Let The Games Begin! [VIDEO]
Over the past year I have been getting more and more involved in the game of Darts. I was really hooked when my good friend Reaper built me a custom set of darts and I have been hooked ever since.
When I started to throw it started with a small group of us and now we have a pretty good group of people that usually throw every Wednesday at Jake's at 50th and Slide.
What makes this really cool is anyone is welcome to come and throw and that includes people that have never even thrown a dart. I think that some people ruin the experience with anything when they take a sport of simple game to the extreme. If you have never thrown then we usually get you partnered up with someone that knows and we teach you the game. Now there are several games that you can play using darts but we usually play straight cricket with no points.
Now straight cricket is that you have to close out the 20,19,18,17,16,15 and finally the bulls eye. How you close any of those is by throwing 1 of your 3 darts and hitting the number you need 3 times and they have a triple spot and a double spot that you can hit and close it out.
It is a pretty simple game to understand and we have lots of fun and the first time you hit the bulls eye you will be hooked as well!
Anytime you see me out and about and I am throwing darts come up and say hi and let the games begin!
Here is one of the games that we play it is called 501 and you try to score 501 points to win the game. Checkout the video of this dude only using 9 darts to get to 501.
Yeah he's pretty good.
