I think so!

LOL yeah that would be good.

But Bristow is not the same because of the dartitis and it is such a great shame, I really feel for him in that regard, probably still plays 1000 times better than me though

I've done the same, so that's one pinhead off and one broken ring, but got to say even though it's only been 2 days my grouping is improving. I think the cost is high considering there just plastic rings but still a great tool for helping your game IMO.

I've been fortunate to not break any i guess. But ya been using them on t15 and t16 and really has helped me focus in and even hit some nine marks on two numbers that i've really been struggling with

Hmm, did you both have the rings pinned tight against the board?

Maybe its better if they are a little loose?

I had them pinned a loose so they had a little give. the dart went straight through the hole meant for the pin, the pin survived. I still think they are a help and will continue to use them.

I see, well send them off and get a replacement.

ya if you hit the pin hole dead on they will break

The pin should bottom out to the back of the board, whilst still leaving enough room between the pin and the ring to allow it to move.

Just to clarify. Any broken rings will be replaced. Send the ring back in an envelope and a replacement ring will be posted out.

Update: So I have continued to use the practice rings, but instead of pinning them to the board I have taken about two inches of fishing line, ran it up the board and pined it there. . Works just as well with out hitting the pin or the hole. I since then have buried darts well into the center of the plastic on segments of the ring, and it has not broken. So I am going to rule that the ring weakness is JUST in the pin hole location. I will give them a bit more credit than I initially did.

sounds like your right as that is the part of the ring thats thinnest

Good to see a Manufacturer taking a pro-active approach to feedback in a Professional manner, Kudos to you Carldac.

Thank you chrisbamb

Hi, I also purchased the bigger pack of these and are getting on with them fine, i dont have a chance to practice every day unfortunatly but give them a go when i can. I have hit them quite a few times and have not had one break yet.

On another note just had my first game of '20 - 3' with the 3rd size ring and got it in 36 darts....those of you that have these, how have you done??

Hi Wattsdarts. Thank you for the feedback. 36 darts with the 'Advanced Ring' is not a bad score at all on the '20-3' game. Keep us posted.

Three Rings broken and fixed, good old superglue

Couple practices i did this weekend with the rings

first on was 9 d16 and 9 d8. Was not happy with missing big numbers to get my outs. These being a common one so put about a half hour each on them

second one was the 19 then d20. put another 20 minutes into that

then i did another ten minutes on the t20, nailing it on my first go. Wasn't a 180 but very happy with the grouping
