Got these from Dartswarehouse in New Zealand, was sent on 20th July and I received them on 23rd of July, pretty amazing delivery speeds from the other side of the world!

The sites link is here: Click

They cost £28.21

They come in a slim pack and inside the darts are fitted with white short stems and pink Shot! flights. There is a point protector and a Steel darts holder and a little cloth bag to carry them in.

Personally I think the cloth bag and steel darts holder are a bit pointless, and would be just as happy to see a standard bar wallet or plastic case, but thats nit picking anyway as most people buy a specific case, so its no big issue.

As you can see from the pics the darts are straight barrelled but with a razor style grip.

As you may be aware I am not a big fan of aggressive shark/Razor grips, however the effect on these barrels is more subtle probably because the edges are wider spaced and not as sharply angled. One curious thing I found was that if I run my thumb from the front of the barrel towards the shaft, it almost feels like a smooth dart. As soon as I move the opposite direction the grip bites immediately.

The barrels are maybe a little long for me at nearly 52mm long, but I think the short stems help compensate.

Here is the pics as I measured them:

The one thing I was amazed by was the fact that with my scales each barrel weighed exactly 24g! affraid

Dont think I have ever had a set where all three darts weighed exactly the same, and at the stated weight too.

Here is the balance points with Medium, short and extra short stems:

I had a play with them for about 30 mins using them as they came, one thing I noticed was the grip seemed to help with the forward pushing of the darts, was quite a curious thing at first and I think it helped add a bit of extra velocity to my throwing of the darts, my first 3 darts were ok but I almost hit a 180 with my next 3 so had to include a pic of those too! Very Happy

This is my grip with these darts:

I still felt a little conscious of the grippines of the grip and felt it may have put me off a little, but think that these are not as aggressive as some razor grips so will be worth me persevering with them for a while and see if I get used to it.

Overall a very nice dart and of a high quality and standard.

+1 grip, great review. The pictures are great. I'm really interested in these; http://tinyurl.com/ca3fthr cause they look like a slightly grippier version of the Petersons I have but couldn't find a decent quality picture of them online. The DC picture doesn't make them look that great but those darts look lovely. Have you any other Shot! darts? Be interested what the quality is like?

No rush mate, I'm sticking with the Petersons for now, its more curiosity about the Shot darts than actual need. My curiosity costs me money unfortunately Smile

Cheers Grip, they do look nice. Is it a razor grip or more of a micro grip can you remember? Hard to tell.
