I know its a hard question but I have always wondered about Top Guns when they are looking say to score on the 20's- Do you look for a shadow, piece of tuff, the wire at the top, dead center ? just curious guys.

If there's an obvious hole left in the top of the T20 bed from a previous dart then I will use that as my focus, but generally I look at a point a couple of mm's below the top wire in the middle of the red bit.

If my first dart goes just low in the small 20 then I'd more than likely switch down to the 19's - this depends how much of the red bit I could still see though.

I tend to look straight at the lipstick itself if there is a mark or hole from my previous dart then that would be my marker for my next three darts. Sometimes there is a mark in the lipstick depending on how worn the board is but I would only use this if i cant see my previous dart holes. With the big number hitting I look for a vein in the white areas and just at the middle of the black areas.

Stay Special

wow that good stuff guys- I really appreciate the quick answers and gives me insight.

I must say that I aim for the lipstick itself, as Big said, but a hole, or another dart will work as a marker also.

But mostly I just throw the darts against the treble. I think most players would say that I aim the wrong way. But I can only aim with my left eye since my right eye are quite dizzy all the time.

But many times I just feel the board, I know where the doubles and trebles are without to much effort at aim.


But the best thing are to either go after a mark in the board, or maybe even just under/over the wire.

Keep Cool!

When I'm shooting for t20, I look for something a few millimeters above the top triple wire.
For single numbers, I just look at the middle of the fat bed.

I know my throw drops slightly when going for t20, so that is why I aim a little above the target.

great stuff from all of ya.
