. Hit 7x 180’s this year in practice including 2x back to back, but have still never managed more than 140 in match play.

Do you have any recommendations for arm/wrist soreness? I feel like when I play or practice hard for a few days, my arm gets tight. It's not painful and I can certainly play through it. But I feel that's not the ideal way to improve muscle memory. Do you feel it's better to take breaks and practice when rested? Or just grunt through it?

I currently do about (2) 30 minute sessions per day. That seems to be ideal for me to stay loose and keep fresh. However, if I throw for 4-6 hours/day or have a long tournament weekend, I definitely feel tired and it affects my throw for a several days. Your heavy practice experiment caught my attention on this. It's safe to say that quality in practice should be just as important as quantity. And I feel that our goal should be fine detailed muscle memory. And not sure how well that works when muscles are overused from just brute hours of throwing. Maybe there is a point where we build enough strength to get passed that initial soreness hump so we can have longer more effective practices? Great channel and videos by the way! You're growing some great content and quality is great. Keep it up!

15 - 20 hours a day?? surely you mean a week. If not how did you find the time to eat and sleep. Great video tho and nice darts thrown. I am 54, i was in a team 20 years ago but have not played since. I have recently just picked up some arrows to get back in to darting. I spent 3 hours practicing before i took on 10 legs..... i managed an average 47.87(my arm is killing me lol) also i wish i had some automatic scoring, i have to enter data in to my own spread sheet after each throw, that takes time and breaks my rhythm. After day 1 i am more than happy with 47.87, lets see what tomorrow brings. Thank you for your videos and the motivation they give.
