You certainly are my friend. Have a go as many times as you like.
Nice shooting by the way.

Keep at it Jamie, that 100 mark will be yours before you know it mate. It will be a great feeling when you crack it as well.

Lol, I managed a 120 with a kid watching me and chatting her head off. Made me focus alot more. But she was there the whole time, not coming in and out.

I reckon a pro could hit 200+ regularly.....would love to know what Taylor or Anderson could hit......can we ask them?????
On another forum that I have spent time on, they have this same 100 @20's practice challenge. I have seen scores posted by John Part, Bob Anderson, and Chris Mason there.
The scores that I saw were: John Part: 198 Bob Anderson: 191 Chris Mason: 187
Those scores were theoretically personal bests at the time of posting, but it has been several years since these scores were posted, so I'm sure they have all improved on that.
In any case... WOW!!!
Edit: Now that I think about it, these scores are extra amazing. If you were to hit a straight ton every time you stepped up to the oche, then allow a treble 20 for the last dart, that is still only 168!!

I like to look at those scores the same way you did John. Hitting a 5 mark every time you walk to the board for 33 consecutive rounds will give you a score of 168 or a hair over 5 MPR.
I would LOVE to see what some of these pro's could do in the practice room if they got hot. I think the 200 mark would be possible by a few of the top pro's. But even so, they would have to average 6 marks every turn!!! Put it another way they would have to hit a 5 mark followed by a 7 mark and repeat that pattern for the entire 33 rounds.
It would take a supreme effort by even the best of pro's to hit that number. I caught fire and hit 170 as my personal best and I am NOWHERE near what I've seen these guys do on the tele, so I could only imagine what they are capable of doing in the practice room.

Didn't one of the pro's recently say that Anderson (I think) was hot as in the practice room that he was throwing multiple 9 darters??

Ok, so just completed my attempt and I managed 144 with 2x 180s. I am reasonably pleased with that, but think I will have another go at the weekend, there is more there
