| >>>>>>>>>> CHALLENGE CLOSED <<<<<<<<<< <<<<<<<<<<  DARTS NUTZ WEEKLY CHALLENGE >>>>>>>>>>The Darts Nuts Weekly Challenge returns after a short break for the World Matchplay. So what better way to return than with a popular challenge from a few weeks ago thought up by Hatrick. " Ok people this one is totally off the top of my head but maybe we can give it a try anyways?? Lets call this one "cover shot" Now most of us pound away at the 20's for scoring but when blocked some switch to 19's and some switch to 18's. For this challenge I want everyone to throw 2 darts at the treble 20 then with your 3rd dart throw the cover shot at the treble 19. If you hit the treble 19 give yourself 3 points, if you hit any other part of the 19 double included give yourself 1 point if you miss the 19 all together take away 2 points. Do this 10 times with a cover shot on 19's then do it 10 more times using the 18 cover shot. Highest score wins pretty easy and maybe this will help some of us with our cover shots when the 20's are blocked. Good luck and cover your asses!!! "
Hat  I remember quite a few members had a go at this one and I also remember it was a good challenge that certainly does what it says on the tin, helps with cover shots.  <<<<<<<<<< CLOSING DATE: 3RD AUGUST, 4PM GMT >>>>>>>>>>
Hatrick ...........................41
Maverick.........................29
Rebel..............................20>>>>>>>>>> CHALLENGE CLOSED <<<<<<<<<<

| It was a good one this, and only takes a few minutes so people can have plenty of tries. |

| Had a few goes tonight but had to wrap up after 30mins or so as my arm was hanging off, best I managed was a respectable 20, a few trebles in there to make up for a few missed darts. My aim next time is to eradicate the misses to give myself a chance of a much better score, but quite happy with 20.  |

| Not as good as last time but it was enjoyable all the same, you should do well on the first half of this one Grip, in your last chatbox match you were peppering the T19's with ease mate  This is one of those that unless you get an incredible score or a huge amount of lucky darts you always feel you can go at least a point or two better next time, well worth a crack and good practice. |

Yeah I was doing ok on T19's but the T18's were letting me down, hope I do better this time though. |

| Well not much of a challenge this week as only 3 members posted a score, but well done to Hatrick all the same, a great score of 41 would have certainly taken some beating  Final Leader-Board:  Hatrick ...........................41  Maverick.........................29  Rebel..............................20 |
