| Hi guys Troll wanna ask question. I am playing like I play .But when I turn lights off. I play much ,much better . My stroke is at level I couldn't imagine was possible for me. No tension ,no forcing things. It is like darting haven.All is natural and happy. But when I turn light back. I become regular me. In dark I don't see trebles,I cant play proper game ,but if I need to choose I would prefer staying in dark. But maybe Players can give me some advice? |

| Troll, I have heard that throwing in the dark is a remedy used for Dartitis. In the dark, you dont over think or stress about hitting your target, thus allowing you to have a relaxed throw. |

| When I'm at my cabin ,during winter, the sun is gone by 5;30 or 6;00. I have no power, just candles and a small reading light clamped above the board. I find it has been good practise as I have to really focus on my throw. It is a little odd at first as you don't really see the dart flying, it leaves your hand and magically appears in the board.
For the record I have got more 180's up there then home, but I really believe that's because I spend wayyy more time practising and substantially more rum is consumed |

| sounds good, I will try it, may need to put protection around all breakable things first though. |

| I like the idea of this, as I think I am currently over thinking and tensing up - so I think this could help cure it. Although I don't think I will be able to do it in my Mum's Kitchen - there is already enough holes in the wall! |

Is there a possibility to transfer this level of game to light? |

| As far as I know Troll, no there isnt.
But I think what may happen over time is your brain and arm will remember what to do so it becomes second nature to just walk up and throw relaxed. |

| Im working on something similar, trying to bring my shed form out to league. At home, I can shoot 24-26 ave, but in league I tend to sit a bit below that.
I think the main reason for that is that my practise ave is inflated a bit by playing the computer on a level that is slightly better than myself, hence I lose a lot of quick close legs. |

| Now please do not laugh at me but I have found a similar thing happens to your stroke when you out of focus on your target!!! yes I said out of focus, you sort of look at your target then you sort of go out of focus and every thing goes blury and your muscle memory takes over. I cant quite explain where to focus or how I came about this but it seems to work for me however I have never used this technic in a game and do not recomend anyone else to do so.
Ok you can laugh now |
