>Spent about $80 on this one at Dick’s.

OMG!!!!!

There's a huge myth in the USA that good dart equipment has to cost a lot. It's what all the stores and dart shops want the customer to believe. Let me give you a few quick examples to help you better understand.

Here's one of the best dartboards on the market today. On sale for $64.

Because of how heavy a board is we're forced to buy them here in the states. Otherwise I'd steer you towards UK dart shops for everything else. You're new to this but if you want to know "why" then have a read of this short article written by a member here.

To give you a visual example check this out... Target darts released a bunch of new darts yesterday. Here are the actual darts that 16x world champion Phil Taylor uses. The darts are $158 from a popular American dart shop. Here are the same exact darts available from a UK dart shop. As you see, $83 and that before an 8% discount. So $77 actually. HALF the price!

Here one more example. Here's a "house brand" soft tip dart from a popular American shop. $84 right?

This is the SAME EXACT dart available at a popular UK dart shop for $16.67!! 5x less!!! Imagine paying $84 + local tax for a set of darts and then finding out they really cost less than $17. I'd be pissed.

The UK daart shops also have 100's of incredible 90-95% tungsten darts for around $20-$30. They have incredible 95% tungsten darts in the clearance section for as low as $14. So before you buy anything at all make sure you come here and ask us anything. I'm American by the way. I'm as pro America as anyone else but until these US dart shops stop trying to deceive the customers they can go pound sand. I'll send my money elsewhere.

I mean, this is selling on amazon for $100

That’s one of the reasons I like my Throwback All Day bag, it’s unique. The discs go in the outside pockets and the inside is basically a giant cooler. However I am now the designated beer mule for my friends, so that’s a little drawback.

This one is a bit rough. As I'm sure a lot of GM's don't really wish to just purchase a metric ton of minis, paint them and store them for their limited and exact use. Personally I have found a few... Cheaper alternatives.

1. Magic the Gathering cards. Sounds a bit silly but follow me. Hole punch the image out, some filler, glue them together and you get a sorta carboard-ish token with really nice art on it. And cheap as all god damn hell as I bought a box of 2k cards for ~$25.
   
   
2. 3D print that stuff. I know most folks may not have one available, but if you do you can print off some pretty great stuff for use.
   
   
3. Pathfinder. Yes, they still make the cardboard standie stuff for monsters. Here is quick one I found on amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pathfinder-Pawns-Bestiary-2-Box/dp/1601255004/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=Pathfinder+Pawns%3A+Monster+Codex+Box&qid=1555936626&s=kids&sr=1-2-catcorr
   
   ​
   
   Hope that helps out!

That looks like a modification of the cheap generic arcade stick case on Amazon. And there's no way in hell that thing is packing Sanwa buttons.

But hey, even if the parts are shit, that's still a cheap hitbox case. 38$ for a case, 50$ for a PCB, 35$ for buttons, 20$ in wiring, that's pretty cheap for a hitbox.

Aerobie Epic Golf Disc, Colors May Vary https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001EYIQZW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_lTBJAbA51N268

But why would you buy that when you can pay $20 more and get the backpack version which holds more discs, more drinks, more stuff, has side mesh pockets and can hold a single can in an easy to grab location (which is where I keep my speakers)!

https://www.amazon.com/Throwback-All-Day-Pack-Built/dp/B01MXKCYJX/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1499814291&sr=1-1&keywords=throwback+sports+backpack

If you have a ton of power especially if you grew up pitching or playing baseball an Aerobi Epic 100% is the best tomahawk disc you can throw. I would put any amount of money that it will go further than any other disc you can tomahawk. I can easily get 400 feet from a tomahawk out of it. The way it works is it will throw like a normal tomahawk disc but then if you can throw it hard enough and high enough it will do a barrel roll mid air and then glide for everrrrrr on its way down and its straight as an arrow. The only problem is good luck finding one, up until recently you could get them on Amazon or wherever I recently looked to pick up 2-3 more and I found a used one on Ebay for $5. Other sellers are asking $100? (lol) Keep an eye on this link hopefully they get more in stock as they sell it for 12-14 bucks.
https://www.amazon.com/Aerobie-Epic-Golf-Disc-Colors/dp/B001EYIQZW

Edit: I did find them on this website but I'm not sure it looks a little sketch like a website right out of the early 2000s. https://playground.epicsports.com/prod/74175/aerobie-epic-golf-disc.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjwkoDmBRCcARIsAG3xzl_RIOvhR0m40yiHdFDHROVMTyxQ8p6_EDRR8HRFJA8IwGX8OvkIVVwaAuseEALw_wcB

(Also when they are new they are very very hard to get them to flip over horizontally and will often flip and come down at an angle killing some distance. Either change the angle you release at to compensate and get it to flip correctly or just throw it a bunch let it fall from the sky and break in.)

Great, waiting for the post.
Sadly, I live in Egypt and there are no dart stores here. I depend on the posts to have an opinion before ordering something from Amazon.

I ordered one80 A-24g @ Nov 6th I think it is supposed to arrive next week. Hopefully.

That's what I have, it's close to what you described... can't put ice in it, but ice packs work. There are cheaper versions too.

I don't know much about the quality, but the Throwback Sports bags have coolers.

The old version of backpack used the entire main compartment. The newer one has insulated side pockets. There's also a smaller bag with less disc storage.

Or One80 Gladiator

UltraPro makes a passable zippered quad row binder but the card pockets are generously sized if you're just looking to Perfect Fit your cards, but they are taut enough to be kept in the pocket (they just might slip to an off center position).

Ultimate Guard makes quality binders, I don't personally have one of the zippered Quad Row models but the Professor has a positive review of them. If you're not 100% fixated on the zippered aspect I'd definitely check out Dex Protection's 12-pocket binders, they're very high quality; I have 8.

Don't forget to mention how cheap it is. A basket is like $250 including the theft-proof lock system. You only need a few baskets to make a satisfying course. Not even 9, but people might get mad at me for saying that because they be like "nah man you need at least a half course" I found just three baskets to be enough in a triangle formation. Of course it would be easy to jam pack the course in that condition. I'm just listing some ideas that may be helpful to consider. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00HXM48Y2/ref=mp_s_a_1_10?qid=1426781635&sr=8-10&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70&keywords=disc+golf+basket

first repointing attempt: https://m.imgur.com/AnF7WhT

I don’t have a before picture because I am not much of a planner.

The darts are some of the Amazon 24g One80s that have been discussed here before.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XXK2QCS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_rL2QCbC6BQFK7

They came with short silver points Which I got tired of scuffing up constantly so I swapped in some longer gold points from DC clearance corner.

Used the Designa re-pointing tool. Worked very well and seems to be a very firm hold with no Loctite needed.

However I tried another re-pointing immediately afterward with some harrows laser etched points and some V180 Brian Woods darts, and the points fell out almost immediately afterward lol. So I am 1 for 2 and some loctite is on my shopping list.

Hi folks -

​

u/chuckdeezoo beat me to this question for the day... and instead of creating a new post, I'll just piggyback... or perhaps Robin hood onto his topic. ;-)

​

So the question I have and perhaps, this might help u/chuckdeezoo also...

​

What's the better way to go for Winmau boards? The standard Blade 5 or the Dual Core Blade 5?

​

Winmau Blade 5 is on sale for $65 (US)

​

The Winmau Blade 5 Dual Core is $89 (US)

​

Any thoughts on the difference?

​

Thanks!!

My buddy and I were also experiencing the same problem. Ended up getting a blade 5 and viper surround from Amazon. I can't recommend them enough.

However, if you don't have the means (or patience) to save money and wait to get a board, I almost bought one of these:
Use the force

The only downside, is the color scheme isn't traditional.
But from what i've heard...they are pretty decent.

Another option is the Viper boards on Amazon Meh!

Although...if you are going to spend $35...you might as well spend $60 and not have to replace for a while longer.

Do yourself a favor - Winner Winner

The Topeakmart version is $2 cheaper...

this is what i have. its essentially the same basket. obviously it doesnt catch as well as a legit basket, but its way better at catching than the innova traveler baskets. takes probably 2 minutes to take apart.

I’m not sure how long the hole was. UDisc says 218 but the sign says like 252 so I’m not sure, there was quite a bit of that there it looks like they recently went through and reworked everything, cleaned everything up. I threw a meteor esp that was bright green. It was a blast the course is called Tittabawassee Trails. Oh and the bag is a throwback.amazon link to the bag

Here me out on this one. I started playing about 6 months ago and have been using this bag for about 4 months. It’s lightweight, seems durable, currently I have 13 discs in it (i would say maybe 20 is the max), the left pocket fits my large water bottle in it with ease, the insulated pocket can hold 5 beers or two waters. I’ve been pretty happy with it so far and for price it’s a great value

Looks like Amazon is bumping the prices up a little on the Chinooks, but a few One80 darts are back below $25 with free one day shipping.

i got the deck builder's premium pro (4 wide) binder and love it.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DA81HYQ/

it was on one of the tcc review videos. my sister ended up getting the same binder after she saw mine.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01NAL48FU?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title&th=1

I think I remember reading they did discontinue the Nutsac.

Still some on Amazon but they're $50.

This looks similar for half the price. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MULLB4X/ref=sspa_mw_detail_0?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Looks great!

I highly recommend upgrading to a Blade 5 (or v4) dartboard though. I can see that the spider (metal wires that divide the board into segments (for anyone not familiar) is starting to lift up around the bullseye. This leads to more bounce outs. Once you go with a Blade, it's tough to go back to a the older style boards.

Ultra Pro Deck Builder's Premium Binder

Some people dont like Ultra Pro and prefer other companies. This one is one of my personal favorites. Cover feels solid and I appreciate the zipper around it.

I like to use portfolio binders like this one for complete sets.

Such a fun course, and such an epic hole!

While you may not be pricing the cards, using the pricing guide on tcgplayer.com is a good place to start organizing specific sets. It can also give you a general market value for all conditions as you are organizing. If you see the market value on a specific card is much higher than others in the set, you should consider protecting that one with penny and hard sleeves(or depending on the card, perhaps more than that). If you are going to store your cards in binders, i recommend these sleeves for inside sleeves and these sleeves for the outside soft sleeve prior to putting in a binder like this or like this.

I recently just stepped up from my small sholder bag to a full backpack and found this one fairly cheap on Amazon. I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and have no complaints. I love the big two side pockets and front zipper pocket, as well as the front pocket from my putters.

Also calling the disc a frisbee is considered a totally noob thing. But like wook said you are aiming for a basket with chains

Will the cardboard hold up overtime? Cabinets take up space and force a LED TV to be comfined.

The link below has a precut control box you can then customize with your choice of buttons and control colors. You might end up using your $50 but this should hold up over time. I lack the power tool components and skill to create a cabinet. But I know the cabinet gives arcade play that "arcade play" feel.

A+ for resourcefullness on your build and materials! Hell, cut a slot for a quarter while you're at it!

Easiest/cheapest way to get a good variety quickly is to use the Pathfinder NPC codex box. Lots of variety and pretty inexpensive. They also have the bestiary box.

What we do at our table is use the cardboard for PCs and then actual mini figures for the NPCs/bad guys. Its an easy way to know who is good and bad on the battle field.

Everytime I did that stuff it didn't work as planned. I mean you got the box already grab some buttons and a joystick and make it fit. There are some really nice diy plans for a single player setup.

Hey OP check this out! I have the shoulder strap version which is $50 and it's unreal how nice it is. This backpack version has two insulated cooler pockets to keep your drinks ice cold, space for plenty of discs, putter slots on each side, two bottle holders and the upper compartment can be packed with whatever other things you need (towel keys etc). It also has very sturdy rubber feet on the bottom and the back of the bag is padded.

I think it's the best value for the $
