| Use any of the useless movable point darts that everyone had in the 90's.
Or better yet, have Eddie customize a set of steel tip darts for £15. |

| The problem with heavier darts on a soft tip board is the impact of the dart at the board causes worse bounce outs. Yea they still may count but your picking them up a lot. My buddy has some 21 gram conversions and they bounce out all the time. The lighter the dart the less bounce outs |

| Same ones I use lip points. It's the weight of the dart. I have an old Halex board that you could barely get 18s to stick in but 16 and 14s no problem |

| Do you have a dart shop near you Saber that you could go and try some darts.
JD's idea of getting a set of steel tips modded to take soft tip points. |
