| I heard ( don't remember where) that blue is the best color because of the contrast of the board colors. Any info from you folks would be interesting. Thx |

| I was always told by the older generation you should use white stems and black flight - no idea why but I have always gone with black and white or one or the other.
Not adverse to using other colours but when stocking up I always seems to go for the black/white theme.

| As long as the flights and stems go together colour scheme wise then I don't care what colour they are lol |

| I like being able to see the dart fly which is hard to do with darker colors so I stick with white or yellow mostly.
I'm not bothered about stems at all. I use black because I got a good buy on a bulk order. |

| For a lot of years I used black stems (spider legs) and white flights. I have changed, but for some reason always preferred white flights. Now I'm using opaque or clear stems and flights and really like them. It makes it appear that my darts in the board are hardly there. In fact I was playing in a tournament, I was chalking my score and the person I was playing against threw his before I pulled them. He said he could not even see they were in the board. I think he'll be trying to soon as well. |

Interesting as I too prefer the white set up. Although I have some blue and yellow ones that I have to use up. Cosmo stuff. |

| I have used white stems since I started playing. Have tried other colours, but always come back to the white stems.
Flight colour I have no preference what colour I use. I used to use fluro colours that I did myself with highliter pens. |
