It just would not go in, I kept blocking myself etc etc....Should really have been low to middle 70's there! Apart from that I was throwing very well, barely got held up on any double.
Good username....NOT!

Ta very much!
How near breaking the ton are you at the moment? Do you practice much? I go through phases of playing lots then nothing for a few weeks, it's handy for me that I have a board in my room, some people have been complaining of having to play in their cold sheds!0 -

No cold shed or garage for me, I like to think of my place as a bachelor pad which in truth means I'm single & live alone Good news I have a board up in the kitchen and can watch all the darts I want without getting nagged to turn big brother(or any other BS program) on lol
My 1 & only full attempt is 126. I've started a few other times but quit or stopped counting because it was pitiful and frustrating. I don't practice per se, I'll throw for 5 minutes when I'm making dinner,doing the dishes or waiting for the kettle to boil. In the past I used to play again pc on no1 darts & was getting better but with things going on in life(or in my head) I find it hard to actually stop & just play for a bit. For over the last year I've had a fridge freezer in front of the board(not covering but upto bottom of cabinet) and currently have a load of paint pots & decorating stuff making it an obstacle to get the darts back 0 -

Well if you have done it in 126 then you're not far off breaking 100,so a bit of practice would soon have you there! it is a very frustrating game alright, my main issue is I can't find a grip or action that's repetitive, from one day to the next it always feels different! But still, I do love just chucking a few darts whenever I get bored, it's a good hobby! I don't usually go after doubles too much until I saw this thread recently, my normal task is to play 301 and the aim is to do it in 15 darts or less, some days it's easy (done it in 8 today) others I can go ages without doing it, either by hitting loads of 41. 45, 26 scores or else not being able to hit doubles.
Anyway get rid of all that stuff that's in the way of the board and get cracking that ton! Good Luck.0 -

The paint,etc is strategically placed there so I dont get distracted for the odd 5,10,30 mins by the board though and keep at my decorating Plan is to rent out the house in about month's time and move away so really cant afford any distractions lol 0 -
