| Yup started for me two days ago, went from consistent 60-110 plus throws to 26s and 45s. Weird thing is bulleyes still relatively easy to come by. Just drifting out of 20's and 19's really |

Amazing Mac the same here! Closed out a Cricket game with a hattrick. keep in touch buddy . IMO probably focus again. But don't forget to let me know what happens and I'll do the same for you. |

| I always had it lol!
its always into the 5's and sometimes when I move on the oche it will go into the 1's but even when moving I still manage to hit the 5's. I think its how I initially line up the dart and release it which is the cause for me, I am trying to resolve it too. |

| Just don't worry about it - us mere mortals get it all the time, and the more you think about it the more it will happen |

Yep..... rotate the board so the 20 is in the 12 position. |

Yep..... rotate the board so the 20 is in the 12 position. Got to be worth a try |

| I often drift into the 5's, but yesterday I had my best session ever on the 20 segment, I hit 17 in a row and believe it or not the 18th hit the big 1 and not the 5's lol
I seem to have a point somewhere around the right of my right eye, where if I start and follow through along that line I can hit the 20's better, I just need to be able to consistently repeat it which is the part I struggle with! |

I try to adjust the vertical axis with the arm. i can't front sight it all the time since i tend to foloow the groove of the throw, but it lets me lock it in when i need to settle down. helps me swing the dart over the top of the throw also. |

| Interesting Rum, I think sighting is an important part, before I was starting somewhere near the middle of my face as I am left eye dominant, but since employing a slightly longer drawback I keep hitting my face with the dart, but starting where I did yesterday seems to be the sweet spot for me, next time I play I will probably have to get in the groove again to find it once more, but will keep at it until I find it naturally everytime. |
