Don't like changing too often so hopefully have these for a while. Anyway heres what I have;

Barrell - Nodor 900 series (24g)
Length:48.5mm
Width:6.7mm
Stems - Deflectagrip nylon original
Length:48mm
Flights - Ruthless
Shape:Standard

Quite a long overall setup when all put together but I have always prefered a longer dart to a shorter one. Personal preference I suppose.

I had those darts a few years ago (not the ones in your pic though lol) I bought them from 9dart shop I think, think they sold em as Golden Eyes, my Dad has a 28g set the same.

great darts and nice creative place to shoot the photo!

I got them when I was experimenting with my weights because as far as I could see all the weights are the same shape wereas with other darts if you go up a gram or 2 the entire shape of the barrel changes. Didn't fancy this as I was happy with my grip and the shape of the dart. Seem to have settled with them so its all good.

I thought so too. You can guess where I was when I got the idea.lol.

Good thinking, and well done for sticking with them, I have never managed more than 10 weeks with the same set, and that was only done this year

iv stuck with these the majority of our season as i didn't want to start messing around between matches. I had planned on maybe experimenting when the seasons over but i think i'll just keep these and keep practicing rather than looking new darts to do the hard work for me.

I think your best if you can stick to the one set, unlike me, if you start experimenting too soon it could mess up your game, but having said that I think on the other hand, people should not be afraid to try something different, as you never know, but would be wise to do it in the off season.

Hamo is that the darts badge your team use or have you done some editing on the football badge? Is it the Mechanics Institute badge?

Yeah, its the one we use as a team on our t-shirts etc. The badge itself is just a basic badge that the stute as a whole uses. It just gets the wording and letters changed to suit whatever club its for, wether it be darts, football, snooker, staff t-shirts etc etc.

Take it you know the football team if you noticed the badge which makes me think you play??who do you play for??

I don`t play competitive football anymore other than a 6 a side league run through the summer. I played for Banbridge juniors from about 9-15 years old and then for Banbridge AFC for a few years. I just recognised the badge from my travels.

What league is it you play in?

We play in the mid ulster leages....The firsts are in Division 1 and the reserves are in Reserve 3 (the same as banbridge reserves). Banbridge reserves have had a disaster of a season played 17 - won 0 - drew 1 - lost 16

Good to have another local on here anyway

Banbridge seniors got relegated this year too, any half decent player coming through the ranks gets snapped up by Loughgall, Banbridge Rangers are probably the best team in the town at the moment, they have just won championship 2 and seem to be getting better and better....... but i actually meant what dart league do you play in

Ah right.my bad...were in the armagh darts league at the minute but there has been talk of joining the laurelvale and district league.mainly to cut down on travelling. U in a team/league yourself?

I played in the Vinters league when i was younger but haven`t played in the league for a few years now. I won an Open tournament in the town a few months back and the prize was playing Bristow in an exhibition in the Coach but i was away on a stag do in Berlin so couldn`t play him, that has encouraged me to start up a new team and we`ll be entering the Vinters league next season. I can`t wait to get back into it.

very good mate, ya must be doing something right to win that. It'll set you in good stead for the league starting.

I heard Bristow was doing the rounds a few months ago, bit s**t not getting to play him but im sure the stag made it a bit easier

I had a 28g set of these once upon a time, played well with them aswell. Then I went and left them on a bus....

I've hit my first 3x dbl bulls with a set of 28 g's...lol

Least they didnt end up down the Loo Hammo lol

Never thought of that.

Does make a nice background.
