Hiya,


This might sound stupid, but when you practice do you use 3 darts or more?

Kind regards,

Ross.

========================================================================

A friend of mine told me that the Chinese Diving team don't get near to the pool until they've mastered their technique in the Gymnasium. The Chinese coaches don't see the point of wasting time climbing out of the water and up the stairs for 50 minutes of every hour when those 50 mins could be better spent practicing. Does the same apply to Darts then? If you were holding 30 darts instead of 3 you'd only have to walk up the board 10% of the time. What do you think?

Targetted Practice

   I've been saying to myself for a while that I won't go to a Dart's club until I can go round the clock and hit all the fat numbers without missing. However my practice has been varied - going for twenties up to 1000; playing the "27" doubles game etc.

   Think from now on I will target my practice towards the goal of a perfect "round the clock".

Small Eurovision winnings.

Half an hour's Darts Practice.

Ate a big bowl of Bran Flakes today, a pizza slice, a bowl of ice cream and a bag of crisps.

Updates

• Still no word back from RBS - useless bastards. If no word tomorrow I will have to set up a new account elsewhere. That would be 3 weeks with no word from RBS after being told at the meeting that everything was hunkydory.
• Climbed Dumyat on a glorious Summer's evening last night. There must have been at least 50 people up on the hill.
• Today I've had a pot noodle and some homemade chicken burgers. The chicken burgers were excellent. Another hit from the Takeaway secret recipe book.


• Got half an hour's darts practice in earlier. It sounds stupid but I can see an improvement already.

Update

   I'm really tight for time at the moment. Off to Arran on a family trip tonight, back tomorrow night. Up early doors for work on Sunday then driving to England in the afternoon. Two long days in England before returning to work on Wednesday morning. Wenesday afternoon will be sleep catch up so therefore it'll be at least Thursday before I can crack on with stuff. Things are good now - I'm the happiest I've been in years!

   RBS have still to get back to me with account details so not back on Ebay or Amazon as of yet.

   Got half an hours darts practice in last night.

Innnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn One!

   Half an hours Darts practice just completed. Played a game I learnt off the internet called "27". You start on double 1. If you hit it (with 3 darts) you add 2 to 27. If you miss it you take 2 away. The you aim for Double 2. If you hit it you add 4, if you miss it you subtract 4. You continue around the board until you are bust. After a few tries of this I played round the clock. I wouldn't be comfortable about turning up at a club unless I could hit all of the fat numbers with one dart.

   Off to cut my back grass now.
