(Part 2) Top products from r/Darts

To be honest, you'd be better off buying something else, non darts related with that gift certificate. When we say the darts are an absolute rip off at Amazon... that's putting it lightly.

Although... check this out HERE If you have to gets darts at Amazon those aren't bad at all. I play with One80 darts. Seems to be about 6 different models there.

But I would HIGHLY recommend Darts Corner for purchasing darts. You'll wait a week for delivery but you'll also be buying the highest quality darts for like $20 a set.

edit... also see u/fjordblue59 he is selling some really nice darts super cheap and you'd have them in a couple days. Hell, he'd probably trade you for that gift cert? Honest guy though. Have no worries with him.

Is it this board that you're talking about?

They use this board at the pub next to my work. I play on it during my breaks and after work. It's a good board, held up pretty well, and its easily going into a year of use at the pub.

I'd recommend it over the Viper board. IMHO, you can't go wrong with Winmau or Unicorn dartboards. They're all great quality boards for the range and pricing.

edit: at only $10 more than the Viper board, Its a steal. Get this one if you're looking at a board in this price range.

It really depends on what you are looking for. I've used plenty over the years. For at least 15 years my go to was the White Horse Case. Lately I've been trying to downsize though and have progressed from that to the Casemaster Elite Jr. to the Casemaster Salvo, and then on to the wallet style cases with the Bulls Trifold Wallet Deluxe Dart Case which is the right concept that I wanted, but way too floppy and the dart retention sucks (the darts will just fall out of it if you're not careful). Right now I'm using the Target Montana Wallet which is all the way at the other extreme - retention is great but it is way too stiff and fat for what I want. I'm thinking of trying the Target Carrera Wrap Wallet next if anyone has any experience with it and can give me a heads up on it.

edit: I actually really like all of the above, by the way, just haven't found the one that is perfect for me yet.

I'll second the good cricket app.

The author of this book did an ama on this sub a little while back How to Master the Game of Cricket https://www.amazon.com/dp/1983046752/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_FuMnDb9EE48TH

Even for someone who's been playing forever there's some good stuff and it's probably a great starting place / rough draft as far how to program the bot to play with a solid strategy.

I figured it was for aiming, it is nice. The most I've done for helping with aiming is taking a hair tie and needle pinning it to the board in an attempt to get all three darts in.

Now that I think of it, I have a bunch of these that would be perfect for aiming stickers.

Good luck on your 180, I've only ever had 2. Today I switched my grip ever so slightly and was hitting 140's more than I usually do.

Haha...I actually just switched points on these darts about 20 minutes ago to 38mm and kinda liking them with these at the moment. But yeah, below are the links on Amazon. NOTE; I got 10 Sets of the 53mm and just know that I measured them and they are actually 51mm in length.
They also have 43mm available on Amazon from the same seller and I included those links also, I got 10 sets of these to try too. Also note that a few of the listings are Free Shipping. And I had to order separately because when I tried to order together they wanted to charge shipping.

I installed these cork tiles behind my board, in a 3x3 grid. The main reason was to mask and prevent further holes in the basement drywall (I suck). Noise reduction was an unexpected bonus. It's a Unicorn Eclipse Pro board, with the mounting bracket installed on top of the cork. I've been pretty happy with the setup thus far, although the included adhesive strips were inadequate. Accurate shots are mostly inaudible on the main floor of the house.

Thanks for the advice. Found these online, looks like a pretty solid deal.

Does your husband need a board and surround as well ? If not the stand alone is £45

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gorilla-Stands-Unisexs-Dartboard-96x15x14/dp/B00I7P2IU0/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=gorilla+darts+stand&qid=1574079943&sprefix=gorilla+darts+&sr=8-1

It's what I used to use. Great stand to be fair.

I've had the same idea before but it ends but being more convoluted to be honest. I bought the darts scorer linked below which does exactly that, and it's not very good. You really are better just entering the score.

Amazon Prime, two day free shipping:

Professional Quality Dartboard

Darts that are more than good enough for the average player.

If you have Amazon Prime that will be shipped to you in two days for a total of $80.

If you want to get nicer darts but have them by this weekend, you'll have to order from AZ Darts, link in the sidebar.

After seeing the other post with storage boxes I checked Amazon and I believe I found the same container. It's the Plano Tackle Box and I ordered one for myself already. Looks like a good deal to me.

Whack up the board with a surround, then just fill in the wall at the end! That's what me and my housemates did, and whenever the landlord came round hide the board with a mirror. Simple work!

​

However, I'm sure something like this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gorilla-Portable-Dartboard-Professional-Lifetime/dp/B00I7P2IU0/ref=asc_df_B00I7P2IU0/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=214529524006&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3220163538891576364&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1006476&hvtargid=pla-360299262144&psc=1&th=1&psc=1 would work fine.

I would absolutely agree with all of those recommendations and add this as the only listing on US Amazon I have recommended to anyone.
https://www.amazon.com/ONE80-Tungsten-Professional-Steel-Checkout/dp/B01MRKLT4W/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1539922957&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=tungsten%2Bdarts&dpPl=1&dpID=51obMGNz5%2BL&ref=plSrch&th=1&psc=1

Found this one but it doesn't even come close design wise.

The Author because I wrote a book dedicated to u/yeotajmu and u/worldwidedarts - “Can’t Get It Out” by Brand New (just because that song goes hard)

That is just a case of you losing that nifty oil/sweat layer on your finger tips.

In the wintertime I used O’Keeffe’s Working Hands Hand Cream it’s really really good stuff and they even make a pocket sized one so if it’s really bad, reapply once you’ve finished a leg.

I got a zapp rubber throw line mat from Amazon in December that is really nice. It was only $49 at the time, but the price has gone up since then.

Winmau Diamonds all the way.

Cheap but you've still got the bevelled edges which really make a difference.

£25 on Amazon

I have a unicorn Striker board, which is more than enough for my (casual) darting-needs

As for darts, it depends on how heavy you like your darts, but I have one set of 21g darts and one set of 23g darts, each for about 20$, with extra flights included

53mm from Amazon US.
