Oche etiquette

Post by Grazer » Fri Feb 17, 2023 8:48 am

So this got debated last week amongst our team so I thought I'd bring it here too :)

If after you've hit the winning double, do you retrieve your darts before or after you've shaken your opponents hand? Do you consider one being rude?

Before, but it doesn’t matter.

Why shake hands at all.

Don’t socialise with losers.

Maybe he could have dragged Taylor down, we will never know.

I have always taken my darts out of the board first then shook hands with the opponent.

If they fell out before you retrieved them after shaking hands etc in theory it's not over.

It would need an absolute cunt of a referee to make that call, though.

True
Once they've called shot it's unlikely they'd renege

Once they’ve called game shot it’s over, regardless if they fall out.

Just makes sense to get away from the board if there’s another game on after.

I was always told if you hadn't retrieved the dart the leg wasn't over

Imagine in the 90s if the championship dart had fallen out after the glitter cannon had exploded everywhere.
