Report Lori January 11, 2013 10:26 PM GMT
No, itfc definitely t20 fwiw.
Report Lori January 11, 2013 10:28 PM GMT
Depends Schalke.

For instance for optimal scoring I should be aiming near the bull at the wire between the 8 and 16. That means I hit a large number of 25s and bulls and also score 14,16 and some lucky trebles more often than I'd cover those scores by trying to hit t20.

Half decent players can aim at t19, if they have an average around 45 or so. Beyond that I think you aim at t20 if I'm understanding it right.
Report Lori January 11, 2013 10:28 PM GMT
(I'm always going to go for t20 though, unless there's money on it)
Report Schalke 04 January 11, 2013 10:30 PM GMT
Just meaning cause all i do is look at where I want to hit and throw ... aiming as such would mean pointing the end of the dart at exactly where you want to hit in your line of sight
Report Lori January 11, 2013 10:31 PM GMT
Wording that differently though, I'm bad enough I should be trying to hit the wire between 8 and 16, and it's a significant scoring uptick too.
If I got better I should stop doing that though. It's more a fun exercise in maths than anything, although I think some poor but serious players should certainly consider going for t19
