PostSubject: Best Dart Book ever!   Best Dart Book ever! EmptyWed Jun 20, 2012 12:15 am

My opinion is Darts Beginning To End By my mentor George Silverzahn. Why? Well it covers how,what, why.
Many books are just an autobiography of what the guy did and to be honestly I wanted something to show me how to play the game, discuss ya grip, your equipment, your stroke, your mental game, Dart exercise routines that aren't boring and too hard for beginners. A way to progress from Beginning to end. And you get to e-mail and talk to the author !!!!! about questions and actually get answers!! Of course ya get some of his and others experiences. What to avoid , what to do if say this is happening to you. Simply said if read and applied you will be the best you can be. George has dedicated much of his life to advancing darts and helping people. I just wish I was younger when I met George. His stuff works I'm living proof .
I was in my early sixties when I bought the book and took up Flight School.
First season placed in the top ten shooters in top league!
Next season vote MVP for team and place again in top ten shooters.
Next season Voted MVP for team , TOP shooter in league and won the championship!
Since have been in top 10 shooters. Won 11 trophies and or awards in 2 years of playing.
I play steel but was asked to play in state soft tip Tourney - Placed second in the State.
Enough already, but you get the idea ! Oh its lots of practice btw and not all wins but I just have to give credit where credit is due to my Friend and mentor George Silverzahn and the book "Darts Beginning to End" and Flight School" Below in my signature is site to join flight school and its free for God's sake!!!

Thanks George !

I'm approaching 67 and me eyes are failing now but I feel that I can still play and place in the top ten shooters for the next year or two anyway.

I really enjoyed the book and It's just great that you could email him if you have any questions and he will provide you with what you could do improve on that area.. I feel that I might have to read it again soon..

I bought the e-book so I could read it whereever I was on my phone..

Bought it at amazon.com.. cheap and perfect for me.. I wouldnt mind a hard copy of it but the e-book costs nothing compared to get the book to my home.. hehe..



Love you George!

Yes George is very passionate, sharing and available to help everyone.

I actually had the privilege of collaborating with him on a methodology using the last digits. Basically you are keeping track of the last digit of your the score between 350 and Above 170.

You wanna make sure you don't leave yourself on a final number of 159, 162,163,165,166, 168 & 169.

Rule of Thumbs:

After the first two darts: If it ends in 9 or 3 shoot the T19 and if it ends in 8 or 5 or 2 shoot the T18 ... otherwise shoot the T20 Silly.

Or my more 19 Centric version is:

If it ends in 9 or 6 or 3 shoot 57. If it ends in 8 or 5 or 2 shoot 54. All others shoot 60.

Mac's right, you can only digest so much at a time, which I think is the best way but the book is a good reference to use for that.

Made a special order for the paperback version from our local bookstore for the book. Is there any site where I can buy the e-book version? Is the e-book only available in the US? (I live outside the US.) Thanks.

Well Saber, you sold me on it - I bought the e-book and am almost finished it and have to say that I agree completely. The man's knowledge of the game is amazing and it is pretty refreshing to have it presented the way he has - in plain English with comparisons to illustrate his recommendations. I am going to copy out all of the drills when I'm finished and start from scratch on my game. The way I look at it, I only have one way to go Very Happy Thanks for telling us about the book Saber.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Wow - all these great comments about B2E, and that it is available as an e-book on Amazon anywhere in the world, has set me to thinking maybe I should read it. :study:

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] But -- I think I know the ending, so ---- maybe not?

Laughing Thank you all very much and here's what I wish for you [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
